A Great Start

Time flies, it is already February 2012. I had a great start this year. I won two New Year's Giveaways.

Julie had a giveaway to celebrate the New Year. I am so lucky to be the winner. She sent me a box of goodies! Look at the pin pillow, I just love the color.


Here are the goodies that she sent to me. The chocolate did not last long, ha, ha!


A closer look at the LK's kit!


Cindy also had a giveaway to celebrate her birthday and the new year. I was very excited to be the winner again. Here are the gifts she sent to me.



Thank you so much, Julie and Cindy, for the wonderful gifts! I can't wait to start the LK's kit and the SB's fob.


My plan to stitch an ornament a month went very well. I had finished the stitching for January and February. As usual, the finishing is delayed, lol!

I join Becky's BAP Challenge and choose to stitch LK's 6 Fat Men. The snowmen are so adorable! Many stitchers had completed these designs and they are so gorgeous. I want to finish this one fast, hopefully not too much distractions along the way!

Mamen is hosting another HAL. Here is a picture of the project, a Memo Holder. This project involves some cartonnage which Mamen will provide tutorial at the end of the stitching. Mamen stitches beautifully, please visit her blog to see her gorgeous works.


Here is my Part one!

Surprise! I had some finishings to show, two scissors fobs and a pincushion. I stitched these SB's freebies last year. The designs are so adorable. I will be looking for more SB's designs to stitch.



Valentine is round the corner, Happy Valentine to all my visitors!

Happy Stitching until the next update!
