Mysterious Fog . . .

Hello all, hope you're all settling into the colder season with plenty of warm woollies and cups of hot chocolate. These two things sum up my past week! Schoolwork has calmed down a little bit, only two more pieces of coursework to go. My first thing I have to share is the bizarre fog we had a couple of days ago.


Now, fog might not seem remarkable but this photo was taken at 4:30pm! This is the first time I've seen fog last for so long, does this happen much where you live?
Onto the stitching news, I ordered some new stash again. I do try and keep my spending to a minimum so I buy one lots of stash each month. This is November's batch and it was only a little one.


The Crescent Colours "Black Coffee" is going to be used to stitch one of the Britty Kitty designs that I got in my last stash enhancement. The others are DMC and will be used for the two Lizzie*Kate designs I also purchased. I'm starting on this one this evening . . .


Yep, I'm getting underway with my seasonal stitching, I think it might be my favourite thing to stitch. Thank you so much for your comments about what to stuff your pillows with. I have ordered some polyester stuffing that should arrive in the next week or so. I think it's great that a relatively new stitcher like me can have access to the wealth of knowledge from stitchers in blogland. So thanks again!
I'll be back with a new start and a progress pic on The Foxes, which I have been working on this past week. I hope you are all having a lovely week, plus it's Friday tomorrow! :)

In my neck of the woods (Eastern Ontario, Canada) we don't get fog frequently and often just in the morning before the sun burns it off.

yea that fog was spooky lol even my dog refused to go for a walk!! I love that Lizzie Kate design and have it in my stitching pile for next week :) be warned you will need a brown colour to do the tree trunk, the symbol for it was missed off the list on the back of the design. (was checking out the lizzie kate site earlier and it's listed in the boo-boo section :)

Love the LK design you are going to be starting, Bekca--very cute :)

When we have fog it is just a morning thing and we don't have it often--thank goodness!

Hope your stuffing arrives quickly so you can begin filling your pillows and ornaments. Have fun stitching for Christmas!

We've had some strange fogs here too but usually in the morning, not in the afternoon. That would be a little creepy! Unless it was Halloween, of course. Love your new design. Those are always so much fun to stitch up.
