A Late October TUSAL

I was so excited about the season 3 premier of The Walking Dead that I forgot it was the New Moon and time to show off my scanty ORT jar!


I stitched on the back patio for several hours on Sunday afternoon. Started a new project! This is Small Token by Blackbird designs. I'm not worried about the lack of stitching mojo since I know my being busy with other things, other interests is the cause. When life settles down I will stitch more.

TUSALers leaving a comment on this post receive an extra entry in the giveaway. It's getting close to the end of the year. I can't wait to start the giveaway! Those of you who'd like to continue in 2013 ~ say so! If there is enough interest I will post a TUSAL sign up closer to the end of the year.

Thank you for visiting my blog today!

    Life will settle down eventually! In the mean time, you are having fun so it's not all bad.

    Here's my TUSAL post for this month.

    I'd be interested in playing along next year if others are too.

    I think that I am signed up for this year's TUSAL - anyway I have posted every month. You can see my latest TUSAL post at http://kittenstitching.blogspot.com.au/2012/10/day-6-of-11-days-of-kaisievics-birthday.html - where you can also enter my Birthday giveaway, if you like.

    .. and, of course, I will sign up for next year's TUSAL

    Wasn't the new episode of TWD good? If a bit gory? It was good to see that they had moved them on by a few months and you could see how they had hardened and changed. It is sensational TV.

    hugs, Kaye

    The Small Token by Blackbird design in the photo sure looks pretty it reminds me of mittens, snowflakes and warm sweaters.
    I would love to take part in a 2013 TUSAL in the mean time...

    You can find my TUSAL here.

    How lucky are you to be able to sit out on the patio and stitch in the sunshine. We,re getting well into Autumn now and have had some frosty mornings already, so most of my stitching is being done inside in the warm with a good light.
    Happy Stitching!

    Nope, Jo...you are wrong! You DO qualify for the draw. The ONLY things one must do to qualify is be on the TUSAL guest list. One does get more chances by posting photos and more chances by commenting on my update posts but every person on the guest list has their name in the hat!

    I am gutted even though i have been missing from the great ol land of internet, i am still collecting my orts, lovely vase i had, too, until my mum came up decided to clean the hose while i was in bed ill ( it was already clean, cheeky) and threw them OUT !!!!! so i am a bit miffed as she thought it was rubbish and i couldn't be bothered to clean them up, i suppose it is my fault as i keep the ort on show in my room as i love the colours in when its filling up, so my rot jar is looking very sorry for itself!
