I Didn't Mean to!!!

Really, I didn't.  It just sort of happened...

I mean, they're such pretty colours and I could hear them calling my name...

I just had to start the Lizzie Kate ABC's of Parenting!

This is my floss toss from a couple of weeks ago

. . . and this is my start from last night.

At work on Friday, I finally finished the last advent calendar piece - Happy Dance!!!  Now I can get started on the actual calendar.   (yeah, yeah, I know - the eyes aren't done yet.  Haven't decided whether to bead or french knot.  For the record, I hate FK's... )

And after several months of neglect, I put in some stitches on Mum's June sampler... it's not far off finished.  I should have done some more work on it instead of starting the Lizzie Kate but, well, you know, I didn't mean to start anything new...

  5. Wow, Kirstin, you've made some great progress. Everything is looking lovely. I love the colors in June Pearl, and the calendar is looking great too. I vote for beads!!! (I can't do a French Knot for anything, lol.)
