April Stitch From Stash, Pie and a Second TUSAL!

 Last day of the month and Time for Pie!


14 days on one project - Halloween at Hawk Run Hollow.  Here's where I started the month:


I finished Block 4:


And got this far on Block 1:

I will continue with this block in February and then start Block 1.  So far the number of days is:

Block 7 - 13 days
Block 6 - 16 days
Block 2 - 19 days
Block 3 - 20 days
Block 4 - 15 days
Block 1 - 2 days and counting


My WIPGO Board chose Little Snap Dragon by Kustom Krafts.  This is a design I loved from the first time I saw it in a magazine advert.  I was "this" close to finishing the dragon!  He isn't on my WIPGO Board again this year so I'm going to have to try squeeze some days in there.  There is still a lot of greenery to go around him.

I have decided to log my bath-time stitching this year.

You've seen both those projects in yesterday's Smalls post.


Stitch from Stash wasn't too bad.  I asked Kate from Sparklies to put the Cottage Garden Samplings Year in the Woods charts on auto-ship and the first two came through.  I also subscribed to the digital version of Just Cross Stitch again.  They currently refuse to ship to the UK so digital it is.  The grand total of £3 was for 3 Just Nan charts on eBay.  I actually have one of them already, but for that price, who is quibbling?









Finally, it's a Double New Moon this month, which means Double TUSAL posts.  Here is my TUSAL with Little Snapdragon:

    Great job on finishing block 4, Jo. That little skeleton in Block 1 is so cute :) Your dragon is growing nicely, too. Hope your May is off to a great start! ♥

    Wow, the bats look great with those white bones added to their wings! Was that in the chart or did you add them yourself? Love the snap dragon too, great progress.

    Wow, you got a lot done! Love the Halloween one and the dragon. Do you mean you actually stitch while in the bathtub?
