I knew it was the New Moon on Saturday. I had planned for it all week. Then, when the time came...I was so excited to share my free pattern with you my TU SAL plans flew right out the window. Yup, I forgot! Sheesh!
Not a whole lot of threads in the old ORT jar for this month, but acceptable. I'm sharing my frog jar as well as one of the little critters showed up when I was working on my design. It really sucks having to frog when you are stitching something you designed, isn't that crazy? However, it wasn't too bad, and the hot pink threads are pretty in the frog jar!
I would share stitching with you but I'm working on an exchange ~ so nothing ~ I got nothing. Plans ARE made for finishing my exchange project by the weekend, then starting my November block of Snapper Year. I still need to kit it up. (UGH!) Kitting up these blocks takes a bit of work each month since the suggested threads don't match the model photos...maybe I've been dawdling at doing that!
Some of you are curious as to what next year's monthly stitch is going to be. I'm clueless. Nothing has jumped out at me yet. Any ideas?
Thank you for visiting my blog today!
xox
Next year I have 11 blocks (I've already stitched the first one) of Christmas at HRH & Chatelaine's 12 part Swan Lake.
ReplyDeleteStop laughing.
It could happen. ;)
Just stick you arm in the stash and see what you pull out! That's how I do it.
ReplyDeleteYep --- those pink threads are very cute in the froggie jar.
Pretty threads! for a totally useless post, lol
ReplyDeleteSorry! I am no help
A lot of pink, tobad you had to frog so much!!
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you design something for next year for evrey month by your self???
All of these exchanges sound like fun, but I guess there is a lot tof work that goes into them...love your froggy jar!
ReplyDeleteNice progress on your TUSAL. Oh goodness...you don't have any thing picked out to stitch? I am sure you will find something.
ReplyDeleteOops! I keep forgetting about the TUSAL update!
ReplyDeleteGood luck figuring out your 2011 monthly stitch!
The hot pink does look great in the frog jar. No ideas for you I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteI am exchange stitching as well - Don't worry about the jar - My cat keeps digging in mine - I gave up lol
ReplyDeleteSurely it's not to late to contemplate something Christmassy?? Something slightly larger than an ornament?
ReplyDeleteAll my orts go into the one jar - I don't keep the froggy fibres separate. My family think I'm mad already!
Next time the frogs visit one of your designs just say "I meant it to look that way", who is going to know ;D
ReplyDeleteKeep your usless post coming, we all love to read them,
ReplyDeleteMarlene xxxx
Oh no! Don't like frogging. Cute frog jar though.
ReplyDeleteBetter late than never on the ort jar and I never thought of a separate frog jar - not sure I want the reminder!
ReplyDeleteSorry, no ideas for a monthly project, but I bet something comes up.
The little frog jar is so sweet, maybe he was feeling a little hungry and needed to be fed :-)
ReplyDeleteHope the froggie has now hopped off. Good Luck in deciding on the monthly stitch. :0)
ReplyDeleteI love your frog jar but wish he was just sitting there looking pretty and empty! Some frogs aren't too bad though - thankfully!
