Pumpkin Passport - Weekend 2!

Good Morning everyone!

Hope you are all having a nice relaxing weekend. Storm Gertrude was battering us yesterday with high winds and rain but seems to have calmed a little for now.

Before my weekend stitching starts I wanted to share where I am currently on my Pumpkin Passport - I am having a lot of fun with this at the moment!


I now have our female adventurer finished on her little scooter with a red double decker bus behind her crossing the river Thames! I think it's looking very sweet, and I am fairly confident I will be able to get this done in time for the second part to arrive (due to time differences, 2nd February).

Now I've got plenty of stitches in I am glad I stuck with this fabric, I wasn't sure about it at first but I think it helps to make the colours pop, I can't wait to see where we are visiting in February!

Until next time!

Small SAL 2016 - January Check In

Hello Everyone!

Today is the check in date for the first installment of the Small SAL hosted by Stitching Lotus for the year! Also my first finish for the year - hurrah!


Happily this months stitched up very quickly, it was one of those small kits they always have by the tills in Hobbycraft. I seem to pick some of these up every time I visit so I should imagine a number of these will make an appearance this year for the SAL.



I still need to decide how to "finish finish" this. Probably a ornament, but I have plenty of time before next Christmas to figure that out :)

Until next time!
