New project for the new year

I started this, early this morning and did as much as I could till this afternoon

I'm going to try to start another tomorrow, we'll see what it brings
Lots of snow on the ground here, maybe 7"-8" from yesterday to tonight, another inch expected over night, great stitching weather with the frigid temps too.
Happy snow days!!!

Oh! Where do I start? or the end of 2013

Happy New Year!!!
I hope everyone enjoyed Christmas, it was busy, but nice here with the family.
It's so fun to have grandkids
I wanted to play catch up this years end
Here are some of my WIP's I started this year




















I have had too many finishes in 2013 to post
I started Emerald Mermaid years ago, it's my goal to finish in 2014




Although this doesn't make a dent in my pile, heres a sampling of some of the things I have kitted and ready for 2014




Disclaimer... I have the right to change patterns and not to finish any of the above, not that I won't try
Here are some pics Christmas morning of my wonderful family
The grandkids




Our brats, haha




Me and Dan with the babies



Wishing you all a fabulous and healthy stitchylicious 2014
Thanks to all for visiting my corner of the world this year and years past
God Bless!!!

Bee square pincushion, wahoo!!

Carré d'abeilles by Jardin Prive











Bee square pincushion was stitched on 32ct white jobelan w/DMC
I was so excited I forgot to stick some pins in it.
Not very good pic's either, better in real life

My chart is spoken for and I know Jardin's are kind of hard to find in the U.S. or they use to be
I bought mine at The Inspired Needle, tel:(630) 243-9620, Cathy carries more of the Jardin too
I'm posting the info, because some have already ask me to trade it or where did I purchased the chart

Have a blessed Sunday everyone

Friday's BAP finish

Happy Friday!!!

I can't seem to put this one down, I love the lupine linen, it's like stitching on chocolate
