More acronyms for you: TUSAL and IHSW updates...

For the first time  I signed up for the IHSW (International Hermit & Stitch Weekend).  Thanks to the wonderful Joyse at Random Ramblings for hosting! I had fun knowing that I was stitching with fellow bloggers.
What did my needles achieve over the weekend?

More stitching on the MB English garden sampler....this scene seems to be taking forever though! I also worked on my HAED ("Love") so I'll take a photo of that for my next post.


A simple flower from the devine cross stitch book called Sweet Treats.  I will make this into a cute lolly bag...

I finished appliqueing a block for my  Lynette Anderson's quilt...now to backstitch it.


Last but not least is my TUSAL Totally Useless Stitch-A-long jar hosted by the lovely It's Daffycat.

Hi Jan, I haven't forgotten about our MB SAL but I have to finish a couple of exchange pieces first.

Great progress.

Hugs, kaye xoxox
