BFF SAL 22 - a short fill in

A query to my Internet provider turned into a mammoth call which halved our stitch time this week.  But I did enjoy filling in parts of the cow.

I have permission for off camera catchup time do we can start backstitch together next week.

A mini revival

Oh it's been SO long since I'd stitched outside of our joint sessions!  I feared lost Mojo!!

So here's a little mini stitch,  customised with our current car colour.

The kit was a gift from my BFF many years ago when our car was a different colour.

But it was great fun to complete in a day.

BFF SAL 22 - a mostly friendly cow

Haha I forgot about the invisible coo!!  He got feet, he got grass to sit on.. but then its like he was lost in the fog

So time to give him some friendly belly.

Even if it looks yellow instead of light brown. 

I'm enjoying this stitch so far, it reminds me of last years holidays in the beautiful Scottish Highlands, where we met the real thing.

BFF SAL 22 - recollection of my holidays

Oo this one is appealing to a nostalgic part of my brain as we met one of these up close on holiday.

It's another cover kit, but will keep you guessing a while yet. Can you see what it might be?

I had a teeny bit of unpick required at the end when I realised I started the left side 4 rows lower than needed.  And no workarounds for this one.

BFF SAL 21 - Celebration of Wreaths

Yippee,  finally back to the SAL. After an early start to do some catching up, I made an executive decision around backstitch as far as the background was concerned. 

And I'm very happy with the finish. 

Still needs stitching into the supplied Christmas ornament,  bit hey I've got a few months before next Christmas, right?

BFF RAL is taking over

Have had a rough time of cough/cold/general yuckiness lately,  so no catching up on SAL again this week.

Quite happy with how the purple flower went. Struggled a bit on the rest, to the point ofpulling something out, i think the pattern needs re-marking in places.

BFF RAL again

Honest, I'm really not putting the SAL off... just had another week beset by minor ailments which preclude stitches, and have scuppered almost every plan for this week.  I know I was feeling overwhelmed,  but this isn't how I'd have chosen to achieve downtime. 

So more progress on the bag instead.  Looks very odd where the hoop has been moved, but that will all be covered once i get done so I'm not going to stress about it.
