It's Pancake Day

.....and like every year I'm out the kitchen for a few hours making pancakes for the hubby and kids. They can never get enough of them.

Hope you are all having a nice pancake day xxxx

Progress on 12 Days of Christmas

Well as promised yesterday here is an updated picture of my 12 Days project. I managed to finish the angel on the left hand side of the project.

I also have some more lovely orts filling up my jar for next month.

February 10th TUSAL

Well here it is. My Ort jar for February.

As you can see I have been busily stitching away. The threads are from my new start: Spring Fairy and from an older project: 12 Days of Christmas.

I'm hoping that for the next TUSAL I will either as many threads or even more as I continue to work on finishing 12 Days of Christmas in time for this Christmas.

I am planning on updating with a new progress pic of 12 Days in the week sometime. Want to finish the one bit I'm working on first

I hope that whatever part of the world you are from you keep warm and safe.

Until next time

Joan Elliott's 12 Days of Christmas Update

Good Afternoon everyone!!

Well here in South Wales, we are getting some odd weather.. One minute it is pouring down the next hailstones and then sunshine! The only that has been consistent over the last few days has been the strong wind.

I have however been getting some stitching done. I think I've made great progress on this project since the last time I worked on it.

I've finished labelling each of r boxes so next I'm going to start on the gold borders within each box then on the designs themselves.

Spring Fairy as of 27-1-2013

Good Morning everyone!!

Corr it is chilly here and awful dark too. Well this weekend I joined Heather in having a general stitch a long and I chose to work on fairy. Things didn't go to plan however and I've only managed to stitch a total of 1 and a half hours over the entire weekend, most of which was yesterday.

Fairy is now going away so I can stitch some more of 12 days of Christmas. I think it is about time I really got a wriggle on with project and I'm planning on getting it finished and framed before Christmas 2013. Achievable with a 5 month old? I hope so lol.

Here is how my fairy is looking now.

Hope you all stay warm and safe wherever you may be.
