1 month anniversary

Yesterday was the one month anniversary of the death of my grandmother and as a way to feel closer to her I sat and stitched on my Rose Beauty. I took a picture but I am currently at my brother in laws house and the picture is on my hard drive at home. I have been stiotching on it here too so I will post a picture of the progress I have made while being here. I am sure that it isn't going to be that much of a difference but at least it is going to be some progress. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else worked on this weekend and as soon as I get back home I will post the progress that I made today.

Stitching Saturday

Here is the progress that I have made on my Rose Beauty project. I decided to leave the project on hte sofa and every time I passed it I put a few stitches into it. Have some laudry to do today, have to go and take a shower and get ready to go to brother-in-law's too. Off to start the fun LOL LOL

Update Pics

Here are 2 Barbara Ana quickies that I did this weekend and then the pic of Ashley name piece fiinshed (finally took a picture of it) and the last picture os the progress that I am making on Rose Beauty from the Babrbara Baatz Beautiful Blossoms leaflet.

Here Come the Rain

OK it has been a while since I have been on here but life has gottne in the way. I finished Ashley's name piece (pictures of everything to follow) and then the stitching bug kind of died down but I did get the crochet bug so I went with that for a little while. My grandmother recently passed away and I remember her always sitting with me when I used to sleep over and we would sit and corchet together so I guess that in a way that has made me feel better doing that. Kind of makes me feel closer to her.

Opinions and Help Wanted

Started stitching this for my daughter and can't decide if I want to fill in the letters or leave them as they are. If I did fill them in I would fill them with the border color. What do you all think I should do???

Darn Frog!

OK so who sent this darn frog? I spent literally 2 hours frogging the right side of my WIP this morning. I was off by one row and it threw the whole thing off. I also took the kids to Dunkin Donuts for breakfast and went to get my hair cut. Now I am hoping that tonight I can work on WIP some more and actually stitch it the right way this time while watching Jon and Kate Plus 8 (LOVE THST SHOW!!!).

St. Sylvestre WIP

Here is my latest update on St. Sylvestre. This week is school vacation so I am hoping to finish if not come close to finishing this this week.

Decided it was time that Ashley DEFINITELY needs to be in a big girl bed. Jerry is going to go to my grandparents house as soon as he gets up to get her bed and then the crib will be GONE GONE GONE. Now I tried once before to put her in her big girl bed and all she did was scream, but now she seems really excited to be getting one. Maybe that is because I promised to get her Tinkerbell sheets for her new "big girl bed". Hope you all enjoy the attached pics of my progress and of my 2 little monkies.

Mushy Monday

Thanks to the few inches of snow that we got yesterday it is now a mushy and icy day. I did manage to get lots done on St. Sylvestre yesterday and thought I would show off what I got done.

Here is what I got done yesterday due to having a me day. Got lots of progress done.

Have a load of laundry in the washer and other than that I have decided to have a day all to myself. I need to take Ashley to get her hair cut after she gets up from her nap in between that and getting the kids lunch in dinner then all I will be doing is....STITCHING!!!!! I am flying along on St. Sylvestre and loving every minute of it.

Finally Some Sun

Well after having yet another snow day yesterday we finally have a day where the sun is shining. I opened all ofthe blinds in the house and am enjoying the sunlight. Here are a few pictures of where I was on St. Sylvestre before the Colts game on Sunday and where I was after San Diego beat the Colts. Now to just cross my fingers that the Pats go all the way!

Rainy, Cruddy Day

Finished Bride andGroom last night. Now what to stitch next. Decisions decisions. I am trying to decide if I want to do a rotation stitching or keep being just a one piece person.

Getting Closer

Getting closer to finishing Bride and Groom so I am 100% sure that I can finish in time for our anniversary.

Happy 2008 to all bloggers!

Happy 2008! Last night I sadly did not make it to ring in the new year. I planned on reading and then watching some TV but ended up falling asleep while reading. I did get the names and date charted for my Bride and Groom Silouette last night so now I can work on that after I get a little further on my project. Off to order some pizza. Hope everyone has a great new year.

Sweet 16

Here is what I got done on Bride and Groom while watching the Pats go all the way to have a perfect season--16-0. I am loving the way that this is coming out and am hoping to have it done by Jan. 20th for our anniversary.

Final Days of 2007

Not too many days left until the new year. Since finishing Cafe Au Lait towel on the 26th I have began to stitch Bride and Groom silouette that I will add our names and wedding date to. Here is a progress pic so far.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all my blogging friends. Here is a pictures of my 2 little turkeys. In the tradition of Thanksgiving I sat in my PJs and watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade and started stitching on Telling Secrets from Britty Kitty (not enough progress to warrant a pic yet). Hope that everyone had a great holiday and were enjoying great food.

It's Snowing...

and it is actually accumulating on the car outside. Not too much snow but enough that the ground and cars are white. Here are the pictures of the finishes that I have so far.

Cold November Day

OK girls sorry that I haven't been on here more but life is hectic and I have been trying to get more crafts, less computer time LOL LOL. As soon as I can find a new cord for my camera to upload pics I will post some progress pictures. I have been working on Britty Kitties Gotchya pattern. I saw on the 123 Stitch message board where a woman had stitched a couple of Britty Kitty patterns on one piece of fabric but for the life of me I can't figure out how I would go about doing that. All of the patterns are different sizes so how would go about figuring out how to make the whole thing with equal sides and that? Does that make any sense? Anyway since it is so chilly here I am going to go and make a cup of tea and sit and stitch and hopefully get the Kitty done.
