Long Overdue Spring Cleaning

As you can see, I've got spring fever! Although there is still a large amount of snow left on the ground, there is a feel of spring in the air and for me it can't come soon enough. It's been a long winter in more ways than one. My new template is from here. I have been really into birds lately and I couldn't resist this colorful template.

I lost my stitching mo-jo for a while and had not picked up a needle in a very long time. I did start and finish a pair of socks for my sister this year but I just couldn't seem to find an interest in any of my stitching projects. Although I was itching to start something new, I decided to pick up my Halloween Fairy UFO and make it a WIP instead. Here's my progress as of yesterday morning.
Today is my SAL day on the Alexandre project from Tempus Fugit. I am working on the 2nd panel and will post an updated photo of my progress tomorrow as I hope to get more time to stitch on that today.
