Okay, on to business! Like always, most of my projects fit the discription (some of the supplies were gifted to me, or the finished project is intended to be a gift) - even my current main project, Dark Force, since I won the pattern in a stitching contest, and I was told that would count as well. So let's start with my progress here, I finished another column, of course, and even a bit of overlap to the next one - and, exciting exciting, that shiny thing in the lower right is the first bit of Vader's helmet!
Then I started and finished two gifts for my grandma this month; to lovely little guinea pig kits by RTO: Smart Gosh and Rodent Bonn.
I also started the Things Unseen Mystery Sampler by Lizzie*Kate - the whole kit was a christmas gift from my boyfriend, and I'm totally in love with it. I'll try to only stitch small patches though, so it will last a while longer. AND I started the next page of Bothy Thread's Cut Thru' Cottage, which is supposed to be a house warming gift for Felix' sister and her boyfriend when it's done.
I also did some knitting on BSJ, which is also going to be a gift, and it's technically finished I'm just too lazy to finish-finish it, but I hope to have a finished picture by the weekend.
So that's it for stitching news, and everything else will have to wait for a later point, I'm still not feeling really well again and trying not to be away from the couch for too long in the evenings...or maybe I'm just lazy ;) Anyway, catch you later!

What a lot of gorgeous gifting! I love Dark Force. How exciting to see Vader appearing! Your guinea pigs are super cute and your boyfriend is definitely a keeper if he buys you stash!
Wonderful projects Leonore. Hope your feeling better soon.

You have been busy! Lovely stitching.
Thank you! He is a keeper, even without the stash buying part, and he's starting to learn how easy it can be to make me happy by just buying me stitchy stuff ^_^
Thank you :) I'm already much better again, give me a few more days and I'll be good as new :D
Thank you :)
I really like the LIzzie Kate pattern, it looks like fun to stitch!
Thanks for taking part in GG this month. I really love the blues in Dark Force and the guineas are so cute. My son has a cuddly guinea pig toy which I have to kiss good night to!
Given how busy you've been, I'm amazed at how much you have done, it's all so pretty.
Great stitching progress happening!
Hugs xx
It is, especially with all the wonderfull floss!
Guinea pigs are awesome! Strangle enough, those are the only decent cross stitch patterns I found of them...
Thank you! I think I'm getting better at time management too :)
