My rotation update!

Sorry I haven't posted for a while, it's been a hectic month making Christmas cards and even did a Christmas fair yesterday. I didn't sell much but it's useful knowledge as to what sells if I do any more.

Back to stitching, I started the month finishing 10 hours on Beverley's Owl. I'm actually stitching her again as she came out of my bag again so there's actually quite a bit more done than shown here. Anyway here she is!


Next out was the return of Frogs Kissing. I actually finished this column which I'm so pleased about! I love how this is stitching up even though it's been a pain to stitch!


Another of my SAL pieces came out this time, although as this SAL has now finished, I call it one of my WIPs now. So Sammy Squirrel came to play and as you can see I've nearly finished page 2 now. 



Last Friday I went to the Knitting and Stitching show at Harrogate. I go every year and always have fun but thought this time the prices were higher than I can get online. Possibly why it seemed quieter than usual. Anyhow, here's what I bought! Along with some toppers for my cards, I got Love Tree from Bothy Threads and a Hello Kitty design since I'm a real fan! Oh and some magic guide to start a new design on! 


And finally, tonight I got out my row of penguins advent calendar which I stitched years ago. It's so much more homely than a cardboard one I think. 


I hope you all have a fab Christmas, but I hope to post an update before then!

Happy Stitching! Xx

    1. Thank you - my hubby had a lot to restrain me! I really wanted Aurora Cabin, but it was a lot more than I know I can get it for online! And as for December - it's sneaked up so quickly!
