Last Picture Post


Well my camera has official gone to camera heaven.I put all the pictures on the computer before it did so until I save up enough money to get another one I am camera less for now. I did manage to get a picture of the finished Jordan project that I finished up yesterday. Just needs to be ironed and framed and then it can hang on his wall for him to enjoy. I have decide to stitch a Peony project that came with the new DMC Impressions fabric that I bought at AC Moore a few weeks ago. You can see a picture of the fabric here... When browsing Michael's the other day for some DMC 817 I came across some other Impressions fabrics but stopped myself from buying anymore fabric (until I go back to work of course LOL LOL). Then I am going to buy a couple more pieces. Off to take the kids outside for a little while before it starts to storm like they are predicting. Happy Stitching Day everyone!

A WIP and a Finish

After running out of DMC 817 last night I decided to pull out a UFO and figured I would finish this one up to pass the time. I am hoping to get Jordan's piece done by the end of the week. Looks like rain AGAIN so it may be a good night to curl up on the sofa and stitch the night away.

Bad Stitching Day Yesterday

OK whoever sent this frog to my house yesterday needs to come back and get it! I needed to frog out the A 3 times yesterday (maybe that is what I get for trying to stitch and watch a movie huh?) I was going to post the progress pictures but my camera batteries seem to be missing. I went out and bought some more this morning so once they are charges I will post them right away. Off to work on some email responses and then the day is ALL MINE!!!!

Summer Stitching

I started on stitching a name piece for Jordan last night so there is no real reason for an update picture. I will post one soon though. I have also stiched a few small things that I want to make into magnets so next time I go to the Dollar Store I will check it out and see if I can find some magnets to sttich on the back of the pieces. Other than that not much going on here. Other than swimming and hanging out outside with the kids. Off to stitch some more.

It's TOO Hot!

Today is another 3 H day (hazy, hot and humid). UGH!!!! I did a few small things here and there but other than that I am just trying to sit and stay cool. The kids are hanging out in front of Jordan's bedroom window watching the carpenter downstairs fixing the bulked (sp?) door. That is keeping them relatively quiet so I think that I may go and sneak in some Mommy stitching time.

And We Are Back...



After being without my computer for a couple of days we are now reunited and it feels so good. I did get a good deal of stitching in though as I am sure that you can see. Off to spend time with the family and stitch some more.
