What's new?


Hi!  I have been distracted lately.  My father has not been feeling very well.   We arent sure what the problm is just yet.  We hope to know results from test this week.  On top of that the stitching mojo seems to have taken a small vacation.  At least i hope its small.  I did work on CC Frosty Forest on Friday for a little bit.  





I think it i a good start.



Happy Sitching!

First Finish of 2014


Hi!  I just finished Shepherd's Bush All My Love.  This morning I decided today was going to be Shepherds Bush Sunday.  So in between laundry and dishes I started working on All My Love. If I had worked non stop it would have take just a little bit but laundry and dishes don't wait for stitching time to be over, well they do but there is only so long you can put them off.  Now both chores and this piece are done.
Happy dance for both!

Happy Happy New Year!

I hope your New Year is wonderful!

I went to Christmas Town in Williamsburg.  It was so awesome!  I hope to back next year.  The lights, the sounds, and smells put me in the Christmas mood.  Yes, I know Christmas is over but I so could have used the push earlier this season.  I just didn't feel like it was Christmas and now New Years.

Speaking of New Years, I started it off to a good start.  My hubby and I went for a four mile walk.  We did it in an hour.  Good pace I think.  My next thing to do is...yep you guessed stitch. I'm off to the shower and then to settle in to work on the Needlework Shop.  I have been struggling with the idea of  a New Year start but I think I'm going to just stick with working on my current project.  What about you new project or not?

Happy New Year!

Happy Stitching!

Fabric

Hi!  I have been going through my quilting fabric.  Partly at my daughter's pushing and other from my own pushing.  After my hubby's hospital stay last month it got me thinking about many things. One of which was my stash.  I starting think what if I had to down size my home where would I put it all.  That led to will I use all of my stash.  So the last few days I spent in the closet going through my fabric.  Today after work I have a pile of fabric ready to donate.  A couple of friends suggested a few good charities so that's what I plan to do.  Now I'm going to settle in and work on The Needlework Shop.
Happy Stitching!

Little bit

     Hi!
      Yesterday I spent a little bit of time stitching with a couple of wonderful ladies.  I had forgotten how nice it was to stitch with others.  I worked on CC Needlework Shop.  I was busy with quilts before Christmas so I feel a little behind on it.  After I finish blogging I'm going to work on it again today.
      The other day I started to go through my quilting fabric.  Not a huge project but no small task either.  I know what I want to keep but really have no clue what to do with the rest.  So I'm going to think on it but if you have ideas let me know.
Off to work on The Needlework Shop! :)

Happy Stitching!

Needle and thread



Today I picked up needle and thread for the first time in about two weeks.  It felt great.  My hubby have spent the day doing very little.  We sat around and watched movies. Which means stitching time for me.  I hope your Christmas was full of  all the things you love.  Mine was.  My SIL is a firefighter and had to work so we did the present thing on Christmas Eve. It was a little different.  We did spend some time Christmas day at the fire station with his fire fighter family and their families.  It was very nice.  His parents, brother and grandparents were there too.  Later we had dinner with my children and my parents.

Oh I promised some pictures of what I did work on before Christmas. I made two king size quilts. One for my son and one for my daughter.  They aren't great pictures, sorry about that.  




Happy Stitching!
