More Giveaways and Stitching but no pics

To start things off today.....Would you like to join the TUSAL for 2012?  Visit Daffycat's blog to read about it and join if you wish.  I have decided to join.  Hopefully it will keep me stitching alot next year.  Here is the URL...  http://itsdaffycat.blogspot.com/2011/11/totally-useless-stitch-long.html

Here is giveaway but you only have until Wednesday to sign up.  So get there now.  http://wagapapacreations.blogspot.com/2011/11/1st-blogaversary-giveaway-sorteo-1er.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+WagapapaCreations+%28Wagapapa+Creations%29

Another giveaway to check out is   http://44mamawsfinishedcrossstitchitems.blogspot.com/2011/11/my-christmas-giveaway.html

And the last giveaway is Kate's at  http://theflyingneedle.blogspot.com/2011/11/giveaway.html

I have been stitching but I don't have any pictures yet.  I have still been working on ornaments.  I have 3 with the stitching finished but I haven't had the chance to finish them into ornaments yet.  I need to do that soon as one has to travel a distance for an exchange.  And I am going to be very busy for the next 13 days so hopefully I can get them done this week.  

I am not doing any of the Crazy Challenges or the WIPocalypse but I have been trying to decide what projects I want to do 2012.  I have Frederick the Literate to finish.  Jasper by Cross My Heart is started but not much progress on it as I stopped it to work on the Dragon that I finally finished earlier this year.  I am going to restart Mystic Stitch's Baby Ghosts.  And I have Ink Circles "Namaste" ordered at my LNS.  This one represents the 7 Chakras of body.  And it is one of 2 charts that I have found that has anything even remotely to Massage Therapy in cross stitch.  The second chart is also of the chakras.  I have also decided that I need to do one Christmas ornament a month.  But other then that, I haven't really decided what to do when or whatever.  

So, until I can post again, I hope all of you have Happy Stitching and may the frogs visit a pond no where near you.

It didn't get done. But there are some giveaways

I was going to show you a finish today.  But unfortunately, the finish didn't get finished.  I have a bit of back stitching to do on an ornament.  It is almost finished and probably would have been finished but Lil Bit wanted to play for awhile this afternoon before I had to leave for an appointment.

But I came across some giveaways today while I was reading blogs.  Go check them out.

Good Luck and hopefully I will be able to show you a finish soon.

A Lil Bit of a Start

I made a promise to myself.  I promised that if I were to win a giveaway from a blog without having a blog of my own, I would start a blog.  Well I won a giveaway.  I will tell you more about it with pictures when I receive it.  So, I am slowly getting started here.  This blog will be about my cross stitching and of course kitty antics.  For those of you that don't know me.  My honey and I have 2 kitties.  Tony is 8 years old and we believe that he is part Egyptian Mau.  At least he fits most of the characteristics of one listed by a show on Animal Planet.  And then there is Lil Bit.  She is our 14 month old Maine Coon kitty.  She is adorable and Mama's helper.  She is always trying to help me out when I am stitching.  Whether it be investigating my work when Cross Stitching or helping me with the materials if I am going to use the sewing machine.  So, I have the first posting started.  Now I need to see to the rest of the things that need to be done with it.  So, until I post again.....Have a great week!!
