Christmas Rules SAL Block Six

Yay! I'm not a month behind now :o) I finally got Block Six finished last night -

Photobucket

Sorry I didn't take a picture of the whole project to date. I'm too lazy to have to go iron it ;o)

I'm hoping my stitching mojo is back because I still have July's block to do and the next thing I'll know, it will be August. Plus Nia has been chomping at the bit because we are going to do another SAL together. This time we'll be stitching Nora Corbett's Bluebell :o) I'm really looking forward to that. More beads I know but at least not as many as Sabrina. LOL!

I want to thank everyone for their kind words regarding our loss :o( I've been having a hard time of it and that's part of my withdrawal from Blogging. I have started to catch up on my Blog reading and responding to emails so hopefully this means I'm getting back on track!

Btw, I see that I now have over 300 Stalkers!!!! WOW! Me thinks I will be gathering some stuff together for a giveaway soon ;o)

Glad you seem to be feeling better about things. Looking forward to seeing some stitching goodness from you soon.

uhuuuu!!! one more done! ƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ*

With me, you're never behind, I will wait whenever you need :) Don't worry :)

I've been thinking about Bluebell... will it be too weird if I stitch everything and add the beads after?
Or would it be best if we both stitch the same way? hummm.. thoughts? :)

Happy friendship day!! :D
Hugs&Smiles, Nia

Great progress on Christmas Rules! Did you have any issues with your bullfrog? I just started mine and it seems too variegated to me. Yours doesn't seem so bad. Maybe I should just stitch with mine and see if I *really* don't like it! lol

Bluebell will be a fun project. I also want to start a Mira but I seem to have a brain block about it!

Hope you get to feeling better soon. Loss is a hard thing to bounce back from at times.

Glad to see you are feeling a little better. :)

Grats on having so many stalkers, er, followers! I'm one of them (lucky me)! Glad to hear that you're feeling better. Grief can do some horrible things. Can't wait to see your Bluebell (and Nia's, I follow her as well). Grats on getting all caught up!

Irene said...

I have faith that you will get Christmas Rules done and hanging this year. Hope you feel better.

Marjorie said...

Glad to see you back! Awfully sorry about the pup...

Deborah said...

Glad that you are getting the stitching mojo back.

That's great! I have been eyeing that pattern for a few months now - I really just need to get off my cartouche and buy it; she's so pretty.

Very cute block! Except now I have that song stuck in my head..."Oh, you better not pout, I'm tellin' you why..."

Congratulations on 300 Stalkers!

It's looking great. Congrats in finishing another line. :)

Karen said...

Kudos on another finish. Can't wait to see your new project.

Shelley said...

Ohh very cute! This series is on my wish list (along with way too many others lol). Glad to hear you're getting back on track after losing Duncan. Its a hard slog losing a pet. Looking forward to more progress shots on this one :)

Lesleyanne said...

Sorry to hear of your loss. LOVE your finished block. Look forward to seeing your bluebell stitching along with Nia.

Very nice block, Cathey! Glad to see you back :)

I really love this project. It seems my SAL with my friend will be a Stitch ALone as she can't find time though...
300 stalkers on your blog is very much deserved, Cathey. ;) And I'm not even counted as one as I haven't subscribed. Lol! Imagine what the real figures must be! 301 at least!!!
HUgs.

Cute block!

Angela said...

Looks great! I couldn't decide if I wanted to start Halloween Rules or Christmas Rules first....Halloween Rules has won though!

Carol said...

It takes a while to bounce back after a loss like you had, Cathey--glad to see you're back to stitching again :)

Julie said...

Super block!
