For my Mum, I made this Coconut Chiffon Cake:
I have been doing lots of stitching, too, although I have been so busy that I have barely had time to get onto my laptop let alone do much blogging! (Often, when I am so busy I choose stitching time over blogging time - there is only so much a girl can do!)
Cut Through Castle Update #1 (SAL with Linda and Debbie and lots of others)
Not much progress, so far I know. |
I am stitching it on this beautiful blueish/purple 32 ct fabric from Quilt Kitty. |
April's Halloween Ornament SAL:
May's Halloween Ornament SAL progress:
Update: I have been asked what the variegated thread is on the moon. Now, the moon is meant to be all yellow but I thought that it would look pretty speccy with something about different, so I am using WDW's Fiesta - what do you all think?
Thread Pickerz Silkz Heart SAL - Heartz 1 and 2:
Santa's 12 Days of Christmas SAL: (with Linda and Debbie)
.... and here is my TUSAL update - train ORTs on the left and home ORTs on the right:
Well, that is all for me for now - look out for my upcoming posts: A review of Yiota's cross stitch kits and another book review plus maybe a few more things as the week's progress.

Happy Mothers Day dear friend!
Such a yummy looking cake, Kaye!! I am the only one in my family who eats coconut so I'm afraid I never get to enjoy anything like that...
Happy Mother's Day to you!
Oh your cake looks delicious - love coconut.
Lots of lovely stitching too - you have been very productive.
What a gorgeous cake! And all your stitching progress looks fantastic too - I particularly love the Silkz Heart, the colors are incredible!
What a lucky Mum to have such a beautiful cake to mark the day!!!
Wow you've been working of all kinds of great projects!!! I've been choosing stitching over blogging myself lately too.
yummyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy cake..
happy mothers day to you too dear..
sweet stitching progress x
The cake looks so luscious! Nice start on your castle! I can't wait to see the dragon's eyeballs soon! I added the pic to the SAL page. http://debbiescrossstitch.blogspot.com/p/bothy-threads-cut-thru-sal.html
Great progress on Santa's 12 Days and the May Halloween ornament looks great! What kind of orange variegated floss is that? The hearts looks really pretty, too.
Happy Mother's Day! You've got all sorts of good stitching going on!
Busy woman! The cake looks yummy and beautiful stitching as always:)
Great update Kaye. You have been busy. Yummy looking cake. My husband would love that. Santa 3 looks great. You've almost caught up to us. We are still on day 4. Pretty floss for the hearts and your ornaments are really pretty.
Yippee!!! A picture of the Castle. Great start. I just want to stitch all of them now. lol Will add it to the SAL page on my blog.

Oh my gosh!! That cake looks yuummmmyyyyyy!!! Cute stitches too!
Ohhh, what a delicious cakes this must be. Or maybe I should say was, lol. It's quite obvious why it was eaten up so fast.
Many gorgeous WIPs, one for each mood a stitcher can be in. Enjoy them all.
Oh my that cake looks so yummy! You are an awesome baker!
The moon is beautiful with the Fiesta WDW's thread. So clever to use a variegated instead of just plain yellow. I love it!
Love all your stitching...I am looking forward to watching your progress.
Blessings always
I love coconut cake!
