TUSAL time

I thought I'd share a quick pic of my bead TUSAL pot this month before I emptied it into the big one.


This time I've added orts from Caleb's Birth Sampler, Halloween Flip It's, Winter Wonderland, Namaste, 4 Seasons Sampler, Runekeeper and all those ones from the bead pot.

Winter Wonderland progress

It's getting there :) fingers crossed I'll be finished next wednesday


I looked in the viv earlier and saw Peewee fast asleep and it made me smile, both of them often sleep on the top or down the side of the house.  He woke up when I spoke to him and told  him was silly :)

Another one bites the dust

AKA I finished the Birth Sampler which makes 6 PHD's that I started the year with finished :)

I had to use the flash for the overall pic so it looks a little washed out.


I think these guys are so cute and the pics have the added bonus of showing the colours so much better



The important bit

Progress & a finish

My progress on the birth sampler from the weekend.  I only have the info panel to do now so fingers crossed I get that done this weekend and I can cross another PHD of the list


I actually finished this panel weeks ago but for some reason never posted it so here it is now.
Before anyone asks it's Knowledge written in Japanese and it's from an old issue of Jill Oxton but which one escapes me right now.
