Quick update

Well it's taken me a while to get around to another post. All the hours I worked in December took their toll and I have been very tired for the last few weeks. So, I have seen sense and started to use the leave I have remaining to cut my hours to a reasonable number per week. I'm feeling a lot better for it and have got quite a bit of stitching done too.
First up is Snow White by LHN - this chart was a gift from Karan and I love it. Need to decide how to finish it now...so long as I do it before next Christmas that will be fine won't it?

Next is the 2011 Loose Feathers design. I have stitched the first two parts and really like the way it is looking. I will be stitching the final part very soon.

I am enjoying stitching birds at the moment - I want to do another papier mache box with a bird design on the top to store my small Yankee candles in.

Lastly I have re-started my AotH with Sally. I am stitching the bonus chart from AotH 12 and it is stitching up very quickly in a lovely colour palette. I always use the recommended threads when stitching Blackbird Designs as the palette is so pretty.

I treated myself to some stash in the JJs sale - the Ink Circles Seasonal Mandalas charts ( I had already started Winter when it was published in JCS magazine) and the Treble and Alto clef designs to go with the bass clef I stitched last year.
I still haven't decided on a plan for my 2012 stitching - I made a list of what I wanted to stitch but I'm not sure how far I will get with it! I have also signed up for a Spring themed exchange on Needlecraft Haven - looking forward to that!

Well that's about all for now - hope to be back soon with more to show!
