Another fat man bites the dust! This time it's Let It Snow , which I finished last night, and this one seemed to stitch up so fast! I'm really looking forward to starting the last one next Tuesday and I'd love to have this finished before I go in for my surgery early May. I think I can do it :)

Started 6th March 2012
Finished 27th March 2012
Not much else to show as I'm working on a little RAK but I do have some progress on HAED Guardian. Not much as I can stitch all evening on a HAED and not see much for it!
Monday as always was SB SAL night with dear Barb and dear Colleen. I do hope Colleen is OK. I frogged the green that I wasn't keen on and restitched it with a lighter one which I think looks much better. I finished the grass and planted the flowers and gave the shepherdess a crook:)
Yesterday I received a lovely surprise from my dear friend Michelle. She had been to the stitching show at the NEC and she very kindly sent me this.
As some of you know Blackbird Designs is one of my favourite designers so this is just perfect for me. Thank you so much Michelle for thinking of me {{{hugs}}}
Tonight Mouse is joining me for my new start Little House Needleworks Summer Splendor. Mouse started hers as one of her crazy pieces back in January but hasn't done any on it since so I'm very happy that she is joining me in stitching it.
We have two new family members at the moment. No photos as yet as I haven't taken any but both Jess and Abi decided after much heartache to get another hamster each. Abi has taken a long time to decide but after Jess came home with one ( her Dad took her to look on the way home from uni last Friday) she decided she'd like to go look on Sunday and the first one she saw she fell in love with. They were both quite tame as they are used to being handled and they are both so sweet! I'm hoping having them around will help me ( pet therapy!).
Well I'd better end this here as tea is almost ready and the girls are hungry.
Until next time.
With much love.

Your Fat Snowman project is working up nicely, good luck in finishing it before your surgery.

Hope the new hamsters settle well.
Happy stitching.

Your stitching is lovely Sally well done.
Hope the hamsters settle in - loooking forward to seeing pictures of them. Glad you liked your little gift x
Sally, your needles are smokin' on the snowmen. They look wonderful.
SB is gorgeous and I can't wait to see your progress on Summer Splendor. :)
Cute snowman piece. But I disagree I don't want it to snow. Winter had it's chance to come, it didn't so it missed it's chance this year. Your WIP is nice too.
YOUR SNOWMAN SURE IS A CUTIE!
LOVELY STITCHING,TOO!
I love your Snowman - really must get mine started soon. Lovely progress on your Guardian and Monday night SAL. Congrats on the new family members and your great gift from Michelle.
Great stitching as always! Hope the hamsters settle in and everyone is happy!
Loving the snowmen and the SB piece.super gift from Michelle.
Hope the new guys are settling in.
All of your projects are looking great! You sure are being productive!
Great stitching Sally! Congrats on finishing another snowman! And Guardian is looking better than ever!
LOL at "Another fat man bites the dust" I totally heard that sung in Freddy Mercury's voice!
The SB is looking great too
No matter how many times I see them, I still fall in love with 6 Fat Man each time I saw them. All the best to finishing it before your surgery. Look forward to seeing your new hamsters.
Hugs,
Veronica.
All three of your WIPS are looking lovely Sally.

Cute little fat man !!
Great stitching - I love Let is Snow :) and your HAED
Great fat man, congrats. The SB project made real progress too. Enjoy the new pets CJ in Ok ;-)
Your stitching looks great. The HAED are crazily huge, I admire you for doing one. No wonder progress looks slow, there is just so much stitching on them. Enjoy your new pets.
Congratulations on finishing the fifth fat man, Sally--he is very cute. I have no doubt you'll have all six done in no time :)
So glad the girls gave the hamsters a new loving home--looking forward to seeing some photos of them very soon!
Congrats on finishing off another adorable snowman!
I love watching your progress on your HAED
Great finish and WIPs Sally,a beautiful gift from Michelle, I was lucky too and received a goody from her. I would love to stitch a SAL with you later in the year :0) x
FABULOUS as always dear Sally :) So much to drool over :)
Grats on your Fat Man finish, Sally. It looks so cute! Can't wait to see the last one done, and I"m sure you'll have it finished in no time. Good job on your SALs too. I love stitching something with friends.
