TUSAL #6 and another finish!

French Country~Lark finished!
Hurray!  I finished the French Country~Lark to donate to World of Charity Stitching.  It will be made into a quilt with several other French Country designs and donated to a nursing home resident.

Santa's 12 Days of Christmas (Day 2) update #3
Santa has a face and a hat!  I went to Michael's and bought one skein of floss that I needed for the turtle doves' wings.  I'm so lucky to live so close to Michael's, JoAnn's, and Hobby Lobby if I ever need anything. It looks like I'll be doing lots of stitching in red, as Santa's coat reaches from neck to boots!
TUSAL #6
My jar full of ORTs is growing all year long!  Don't forget to check in on DaffyCat's blog and leave a link to your TUSAL posting, too!

Just stitching away!

BBQ Queen update #11
My poor BBQ Queen has been neglected! I haven't stitched on her in 7 weeks!  This is my Wednesday SAL with Linda.  We are both stitching Diane Arthurs designs.  This week I stitched the red trim of her apron, but I still have to fill it all in with white.  The pink flamingo is waiting patiently for a body and legs, too!
Harley-Davidson logo (small) update #1
Now I'm stitching a smaller Harley-Davidson logo for my dad.  It is on perforated paper.  I plan to make it into a magnet for him.  The goal was to have it done by Father's Day, but I don't think I'll make it!
French Country~Lark update #1
I'm also having fun stitching this Lark for World of Charity Stitching.  They will make a gorgeous quilt out of all the designs!

Congratulations to Carrie, who won the giveaway of the Mr. Mittens chart!  I wrote everyone's names on slips of paper, folded them up, and picked her name!  She has been in love with Mr. Mittens all along, and I'm so glad to pass the chart on to her.

I'm going to work on my Pine Needle Basket tonight, so I can finish it during my last class on Saturday.  It was nice to learn something new, but I'm sticking with cross stitching until all my WIPs are done! Haha!

New SAL start for Monday!

Cackle update #1
Since Linda and I finished our Monday snowman SAL, we chose another chart from the Ultimate Crazy January Challenge to stitch on Mondays.  Our new SAL is Cackle by Raise the Roof Designs.  This is the start of a witch, even though my daughter said it looks like an octopus!  LOL!  I am stitching on a hand-dyed lavender 14 ct Aida from Stitchnmomma.
Santa's 12 Days of Christmas (Day 2) update #2
I missed four Sundays of my Sunday SAL of Santa's 12 Days of Christmas! Since last time, I have added Santa's hands and a sleeve.  Let's hope he has a face next week!
French Country~Lark
I started French Country~Lark last week for a quilt for World of Charity Stitching.  Each square will be a French Country design from JBW Designs and they will all be stitched in dark green.  Today I clicked on the Random Number Generator and it chose #60 out of the 60 starts on my WIPocalypse page, which is the newest one!  I hope to finish it pretty soon and mail it to WOCS.

Happy Stitching, everyone!
