Here Kitty Kitty...

Hey guys!

Hope you all had a good weekend, it's been none stop rain here in Scotland so have been enjoying a rather quiet pyjama and Downton Abbey catch up sort of day :)

Also got some more Christmas shopping done online today - I think I only have about 4 more presents to get and I am done.

As suspected this week not a whole load of stitching got done courtesy of the Fallout 4 release, along with a number of other boring things which got in the way of my stitching time.

But, more work did get done on Row of Cats - this guys seems to be taking longer than the others, I'm not sure if it's the colours or what, but I am getting there. Just his face left now.

This week some new stash also arrived, a new DMC floss box, my first is overflowing now so one was needed, along with a new pair of scissors (you can never have enough) and all the floss I need for three projects I intend to start in the new year. Most is DMC along with one Weeks Dye Works and a Classic Colourworks, which I have never used before so it will be interesting to try that out!

I probably won't get an opportunity to update next weekend (we are visiting family) but I should be able to update the Monday or Tuesday after, me and David are both off work for a week so fingers crossed I should get some good stitchy time!

After that we are almost in December - eek! I'm getting giddy for Christmas already!

Every Stitch Counts Right?

Evening all!

I hope you have all had a nice weekend and ready for the week ahead (I am SO looking forward to my week off work in a couple of weeks time).

This week was a funny old week for me, I have just been out of sorts completely, went off the rails on slimming world, was late home from work a couple of nights, early in bed some other nights and the weekends weather has just been horrible here - the street lights were on at 2 in the afternoon here today!

All this meant this week hasn't seen the greatest amount of progress, but I did still manage to work on Lily during the week and Row of Cats today.

Here is Lily as of now, I am still way ahead on the HAED group challenge for 100 stitches a week this month so that's fine.

Here is how Row of Cats is looking tonight - you can't really see the white stitches on this picture but they are there along with the dark grey/brown ones!

So I will continue to work on Row of Cats until this kitty is done - fingers crossed that should only be another evening or so.

Although I will hold my hands up now and openly say I am not promising any great stitchy progress this coming week. Fallout 4 is released this week so there is every chance I will be spending a lot of my evenings playing that instead of stitching but that's ok!

This week I have also started to get some new year projects organised with ordering some threads and fabric - when those arrive I will share pictures!

Have a great week everyone
