First TUSAL of 2019!!

Happy 2019 everyone!!

Hope your new year is going wonderfully! Mine so far has been pretty good.

December was pretty much a bust in the stitching department so most of these orts are from the new year. I have even managed a couple finishes so far this year! Things are looking up :)

Now for the stitching!

Halloween Rules by LizzieKate - My goal was to finish the Howl at the Moon block and I only managed to add "at the". And I am not going to add a new goal because I have since finished it!

Crazy Socks by Rosewood Manor - I hadn't set a goal for this one but I did manage to fill in quite a bit more on the border and since I am not sure when this one will pop up again I am not going to bother with a goal.

Hannah Lynn by Heaven and Earth Designs. My goal was 600 stitches. I only managed to get 211.5 in. My goal of 600 stitches will remain the same.

Alistair Alligator by Brooke's Books. My goal was to finish him and I did! New goal is to get the last 2 in this series finished.

Deepest Love by Mirabilia. My goal was to finish the page I was working on and the white pouf thing in her hand and I did! New goal is to finish all the stitching.

New start and finish! Joy a freebie from Pineberry Lane Designs.

Here are my silly boys on Christmas Eve with their new jammies.

The Semi Sane Stitchers group on Facebook is having a Stitch Through the Solar System event. 1 stitch equals 1 mile and so far I have stitched the diameter of Ceres, 590 miles, and Makemake, 1180 miles. Next up is Haumea with 1218 miles. Not sure if I will ever get Jupitar finished... 88846 miles in diameter!

I was also so very lucky to win an end of the year drawing in Semi Sane Stitchers and I got a Heaven and Earth Pattern. I chose Witches and Crones by Jane Wooster Scott. I would love to start it right now but I am going to finish Hannah Lynn before I start this one.

So that is it for this super late TUSAL post. It has been in a half finished state for 2 weeks now so this morning I made myself put everything else off until I finished it! Now it is back to laundry for me.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Happy Stitching!
