Another Totally Useless Post

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!

Next year I have 11 blocks (I've already stitched the first one) of Christmas at HRH & Chatelaine's 12 part Swan Lake.

Stop laughing.

It could happen. ;)

Just stick you arm in the stash and see what you pull out! That's how I do it.

Yep --- those pink threads are very cute in the froggie jar.

Ranae said...

Pretty threads! for a totally useless post, lol
Sorry! I am no help

Annette said...

All of these exchanges sound like fun, but I guess there is a lot tof work that goes into them...love your froggy jar!

Karen said...

Nice progress on your TUSAL. Oh goodness...you don't have any thing picked out to stitch? I am sure you will find something.

Cole said...

Oops! I keep forgetting about the TUSAL update!

Good luck figuring out your 2011 monthly stitch!

Lesleyanne said...

The hot pink does look great in the frog jar. No ideas for you I'm afraid.

I am exchange stitching as well - Don't worry about the jar - My cat keeps digging in mine - I gave up lol

Surely it's not to late to contemplate something Christmassy?? Something slightly larger than an ornament?
All my orts go into the one jar - I don't keep the froggy fibres separate. My family think I'm mad already!

Christine said...

Next time the frogs visit one of your designs just say "I meant it to look that way", who is going to know ;D

Oh no! Don't like frogging. Cute frog jar though.

Sun City Stitcher said...

Better late than never on the ort jar and I never thought of a separate frog jar - not sure I want the reminder!

Sorry, no ideas for a monthly project, but I bet something comes up.

Julie said...

The little frog jar is so sweet, maybe he was feeling a little hungry and needed to be fed :-)

Karan said...

Hope the froggie has now hopped off. Good Luck in deciding on the monthly stitch. :0)

I love your frog jar but wish he was just sitting there looking pretty and empty! Some frogs aren't too bad though - thankfully!
