But first, in case you do not know what I am talking about ...
Kitten Stitching and the Friday Frolics (or FF) is a SAL blog run by me to help us work our way through some of our WIPs and UFOs, each Friday.
Friday Night with Friends or (FNwF) is a monthly SAL, run by another wonderful SAL Mama, Cheryll, from Gone Stitchin' again to help us get some of our stitching goals accomplished.
If you would like to see everyone else's stitching for the various SALs, please click on the following links:

Friday Frolics
Firstly, I worked on finishing this sweet Spring Celebrations design by The Primitive Hare. It is a freebie which you can find here.
I found a scrap of overdyed fabbie and just managed to squeeze the design on it but I changed all of the colours to hopefully create a very sweet, very pastel, springlike feel.
Once I had finished this piece, I was too tired to go rootling around in my Girl's Nest for an old WIP, so I settled for a more recent one, one that I am finding very soothing to stitch.
Design: Do more of what makes you happy
Designer: Abbey Rose Designs
Fabric: 32ct Grey-spotted
Floss: Mixture of suggested and own choice over-dyed threads
These pics below show you where I got up to last time I posted about this piece in January - as you can see, I am close to finishing.
Anyway, enough "rabbiting" on from me for now - off to do some laundry and hopefully some sewing in my Girl's Nest.
hugs,
Kaye

Helping moving house is hard work. Lucky you could make an early start on your stitching. Lovely work.

I love both of them designs. The wonderful things about blogs is that you get to see so many lovely wins and inspiration from others, now I have 2 more designs to add to my 'must stitch one day list'. x
Great minds think alike! I am too currently working on this Abbie Rose design :)
Lovely work Kaye, they're both such lovely designs.
OH my, preparing a move can really be wearing one out. But great what you could stitch in spite of it. Very nice progress on Do More, and such a lovely spring piece finish. Good for you.
Spring Celebrations is adorable with those colors you chose! Love it!
How nice of your help with moving sew it great to see you got to sit, relax and stitch.. Both project look great.
Love your stitching , love the soft colours in the first one.
I have those Prim H freebies and intend to stitch them every year! I should definitely do more of what makes me happy - stitching and blogging!
Help the nurse while is in front of cross stitch!
You did well!

Loving your version of the Primitive Hare freebie, very pretty.
Wishing your sister lots of fun and happy times in her new home.
I think I would have collapsed rather than sewing - but your projects are so pretty.

Looks like you had a very busy Friday between helping with shifting and all that crosswork!
