Happy September to one and all....well after the terrible rain yesterday it is nice to see Mr Sunshine this morning, let's see how long he lasts, at least one thing it seems a bit fresher, the humidlty this past week or so has been killing me, it is bad enough when you are not pregnant, but heck when you are it is hell!!August was a funny old month, being signed off sick and getting used to being at home full-time, meeting a new man and his children and getting back into stitching. I hope to be able to settle down in September and once little man starts school (tomorrow) I should be able to get myself into some sort of a routine.
Well here are my August goals and how I got on with them...
1. Work on the Baby Sampler - small progress made.
2. Complete PAP part 2 - no progress made
3. Bookmark Exchange (Private Exchange) COMPLETED
4. Monthly Challenge (Stitch & Stash Forum) COMPLETED
5. Scissor Fob (Monthly Finishing Challenge) - I ran out of time
6. Halloween Ornie Exchange COMPLETED
7. Mythical Beastie Ornament Exchange COMPLETED
In addition to the above, I made the Flower Garden Biscornu for my Mum for her birthday, so I suppose this took the place of the 2 things I did not achieve.
Here are my Goals for September...
1. Work on the Baby Sampler
2. Complete PAP parts 2 & 3
3. Work on LK Double Flips
4. X-Stitch Monthly - Autumn/Halloween Exchange (design decided on)
5. Complete 2 Small Christmas Ornaments (at least)
6. Complete 2 Small Christmas Gifts (at least)
7. RR_Friends - Birdhouse SAL (design TBC)
8. Monthly Finishing Challenge - Floss Ring Tag (design TBC)
9. Stitch & Stash - Monthly Stitching Challenge (design TBC)
I hope I have not over challenged myself, I intend to start a rotation of my stitching, so that I work on my WIP's a little each week and not just the smalls.
I hope everyone else has a great September, a big thank you to everyone who stops by and reads my blog and a special thanks to those who take time to leave a comment, they are all much appreciated.
Hugs & Happy Stitching

Well done on achieving so many of your goals. I only managed one of mine.
