First TUSAL 2018!

I haven't done TUSAL in quite some time so I'm excited to report in for this bit of funzies.

January 1st I emptied my ORT jar and here is where it was on that day of days.

January 1st
January 17th
It may seem like I had not emptied it in a year and that's just not the case!  I had emptied it several months ago after moving from Alaska to Colorado.

In this jar lies the debris of 5 Halloween projects, some biscornu, an ornament and some other stuff I don't remember right now.  There was some crazy stitching and crochet going on until the last of the year.

Once emptied, the immediate need to start filling it up again overcame me, but so far this is all I was able to stuff in there.  There is quite a bit of ripping in there, here's hoping next time will see less ripping and more stitching!

Now that I am back to following along with the TUSAL, I will empty my pretty blue ORT jar and begin again!  

Until next time.....KEEP ON STITCHIN'!

    1. Thank you! Every time I think I'll made a new one, I look at my blue one and it says "don't you dare do it!" haha!

  2. This jar is great what a fantastic way to recycle. Love all the orts looks like a productive start to 2018 even with the ripping.

  4. I still love your gin-jar, and I ended up buying a couple of extra (luckily people sell the extra empty bottles on the internet! I don't gin, so I won't be "making" my own :) ) to make into vases for friends.
    Happy stitching!

    1. YAY Suz!! I'm so glad my gin-jar has inspired you! They are so pretty and the fun herbal facts on the jar are an added bonus :D I don't drink hard stuff so it took a loooooooooooooooooong time to get that jar emptied. It never occurred to me to look online for an empty one! Thank you for that tip :D
