June Turtle Trot

Today is Turtle Trot day!



Well this was me this month... I did not get any stitching in on my WIPs since the last Turtle Trot. I felt like I just buried my head in the sand and worked on other things instead of what I planned on but I have had some crazy days so I guess I just did not feel like stitching on them; but there is always next month!

Thanks for checking out my
and I hope some of the pictures look
different by the next check in!

April Turtle Trot

Today is the 10th and that means it is Turtle Trot day!
My turtle this month is one that my grandson fell in love with when we went to reptile fest a few years ago.  He has since gotten his own turtle; Leonardo named after the blue Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

I worked on two WIPs since the last
Turtle Trot check in

The first is Easter Eggs
This one had been in the WIP pile since
July 2012

The next one I worked on is
Dinosaurs
It is my "MAIN" piece
and it is now back in my
rotation every other week!

I also had a new start
The Wizard of Oz 
This is how much I completed last week.

Thanks for checking out my
Turtle Trot
and I hope some of the pictures look
different by the next check in!

**Recently I have noticed I am having a blogger problem! I am not getting notifications on all comments made to my blog and don't see them until I go to post something. I "normally" answer ALL COMMENTS with at least a thank you so if I have not emailed you; please do not take it personally. Even after I go and approve the comment I still am not getting notifications.  Who knows why - hopefully it will fix itself soon. Thanks for your patience and understanding.  I do appreciate all comments made here!

February Turtle Trot

Today is the day for the Turtle Trot report!

I worked on quite a few things since the last check in.  I finished the penguin and cupcake on Smoosh aka Twirl and I need to chart out the words I want on the piece. I also had four new starts since the last check in AND I finished three of those (yay) and am trying to finish off the fourth one this week. Then I can FINALLY get back to Dinosaurs!

This was Smoosh at the last check in

and here he is now

January Turtle Trot

I have never participated in the Turtle Trot before but decided that I needed some encouragement to get my UFOs and WIPs finished and this seemed like a great opportunity to accomplish that goal!

So I have gathered up some of my UFOs (UnFinished Objects) and WIPs (Works In Progress) which I would like to finish up or at least get some stitching done on this year and joined in!

My Turtle Trot pieces are listed on this page.  When I finish one thing I MIGHT look around in all my stash to see if I have another to take it's place or I will just add in any new starts I HAVE to do!

Thanks for checking out my
and I hope the pictures look
different at the next check in!
