April TUSAL

Hiya!!!

I am finally back on track and on time with my TUSAL post!

And here are my orts for the month.


And here is what I have been working on - 

Mothers and Daughters by The Victoria Sampler - My goal was to finish this bottom hardanger section.  I did not meet that goal.  I have it started and should hopefully be able to finish it by next TUSAL and really I need to because I am hoping to give this to my mom for Mother's Day.  So goal will stay the same, finish the bottom.


Ethan Elephant by Brooke's Books - My goal was to finish him and he isn't so my goal will still be to finish him and hopefully make a good start on the next one.


Rudolph Kranz by Kissy-Cross - my goal was to have this finished and I am pretty close so my goal is still to have this finished.


Hannah Lynn by Heaven and Earth Designs - My goal was for 1000 stitches and I only got in 396.5.  So I think I am going to lower my goal on this one and aim for 600 this time.


Halloween Rules by LizzieKate - My goal was to finish this block and I didn't manage so my goal will stay the same.


Deepest Love by Mirabilia - my goal was to finish her tail and get started on her skin and I did it!  My new goal is just going to be stitch more skin.


Spring Sampler by The Frosted Pumpkin - My goal was to have this block and the next one finished but I only managed this block.  Isn't it adorable?!  New goal finish the next block.


Hello Spring by LizzieKate - My goal was to finish it and it did!


Bloom by LizzieKate - Since I finished Hello Spring I started another LizzieKate freebie.  My goal on this is to have it finished.


And lastly an oldie has been taken out to play for a bit.  I added 481 stitches and finished 2 pages!  My goal for this is just to stitch as much as possible.  It is for a SAL so it will be going away once it is over.


And I think that is it.  Phew!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stitching!

March TUSAL

Hey guys!

I am finally back with another TUSAL post.  I'm all caught up and am hoping to post on time this month.  Keyword - hoping. :)

My little jar looks pretty empty this month but I have been stitching just not a whole lot of orts I guess.


Mothers And Daughters by The Victoria Sampler.  My goal was to have this finished and if I had any idea how to do Hardanger it probably would have been as that is all I have left to do!  But I have no ideas :) and had to wait until I got together with my stitching guild friends so they could point my needle the right way.


And they must be some super teachers because I did this!  Now I only have the bottom Hardanger section to do.  So that is my new goal - finish the bottom Hardanger section.


Ethan Elephant by Brooke's Books.  My goal was to finish him but that did not happen so my goal will stay the same, get him finished.


Rudolph Kranz by Kissy-Cross.  My goal was to finish it but once again I did not so my goal will still be to finish it.


Hannah Lynn by Heaven and Earth Designs.  My goal was 1000 stitches and I only managed a measly 306.5.  Pitiful!  But I think I will be keep my goal at 1000 for one more month then go from there.


Halloween Rules by LizzieKate.  My goal was to finish the "Carve a Pumpkin" block and the next one but I only managed to finish one.  New goal will be to finish the block I just started.


Deepest Love by Mirabilia.  My goal was to finish her tail.  It is so close.  New goal is to finish her tail and get started on some 1 over 1 skin!


Beatrix Potter Bunnies by LCStitchery.  My goal was to just stitch as much as possible for a SAL and I ended up with 520 stitches added in total so that is that many closer to the finish!  No new goal as it has been put away.


Spring Sampler by The Frosted Pumpkin.  My goal was to finish the first 2 blocks and I am very close to doing so.  New goal is to finish the second block and the third.


Hello Spring by LizzieKate.  My goal was to have it finished and my new goal is also to have it finished.


Well that is it for me!

See you all next month!
