March TUSAL

Not sure what a TUSAL is? Click the picture!

I feel like I'm about to go to some sort of addiction meeting...

Hi! It's been 3 months since my last TUSAL post...

Great start isn't it! I've been stitching so much I've not really had time for extra posts - even the WIP Wednesday posts have suffered the results of my stitch-a-thon!
My Ort jar on the other hand has not! I've had to squish it down once or twice just to make sure stuff doesn't fall out! What have I stitched?

Well...

Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL

At the time of the last post it looked like this
And at the moment it looks like this:

Randje per Week

Last TUSAL post it looked like this...
Last week it looked like this:

And this is the newest section I added yesterday

 

Ornament of the Month

Sadly I haven't finished any of them yet as I have so many other things to stitch.
They currently look like this. These are patterns that are free on my blog - check out the sidebar on the right for the patterns.

Fob a Month

I have done a little better with the Fob a Month than I have with the Ornament of the Month
January
February
March
I haven't finish finished January and February yet as I just don't have any 14ct Aida or 28ct evenweave to finish them with, so they are on the pile of to be finished till I do. As with the Ornaments of the month the patterns are free here on my blog with the links in the right-hand sidebar.

Other Friday Freebies

On the Friday's that are not being used for the Ornament of the Month and Fob a Month I also give freebies - but then not to any set theme, just whatever takes my fancy at the time. I don't always stitch them but these I did.
 Floral Hearts
 Beer Money Inc. coffee cup
Needle Keeper

Spring Magical Mystery SAL

As with the New Year I am hosting a high speed SAL over the Easter weekend - this time with 2 pre-stitch patterns so you hit the ground running when the patterns start arriving every 4 hours on Friday 30th March (if you are not ahead of me in a time zone that changes to the next day before I do)
This is where I am after the two pre-stitch patterns. If you want to join in the information is in the left-hand sidebar!

Viking Dragon

I announced Viking Dragon on this blog expecting to at least show him every Wednesday and well... I haven't made a WIP Wednesday post in ages so haven't shared progress here - I do however post daily pictures on my Instagram account - at least on days I've worked on him.
Last time I talked about Viking Dragon he looked like this!
I am currently working on the bottom section of him now and as I don't want to remove the hoop right now (loads of parked threads, would be a pain to do and get back) this is all you get to see unless you check out my Instagram (linked above these two photos). In view are DMC 300, 301 and Kreinik 021HL

 

 Other things I stitched

 Penguins - a Cross Stitch Crazy freebie
Santa - a CrossStitcher freebie (still not finished)

As you can see I've been a busy bee these past few months and there is no sign of things changing any time soon!

I'll be back Tuesday with the next part of the Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL!
