I have had a busy stitching week too so far, I stitched this little keyring for an exchange on the SSS Group, it is stitched on 32c white Jobelan, 1over 1 in SSS Wildberry Cobler, it was tricky on the eyes but had to be a tiny design to fit in the keyring space. I have made a little headway on my L*K SAL and my Papillion GG SAL, but not as much as I thought I would have.
I backed it in some pretty blue rosebud material and used my new invisible thread to attach the cording, which was so much easier than glueing it, I end up making such a mess doing it this way.
I have made a start on the Jayne's Attic Monthly Challenge, it is a gorgeous design and I am using some gorgeous coloured thread, it is looking lovely, I have an idea of how I am going to finish it, I just hope I have the time.
Jeff and I are going away for Valentines to London to vist the Tutankhamen Exhibition at the O2 Bubble, it is the closest I will get to Egypt at the moment. I have been fascinated with Ancient Egypt since I was around 8 years old, I studied a 4 year Diploma in Egyptology, with the intention of finishing it to complete a degree, someday I will qualifiy!! We had booked a holiday to cruise down the Nile and do all the sights, but I fell pregnant so that never materialised...we hope to go for our honeymoon...whenever that will be..lol!!
Happy Stitching!!
Hugs

Great job on your stitching, they are wonderful. I really love the pillow.
I am so jealous of your trip to see the Tutankhamun Exhibit. I would love to see it. Even with it coming to Texas (US) it is still too far for me. :( Have a wonderful time.
Cute key ring & the cushion is very pretty, like how you've finished it.
Oh, I love anything to do with ancient Egypt - green with envy here! Would love to know what you think about the exhibition. Have fun. :0)
