Finished At Last!!

I can finally breathe a sigh of relief!! I've finished the sample for part two of my Secret Squirrel project that I will be teaching next weekend (EEK!! Nervous twitching!!) at the Girls' Getaway Weekend hosted by Marian and Steph of Quilters Angel at Highfields. I've had part one of the top secret project finished for quite a while - over a month! - and although I had managed small amounts of progress on part two of the project ... it just never seemed to come together. BUT ... after a couple of busy, feeling-slightly-icky days where there was no stitching, I buried myself in my sewing room this afternoon and finished it ... completely ... except for the instructions!!! (GROAN!!) That will be tomorrow's task, but today, I'm HAPPY DANCING!! Hippity! Hoppity! Shuffle, shuffle! Booty shake!! :0) Oops! Neighbours once more wondering when we adopted a pet elephant and taught it to clog dance! Tee! Hee! Hee!

Now ... I can't show you my finished project - which is a bummer, cos I LOVE how it's come up and I want to share!! - but I CAN show you a sneaky peek! Ready???


Does that whet your appetite?!? Cheryl of Polkadots And Rick-Rack will love this as it has both of her favourite things included! I promise I'll show a full reveal photo - of the project, not me!! The world is NOT ready for that! But until after the weekend of March 13, 14 & 15 the ONLY way you'll see more is to join Marian, Steph and I at the Girls' Getaway Weekend! I'm really looking forward to it and my best bud Lynette rang today to say she MAY be able to come too! WOO! HOO! Ummm ... wonder if I should warn Marian?!? NAH!!! Surprises are good for her! Tee! Hee! Hee!

Hope you've had a productive day, too. I'm ALREADY getting emails from OPAM Challenge participants with finishes for March!! WOW! There must be lots of space in sewing cupboards by now with so many projects being finished. Or NOT?!?! :0) Happy stitching and Bear Hugs!

CHEERS!

The word 'chocolate' has caught my attention... [giggle]

I'm sure it will be another wonderfully popular Tag Along Teddies design.

Enjoy your rest day today Kris - you deserve it.
Hugs,
Kerryanne
