A finish

Happy Wednesday!! Finished...

"My Betrothed Sampler" by Birds of a Feathers


36 ct, I can't recall the linen w/Sampler threads and DMC



Saturday was the GTG at Welcome_Stitchery in Crystal lake, IL.


There was 19 of us for lunch, it was a fun day.


Meari drove 1/2 hr to my house to ride with me, yay!


My camera didn't capture a very good pic of all of us, you can go to Eva's blog and see them.


I did get photo's of Kim's (no blog) fantastic finish
It's called The Canadian_Journey Book, click the link for details








Oopsie!!! upside down, sorry for the headstand shot :)





Remember when I did the Lizzie Kate Boo Flip-its in the kermit linen??


I whacked out again and went with Carrot linen for the Lizzie kate Halloween Rules


I love the bright linen colors, for these fun designs so much more then the drab color called for


Here's my new stash



I did pick "In the Garden" (Adam & Eve) by La-D-Da and already have it, does anyone want to do a trade??


The linen for the Jardin design came yesterday and can't wait to start it.


Speaking of new starts...


"Witches Hollow" won over JB Halloween Sampler by just 3 votes, so that will be a new start there too :)


I am almost done with the BOAF stocking, but with tax time crunch, softball games high school and club and the grandkiddies, there's not much time left to do what I love to do... stitch


We are taking the family out for pizza tonight to celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary today


Is there an old blogger that I can do my post with???


It's hard to arrange the photo's and add links, any help would be great, Thanks!!!


I can't hardly stand to post anymore, it's not easy like it use to be


Whew!!! I think that's about it, Thanks! if your still with me :)


Happy Stitching!!!
