Christmas in September??

Here's two recent Christmasy finishes:



Jolly Old Elf by Just Nan, stitched on Cobblestone linen



Peace, a freebie by 4 My Boys, my choice for the recent freebie SAL on the Needle and Thread board, stitched on a piece of 32 count Kiwi Illusions.

Last night I made a start on September's Ornament choice, Christmas Kitty Moon by Stitchy Kitty.

I didn't set any goals for August but here's a recap of my progress:

In a few hours time my friend Wendy is picking me up and we're off to Paraparaumu to meet up with some other stitching friends. Its about a 3 hour drive away and we're planning to stop for lunch in Palmerston North to meet my aunt. Glenn is also going away this weekend, to Auckland for a few days to watch the NZ All Blacks rugby team play Australia. So folks, enjoy your weekend, and take care! Will be back soon!
