1. Finish frog project
Lots and lots of progress made. Can't wait to show you guys, but this is a secret project! Here's a quick peek of some squares which will be joining my frog:
2. Start and finish London project
Only minimal progress made. This one's a 'definitely need to finish' project though, so it will get done.
3. Start and finish Mouthy Stitches bag and keyfob
Done! I very much enjoyed making the tote and keyring, and I'm very pleased that Sadie liked them.

4. Pick out fabrics for a quilt for hubby and I
Discovering I much prefer choosing fabrics in a shop to picking them out online, so I need to plan in some shopping time.
5. Maybe make some little things for people for Christmas
It's only November; no way I've thought about this yet!
6. Make my Texting While Sewing block into a cushion
Hasn't happened yet, not completely convinced it will. We'll see :)
I'm not sure how much sewing time I'm going to get between now and Christmas because... hubby and I are buying a flat! It's all happened so suddenly, it's the first place we viewed, and now we might be trying to move in before Christmas. Eep! All of a sudden, evenings are filled with mortgages and solicitors and 'can we live with pink carpets or do we want to change them' rather than fabric and sewing. Sad times, eh? I'm still making progress on the (slightly epic) frog project every so often though :)
Anyway, off to bed for now, I'll be linking up to the half-way point of the hustle tomorrow :)
not sad times - exciting times! And you are so going to win your category in the BQF

Thanks Kat! The project involves 32 mini embroideries in total, about half done by me, so it took a while!
