Well, it's 2:40 am and I can't sleep so I thought I would post a few little things I have did the last couple of days.
But before that I have fabulous news. Now many of you know that I have been longing to meet someone who stitches.
Get this! Eva sent me e-mail saying the gals were meeting up on the 21st at Welcome-Stitchery and ask me to join them. How cool is that? I am so excited.
O.K. what have I been up to? This...
We are not coffee drinkers, therefore we don't own a coffee brewer, so I went to a gas station and bought a cup of black coffee, dunked it and baked it, 18 ct Aida. The lighting under my day lamp is still not the best at this time of night.
I think I will stitch this
"Welcome Home" by Birds of a Feather, gotta love them chipmunks.
I tried to start Priness Parade, but it didn't get too far.
I also have made some beaded scissor FOB's for my Jamie and Sophia Gingher
That's it for now.
Happy Stitching!!!!

Beaded scissor fob looks pretty. The coffee dyed fabric looks gorgeous.
Congratulations on your dyeing attempt. The fabric came out so great.
A meeting and stitch-in at a LNS is always fun. I have never attended such an event because I don't have LNSs. Will it be the 14th next month?
Great scissor fobs!
How wonderful you are getting to meet fellow stitchers,especially in a LNS.
Great fabby dying and lovely bead fobs
Love the fabric dying, I am just going to have to bite the bullet and have a go at this one day! Love the scissor fobs too, aren't you just amazing plus the teacups. So glad about the stitching invite too. Love Patti xxx
PS me again it was on Eva's blog that had the teacups. Patti the forgetful xxx
Oh, that's a great BOAF! I've never seen it before. And I am seriously LMAO at the thought of going out to buy a cup of coffee to do coffee-dyeing! That's going to be my chuckle for the day. DH and I can't make it through the morning without our cup of the heavenly brew .... Happily addicted. (But I only drink 2 cups a day, so it's not a bad addiction, right? LOL.)
Great job on the dyeing, and I can't wait to see how it stitches up. And I'm so happy for you that you'll get to meet some other stitchers IRL. ENJOY!!!
Enjoy your meeting! That is so fun, hope it goes even better than you expect. :) The coffee dyed fabric looks great, and that BOAF chart is adorable! Love the fobs, too.
Your fabric turned out AWESOME! And the beaded fobbies look fantastic....I think it's funny how we have those I can't sleep moments and wind up in the creative mood. Thanks BTW for your cyber hugs....:)
Love the fabric you dyed.
Can not wait to see your progress on this new piece.
Love the scissor fobs.
That's wonderful you've found some stitchers to hang with, a stitching group is such fun. Your fabric looks fantastic, you did a great job on it, perfect for samplers and such like Welcome Home. Looking forward to seeing your progress on it, the chipmunks are cute. The scissor fobs look very pretty too, you've been busy.

Ranae, the fabric looks fantastic! It will be great for your new project.
Love how you dyed your fabby--great idea girl! The new BD chart is so cool!
Very pretty fabric! Starbucks gives away used coffee grounds for garden compost...those would work as well.
The coffee dyed fabric looks great.
