September Pie ....

Here is my stitching/crafting pie for September.....

Okay, what is a Stitching Pie, I hear you ask?

Well, I am "stealing" yet another great idea from my dear Stitchy and Bloggy friend, Jo, from Serendipitous Stitching. Each month she includes a pie graph of which projects she has been stitching on - showing how much time, proportionally, has been spent on each one in that month.

I really like this idea, so I am copying it, thank you Jo, I hope that you don't mind, so here we go for September 2018 .....


(Note:I think it has been nearly two years since I last gave you a slice of stitching pie - my apologies)

Here is my September 2018 Pie...


... and here is the breakdown of minutes over the month for each September project:



Altogether I stitched for 10.3% of the month.  This down a bit from October two years ago (when I last recorded my stitching time) when it was 12% but then, when you consider that I am ten times busier now then I was back then (I was actually not working at all this time two years ago and now I am working two days a week plus all of the house stuff!), I think it is pretty good.

Of course, I had better show you all of the pretties that I have been stitching on this past month - most of which you will have seen in earlier posts but not Peas and Qs recently, so I will start with that project.

This is the very pretty Peas and Qs by The Cricket Collection....




Sorry, the fabric is not ombre but the first pic I took was very washed out - see below.

Then, of course, there is my Happy Dance - Silent Night by CCN.





... and Winter in the Village by Stoney Creek.



... and my Antique Roses Sampler by DMC, which as featured a few times on recent posts.




My red bird hearts .....



... and lastly, Christmas Goose by Stacy Nash (if you think this looks familiar, I did stitch this about five years ago - check it out here - but I love the pattern so much that I am stitching it again as I think that I gave the first one away).

Okay, that is all from me for now.  Have a good day, everyone,

Smalls SAL_September Update

Hey, here I am after several months, finally posting a Smalls SAL post!
My last Smalls post was at the beginning of May for my March and April Smalls. 
 

The Smalls SAL is hosted by the wonderful Heather from Stitching Lotus.

However, not a lot of Smalls to show you - just these sweet red bird hearts, which will make lovely Christmas ornies.



That's all for me for today, 

hugs,
