Bothy Threads cut-thru SAL Update 7

Hi Blogger Friends.  I'm still having fun.  I think maybe its because it has alot of big areas of stitching.  My Sunday Mother's Day present was to stitch on it and also on Monday.

Linda's Turtle Trot SAL May Update

Hi Blogger Friends.  Its Turtle Trot update time again.  You can read all about it HERE.  Well, I managed to work on all 13 again this month and sorta kept up with my SAL's. Last Thursday was my DH birthday.  I got up to an infection in my arm again.  Although, it is the first one in about 8 months.  So needless to say, I spent all day Thursday in bed and that threw my stitching schedule off.  I still had 5 to work on and I managed to work a little on all of them on Friday.  But, that messed up my SAL's.  I have worked on the Thursday one but missed Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  Boo-hoo

1.  Cat Lessons - Lizzie Kate - added a word and a ball of yarn


2.  The Old West - Little House Needleworks - stitched on the Alamo


3.  Autumn Alphabet - Lizzie Kate - added B, K and R


4.  Blue Bird Floral - Diane Arthurs - finished the blue box


5.  6 Fat Men - Lizzie Kate - finished his coat and did his mittens


6.  Fredericka - Carriage House Samplings - added the wheat?


7.  Happy Camper - Diane Arthurs - stitched Happy


8.  Summer Season - Sandra Cozzolino - stitched on the word summer


9.  Mermaid Myrna - Diane Arthurs - added a fish


10.  Crabby All Year - Raise the Roof - added the lines in the glass

11.  Christmas Village - Prairie Schooler - stitched on the house


12.  January Sampler - Waxing Moon - stitched on the banner at top

Bothy Threads cut-thru SAL Update 6

Hi Blogger Friends.  Thank you for voting on my next YOTA piece on my last post.  If you haven't voted yet, there is still plenty of time.  Just go to my last post and leave a comment.  I appreciate your help cause I'm to old to make decisions on mine own.

I'm still loving working on the Stable.  Seems like everyone else is too.  We have a couple new stitchers and you can see their starts on the SAL page at the top of my blog.  Debbie and I are hosting this and both keeping SAL pages current.

May YOTA SAL Update

Hi Blogger Friends.  I spent a couple evenings working on The Library by Little House Needleworks.  You can see whose doing this SAL HERE.  I WILL finish it this month.  You all know how obsessed I am with the Bothy Threads cut-thru Stable.  My next YOTA project is going to be either the cut-thru North Pole House or Pirate Ship.  I started both of them last year.

 

It's kinda hard to tell what I did.   I stitched all the lines in the book ends and 2 strands of brown in the first one.  Also finished the lines between the bricks on the left.

North Pole House - started 2-4-12


 Cut Thru' North Pole House

Pirate Ship - started 1-21-12
 


 Cut Thru' Pirate Ship


 I would love your votes.  Please leave me a comment telling me much one I should work on.  Of course, I will work on the one with the most votes.

Thanks for looking.    Linda
