March SAL Updates.... April Stitching Goals....

Hello! Easter has come and gone... as has our ocean cruise that we booked a year ago.... and now April has arrived!  I was trying to think of something silly to do for April Fools Day - but as I am a bear with a very little brain (Pooh Bear reference) which is not working properly lately, I gave up!!!

My update below is serious and I promise you not an April Fool's Day trick! :o0

So let's start with a bit of a recap of what I achieved in March and then we can move onto my stitching goals for April.
