Tammy for all season blog hop update - day 6

Dear hoppers, I am extremely sorry for not having a tammy bag today to share with you. Its been really difficult find time to sew/quilt, between full-time job and a toddler who gets sick so often during the winter months. I know I shouldn't be giving any excuses but this is the truth :(.

I would like to thank you our wonderful cheer leader Mary from I Piece 2-Mary for this hop and Mdm Samm for hosting these wonderful blog hops.

I also wanted to thank Brooke Nolan and Cori Blunt for creating wonderful patterns for the hop.


Today's schedule.

    You will finish, I am sure. Sometimes life happens. Thanks for the giveaway. What a sweet thing for you to do. There have been lots of struggles with this hop. It's so nice to see everyone step out of their comfort zone and try something new. I visited them all so far and have learned something at every stop.

    It IS difficult to work and care for a toddler! I hope you find time to relax and be calm. Stitching can help you do that if you can find time to stitch! Hang in there! Some day you will miss these times with your little one, despite how tired you may be today! :)

    Hi, I know how you feel. I am about 1/2 way through. I thought I had plenty of time. Don't feel too bad. My work/job got in the way too but I do not have a toddler so I know you had even more limited time. Maybe we can both share finished projects in the near future!

    They call Cross Stitching Slow stitching for a reason. It takes time and concentration. Not something that always works out while we deal with life and it's ups and downs. Take your time and enjoy the rest of the experience. I have visited all of the other participants and left notes.

    I am sorry that life has been so hectic. I pray that your toddler is healing and life is not so chaotic. I hope that you will be able to make your Tammy bag and pinny as time passes. I'm glad that you know your limitations and didn't rush to make something with which you would not be happy. It's a blessing to encourage the others.

  23. CeLynnJanuary 16, 2015 at 2:57 PM

    Life sure can be rather hectic with little ones,especially when they are sick! You will find the time to get to it and when you do it will be beautiful.

    I have been around to see all the other stitchers and their Tammy's in various stages,some finished some not,but all beautiful!

    Hi Malini! Your post made me smile, because I can relate to it so much. I have some quilting and cross stitch projects that I have been working on for years, as I try to find the time. I admire you for putting your hat in the ring though! I enjoyed visiting the other bloggers that you listed, and made comments. Thanks for the generous giveaway!

    This seemed like a pretty challenging hop to finish for many participants. I've been following the hop but didn't participate. With both cross stitch plus the purse it would seem to be a bit of a time consuming project. That being said I hope you get to share some of your work in progress on your Tammy soon and feel better this winter, I've started taking 2 Airborne a day to try and top my constant cold I've had since late November!

    What a generous substitution. While I'm sorry real life intruded, as it does, rushing to finish would have added stress to what is supposed to be a fun diversion. I'm sure it will be lovely when the time is right. On visiting the other blogs, I found most had similar problems with either partial or alternative finishes. It is a rather large boat! Best of luck in the new year. Notwendy gmail

    I checked out the other bloggers and left comments. Seems that several others had trouble finishing too. That's part of the reason I don't do cross stitch anymore -- it just takes so long!
