Well I am cleaned out! and TUSAL

not really unfortunately. Most of the Phill's place is clean. I can see corners I haven't seen for ages. Mum and Dad come over yesterday and leant a wonderful helping hand. They were life savers yesterday!

But through all this cleaning I have been stitching. Not much on Afternoon Tea. Actually not at all of afternoon tea because I haven't been set up to stitch on it with the cleaning.

 One of the blogs I follow the lovely Beverly at Wee Stitchy has just opened an Etsy shop with cross stitch designs called Love Thy Thread such lovely designs. She asked for guinea pigs to try out her patterns so I offered my services.
I haven't quite finished yet the hair is taking ages! Lots of black but I love stitching this!

I am being slightly crazy though I'm stitching this on 25ct 2x1 I was curious how it would turn out. I am making my life more difficult!

Remember the designs for the baby cube? I bought a magazine called 365 Cross Stitch Designs and the same designer had more stuff in there. Along the same lines as the cube stuff. I had to stitch this little octopus! Isn't he cute?

and I have been stitching on Jardin Prive I have got to the top right corner now :D

Step by step it's getting closer!

I love working with this much purple :D so bright and colourful :D and PURPLE!

Oh and last but not least I haven't forgotten my TUSAL though I almost did!

Have fun :D
I have to do some more cleaning!
