I'm back! ...Again!

My triumphant return didn't go quite as I had hoped it would, so I'm taking another run at it! I hadn't been to my LNS in over two months, so I went on Saturday in hopes it would help re-start my stitching mo (as in, motivation). I'm ready to move on to a little Christmas stitching. I didn't buy much, but I did get the sweet new design from Little House Needleworks. 

Also picked up some threads for my Christmas ornament. Pretty colors.

I missed this for Halloween, but they had some very cool wooden needle minders left. 

And here's a little sneak peek of the Advent Animal I'm almost finished with. They normally take me 2-3 days, just working a few hours at a time in the evenings. This is the September animal. That gives you an idea of how little I've been stitching. I haven't even started October yet, and November is due out tomorrow. sigh

Finally, here she is. It's been too long since we've had a Tiger Lily beauty shot. She's still beautiful. Still stealing my seat. Still supervising the stitching, when any gets done.

I am determined, determined, to finish that pig today and get a start on #9. 

Determined.
