TUSAL – February New Moon

Not sure why I kept thinking that the new moon was on the 20th this month but I guess that was last month and next month. With the New Moon hitting the skies, that means it is time to post an update for the TUSAL (Totally Useless Stitch-A-Long) that is hosted by It's Daffycat. Click here to read about TUSAL in our host own words.

Yes, it might seem a bit odd to keep and then take pictures of our ORTs (Old Ratty Things) or snippets if you prefer to call them, but there has to be somebody a little crazier than you right? Well there are quite a few of us that are participating in the TUSAL this year. Here is the link to It's Daffycat's posting that has the link of the participants who have posted an update this month. I have been keeping my ORTs in a small square bottomed canning jar that came from my Great Grandma's supply. The crazy thing about using this jar for this is that hanging onto odd things was common for her to do. She was not a hoarder like you see on some of the TV shows today but kept things that she knew there was a future use or caused her to be quite frugal. This was due to living through many hardships like the Great Depression, two World Wars and all the innovations that happened in her 96 years.

Without further ado, here is my ORT jar. I have continued to get time to stitch. Lots of tree as I had been working on a tree. I'm planning to change projects so there should be some silk ORTs mixed in with the normal cotton ORTs when I start working on the Game Board Sampler. Once again Chocolate Mouse wanted to appear on my blog and he does quite well holding onto the ORT jar that I said okay.










Happy Stitching,


Well that is where I should have posted this but I had connection issues and thought I would get back to it, oops guess not. Once again…Happy Stitching
