C'est Fini!

Howdy to my faithful blogging buds!It certainly has been a most hectic week, but I am proud to announce I finally have put in the last stitches on 'This Is The Day' by Hands To Work! Without further ado, here it is!


Hands To Work 'This Is The Day'
JCS Jan/Feb 2009 Issue
32 Count R&R Reproductions French Vanilla
Converted Fibers, Crescent Colours, GAST and Weeks





I have been busy putting my new office to rights, course that also entails going through my two stash closets...and you know the time that takes, cuz there is so much to look at, plan and drool over! But I am making headway! Also had stitchey company last weekend, and that was great, great fun, as always!My friend Mary was a great help with my new fiber wall in the shop! We now have NPI Silks at Only One Ewe and they have been flying out the door almost as fast as I can get more ordered! Be watching though, since I will be adding a introductory sale on these on the website very soon!

Also lost my phone line, due to the mower running over it, so I was without phone AND internet for several days...NOT fun, but I did get other things done, maybe I needed that break! Took me awhile to get caught up on your blog posts, but think I finally have!

My stitching plans are to pull out Seven Days of Creation from Plum Street Samplers. I converted this sampler to overdyed fibers, I wanted the lettering, specifically to have some variegation, so far I am loving it! I will share a progress pic in just a few days, so come back soon! OH and another small finish that I have to take pics of yet!Of course I can't wait to start another couple of things, more about that later!

Thank you in advance for your wonderful and kind comments, I read them and always am blessed by what you have said, yes YOU!:)

This Is The Day That The Lord Hath Made, Rejoice and Be Glad In It! Here is hoping that your days are blessed with your families and friendships!!

Brrrr.....And Some Stitching






It turned sharply cold here last night and the readings are in the negatives for the windchill! I am sure glad that I planned to stay at home and work today! We did get a little more snow too, not much, maybe half an inch, but it did give the snow on the ground from last week, a fresh look, so that isn't all bad!

I finished a couple of things this week, always feels good to get a project done. Here is my progress on the Seasonal Saltbox Series, from LHN, I am stitching them all on one cut of 40 Ct linen, two done, two to go. I won't be working on this again, until March or April.

I also finished a small ornament, this is Rudy by Glory Bee Designs, stitched with Weeks fibers on 32 ct linen.
Lil Blog, please forgive me until I get the hang of this blog format! I got the pics backwards, but oh well!
Till next time, Happy Love Month!:)
