Mega Mini Month Madness - post 5 - the last one

Well it's time to say good-bye to MMMM but it's been good. I wish I had more time to stitch but hey ho.

For the final post I have a finish! Please excuse him, he hasn't been ironed yet :)

Well I've managed quite a bit of stitching and the end is in sight. The backstitching of the fur is a bit of a nightmare on Aida though.

Sadly I'm a post behind and delayed. I have done little stitching due to a lot of work at uni.

Even if I still have little time to stitch, I'd like to finish this little guy off before the end of October.

Sadly I don't have any finishes to show you this time but here's progress on fizzy moon stocking and a new start ;)

I've also added a bit more to the wedding sampler but that can wait for another post when MMMM is over. Lovely stitching everyone!

Mega Mini Month Madness - 1st post

For my first Mega Mini Month Madness (MMMM) stitching post, I have a finish! Please excuse the photo, he's still wet after his bath :)

This little guy was from a Hobbycraft kit. I'm looking forward to seeing how everyone else got on.

Uni classes start properly tomorrow so hopefully I can get some mini stitching done whilst adjusting to a busy time. 

I'm back!

Sorry, I haven't posted in a while. I've been on 2 trips (I didn't have much time to stitch on either of these), went to a wedding and then wrote my first essay for uni (induction week starts tomorrow). I've got to admit that although I'm a "mature" student, I am a bit nervous.

Sadly, I didn't get the sampler done in time for the wedding, I was having a hard time with the outer border so here's where it is at the moment:

It's the mountain of blue that gets me, it feels never ending...

I have signed up to Mega Mini Month Madness, the deadline for sign ups is tomorrow. Here are some mini WIPs that I'm aiming to get finished in October. I'll have to flick through my magazines to see what other minis I can do.

2nd Bag finished.

Well I've finished my sister's bag, I'm not entirely happy with the finish (just little things) but we were on a tight deadline and I was working overtime.

What I've learned between making this bag and my version, is that you save so much hassle if you quilt it properly...even if it's just simple lines. I'll certainly do that with the next two bags in the pipeline. They won't be started until I return from my holiday though.

Here's a photo of my recent addition to the stash...zipper wallets! They are only 55p each from Asda and I've found they are very handy as they are able to hold the charts and the fabric for a project. Thus making it easier to keep everything together.

I haven't added much to the wedding sampler but here's an update:
