Turtle Trot 2013 May update

It is time for Turtle Trot 2013 SAL update . Every 13th of the month we share the progress on our chosen 13 projects for this SAL . See here to know about my 13 projects. To read about and sign up for this SAL , visit BAP Attack blog .

This month I could not work much on the pieces . Partly due to lack of time and also I started one more new cross stitch project . Still , I am happy that I did made some progress :)

Completed hairs ; Lots of them and lots of quarter stitches !! It was a bit difficult to work with black color since the stitches were not easily visible . It will look better once the outline is done .  I love her shoes , they are cute and of different colors :)

I try to devote 1st to 15th of every month to cross stitch and remainng days for crochet , although it doesn’t relate to my posts which are more often on crochet finishes :)

Have a nice day !
Preeti :)

  2. Great progress Preeti. Just think, if we were not doing this SAL probably none of these pieces would be worked on. I know mine wouldn't.

  3. You are up to so many lovely projects! The second seems like it'll take a while to accomplish it - so many shades to cross stitch! But consistency in making of it will do a trick :)
    The Drama Queen looks cute! Can't wait to see when she is all cross stitched and placed..where?
    Where did you get the cross stitch charts from? Online?
    Have a wonderful day, Preeti!
