Happy Friday!!!

I had all good intentions of stitching Anne Pierce Drown sampler from Sampler & Antique Needlework Magazine, really I did
But... I didn't like the colors called for or my own, so I quite stitching on it and decided not to trash it but rather make Brianna a little pillow from the top and added I Love You


She picked out the fabric and away I sewed. She always loves to stuff my smalls.

I started Thine is the Trick and the Treat by Prairie Moon


Eek linen with Belle Soie, Old Crow, this is what I'm going to stitch on all weekend, no exceptions

I made this yummy overnight blueberry French toast. It was a hit with everyone for breakfast. You can find the recipe at allrecipes.com




Here's an update on Old Glory by Rosewood Designs



I'm thinking right now I need a new camera, everything looks so washed out and dull

Have a super duper weekend all

Happy dance!!!

Good evening!
I finally finished a very, very old UFO
A weight off my shoulders, lol




Judith Kirby Halloween houses #9 (1989) and #15 (1994)
Stitched on 14ct or 18ct pewter gray aida
With DMC threads
I'm not sure how to go about doing this, but they are up for sale or trade
I will take a gift card credit to like 123 stitch, trade for other patterns, linen
or such. I would even consider a finished awesome stitchy piece

These are hard to find charts, especially finding them together
I would even consider breaking them up
I know lots of stitchers would love to stitch this design, and you may have one or the other.
Email me (found in my profile) and let me know what ya got.
I will take first come first serve to what I want for these charts
Does that seen fair?
#9 has a little wear, otherwise they are in good condition
We are under a winter storm watch, lots of heavy snowfall tomorrow,
I see it as lots of stitchy time.
I think I deserve to start something new, don't you!!??
Thanks for stopping by

Tribute to Summer

Happy Hump Day!!!

I have another finish



Tribute to Summer by Stacy Nash Primitives
Stitched on 30ct cocoa linen with GA threads
My favorite, for once, was the border, ha
It was such a joy to stitch, I love the colors

Then I and Anna went to the Inspired Needle stitch-in. We stopped at the Vera Bradley outlet in a mall on the way there.
Here is my grand model showing it off



The Folkloric grand tote




I also bought the Boysenberry address book she's holding up

My favorite Vera design is Canyon and one hope to own something in that pattern
The outlet store I go to only carries discontinued patterns, so they don't have the Canyon design there :(

What's yours???

I forgot to snap a pic of my purchase from the Inspired Needle
I bought a couple patriotic designs, a Word play by Brenda Gervais with enough 35ct linen to do four of them

I turned off the word verification (that annoying step to leave a comment) and will see how many spam I get, hopefully not as many as I was getting

Thanks for stopping by my little part of the woods

Happy stitching!!!!
