Hermitting Hedgehogs :)

HI every one :) 
well the sun is out and it is such a glorious sunny spring morning at the mouse house .....the washing is blowing on the line :) the kettle is on and just about to boil for your drinks sooo what do you want today ??? as not sure if this will be your first drink of the day or the last ..lol ...
This weekend was the ISHW  (the international stitch and hermit weekend) usually the 3rd weekend of each month hosted by Joyce and although I didn't get to stitch as much as normal with normal life getting in the way shheesh ..lol I have done a wee bit over the week too on the hedgehogs  and can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel YIPPPEEEE .... I will be so glad to get this one done and move onto something a wee bit smaller for a few days ..lol 
I had to stitch on something different for a few hours and did a little bit more on the Feb cottage SAL  and the Needle and thread by LHN  so I shall show you their progress's too a wee bit later on :)
I forgot last week with all that went off to show you the PIF prize I sent to Inky ... she absolutely adores it and he will be on show all year round ..... Inky is doing the great scissor scamper for a wee bit of fun and I have taken a photo of my scissors and realised afterwards there are some missing off the photo ... nooooo ... ho hum they will get in next time ...lol  I seem to have one or two and some lovely scissor frogs too ....:)
The postie was lovely to me this last week too .... I received my blog win off  Laurie , the lovely Mary Ann Gollins sampler and she also sent the most cutest wee Kelmscott scissors which are just the right size for my paws and some Bohin needles yummm :) I was squeaking with delight when they turned up I an sure she heard me across the pond ..lol 
and the cutest wee pyn pillow came from Sally as a thank you ... I had actually printed this one off to do as a RAK as well .. great minds think alike heheheh :)


Thank you for all your kind words regarding my design .... the first part has now been released to 50 of my members on friendly stitchers  and every one who has stitched it so far  loves it and their colour ways are gorgeous :) in fact some are itching to get the next part now ...lol 
(if you taking part and  are reading this :) don't forget I want to see the photos before the next part is due ;)


On Sunday here in the UK it was mothers day ... and I hope you all had a fab day .... I got some lovely body shop bubble bath and lotion and a bath lily as  well as  lovely candle from Next off DD2 and DD 1 says I can order the Nashville LHN and Shakespeare Peddlers chart  Woooo Hoooo *VBG*


I was moaning to DH the other day that I used to have a lovely tidy house ..... until we got a wee bundle of black and white fur ....lol  I had to take a photo after he had had one of his mad moments of running through the house from one end to the other around the pouffe and on it and back round etc ..... just to show how it looks nine times out of ten here hehehehe .... 
He is off out on his walk with DD1 hence why I am catching up on here as he loves to cuddle me when I am sat at the computer and say hello to every one ..lol
another cuppa ??????
I've bobbed my Tusal photo on this essay ;) as I won't get back to do it on time and better  to be two days early than two days late than I was last month ...lol 
the jar on the left is the one with all this years so far in and the one on the right is this months with an extra soggy doggy drooled piece in there too  hahahaha .... I got up to make a drink and a length must have slipped on the floor and he thought he would try and see how tasty it was ..lol
I must admit I quite like to get up early on these sunny days and get every thing done and organised so that I can get a thread length or two in  in between the necessary jobs .. making brews , washing , ironing , making brews etc of the day hahahahah.... I have to do every thing in small doses .... but once done the day is mine .... 
I've just gone out and pegged a couple of things out and the birds are singing and the bees are buzzing and my flowers are gently nodding in the breeze .... may just have to go and have my next cuppa sat on the decking by my pond :)
sooo while you are all sipping your cuppas daintily here are the latest photos for you to drool over hehehehe
