Hello!!!!

Happy Friday!!!!

First of all I would like to graciously Thank all of you that left comments and emails on my last post. Thank You! Thank You!!! They meant the world to me.
I finally finish Frederick, I love the colors.

Frederick by Carriage House Samplings

Well, my links seem not to be woking at this moment. Sweet Kathy A from Kathy's Sit and Stitch sent me some pretty spooky Carrie's Creation threads

Harvest Brew, Harvest moon and Halloween. I love them so much Kathy.
Thank You! my friend. Just right to get my butt in gear, lol

While I haven't felt like doing anything stitchy related. I did finish this design and even finished it off

Miss Mary Mac's Pins & Needles Pincushion by M Designs

Stitched on 35ct Parchment w/ CC floss, for the letters I used Needle Necessitites 127

filled with walnut shells

I do have two new starts trying to get the mojo juices flowing here. These colors are just so blah after stitching Frederick

Band Samplers by Prairie Schooler.

I dont have too much started on Houses of Hawk Run Hollow, so no pic.

I finally got around to drawing a name for the Happy Camper pattern. So sorry it took so long.

Teresa S from At the Willow Tree Pond blog is the lucky draw

Thanks so much for visiting.

Happy Stitching!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A finish and a new grandson

Happy Tuesday!!!

"Witches Nine" by The Primitive Needle
stitched on 40 mello

I have a brand new precious grandbaby.
Dalton Stephen was born on Friday, August 13th at 8:10pm
weighing in at 6lbs. 14oz.



The nurse put the ink stamp off Dalton's feet on daddy's arm.
Yes! he has since washed it off


I am so far behind in blogging. I just don't have the desire to stitch, read or be on the computer much these days.
Thanks so much for stopping by my little corner of world.

Happy Camper

It's Monday!!!!
"Happy Camper" by Raise the Roof Designs
Just a scrap piece of blue fabric with GA threads and Just Another Button Company buttons
If you are interested in this chart, let me know in the comments and I will draw a name
This is where I am with Witches Nine. I started the bottom border last night, I pretty sure that will involve many hours as it is slow going

I heard from Marjorie that she received my Blogoversary package this week.

Bent Creek designs. I think it may be called Boo Name Tag????

I was going to start Prairie Moon's "The Crypt Club" and notice it takes Belle Soie Silks. I tried the DMC floss toss and it's not anything like the silks. I don't want to make the investment on the silks right now, so it will go back in the draw. Darn it! I wish I would have seen that, oh well!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate the comments.

Tata for now

Halloweenie and some finds

Let the Halloween stitching begin...


"Witches Nine" by The Primitive Needle

I am stitching it on 40ct mellow with WDW

I finished my BOAF Wicked Witch into a little pillow ornament



I found this perprtual calendar at Bed Bath and Beyond and just had to have it. 29.99 with a 20% off coupon, warned!! not a good snap at all, but you get the idea. I hung it with fabric to match the kitchen colors.

I will leave you with my Friday finds

All .25 cents each

It took several tries getting Bri to hold it just right, lol

Can anyone tell me about the tape measure, the almost 100 yr old man said "it was real old"

Thanks so much for visiting and even more for leaving a comment.

2 finishes

Happy Monday!


After making the rest of the design bleed with a little water, I coffee dyed it.
"Their Song" by Blackbird Designs
I love it!!!!
It's one of my favorite pieces thus far
I finally finished Wicked Witch by Birds of a Feather- Halloween Icons

I was so surprised to get a sewing bag from Heather for my Birthday. It's the very first thing my family has gotten me so far for stitching. Hey! It's a start :)

Look! at this unique art- minus the bird poop

I bought it at a craft show. The lady has a sand pile that she makes a shallow grave and lays the leaf in and pours cement. It makes a great bird bath
My foot shows just how big it is

My cones flowers are looking gorgeous this year

Thanks for all the birthday wishes

and taking the time to stop by

Happy Summer!!
