New minies and more fun

I have managed to finish two more mini freebies recently and last weekend we visited the zoo again. It seams that my daughter associates the zoo with her dad coming to visit. I don't mind because we have a great old time every time. This time we even managed to catch some of the shows, like the seal feeding when the animals do all kinds of tricks for the fish and everyone's amusement, including their own.

Later that day my mom called me in panic because she heard on the radio that a six years old girl was attacked and severely bitten by a seal during the presentation. I googled the news. It was a boy, 11 years old and in Australia, but the rest of the news was true. He is okay now. I only shared this little incident to let you all know what my mother's general state of mind is. This "if something awful happens, it probably happened to my kids" attitude is what I had to deal with on a daily basis for the past 30+ years and I don't think she will change soon.

But never mind that, enjoy my stitching and my girl pretending to be a funny little squirrel.

Stitchy update

Do you remember this adorable Somebunny To Love kit I bought last year (with two others)? I finally decided to take the plunge and despite my ongoing long term projects, start a new piece, one that I really love and enjoy, and that is gonna give me quick results to boost my self-esteem. I spent about a month on it, and the progress is not bad considering I still have some LnL and Dimensions WIPs that I have also been working on. Do you know what's funny? I never realised this kit had some variegated floss in it until I got to the flowers! Well, better late then never, right?

I also have some minor Keresztszemes Magazin finishes, and I am working on the next ones already. I must say, I hated the palm tree. It is full of fractional stitches, which are okay on linen but not on aida. The outcome is rather pretty though.
