She's Home, She's Home!!!

Hello!  Hello!

Can you tell I am excited?!  Well if not, I am very excited :)

Yesterday I hung Titania on my wall and all was right in my world.  She was framed by Old Crow Weaving & Framing.  They did the most wonderful job of choosing the perfect mat and frame.  I couldn't be happier with how she turned out.  And now I get to stare at her every day.


I have been getting a little bit of stitching done too.  Here is Cassie Cow, which I was able to finish off 6 colors on yesterday.


One more measly word got stitched on ABC's of Parenting


And 23 whole stitches was all I manged on Cars the last day I stitched on it.


I do have a good excuse, I was finishing off a really good book.  It is called Lake In The Clouds by Sara Donati.  It is book 3 in the Wilderness Series.  If anyone is looking for a new series of books to sink your teeth into this is a good one!  The books start of with a lady coming from England to live in a remote village in New York in the late 1700s to start a school for the children of the village.  That is all I am giving you.  

And then I started another really good book that is the complete opposite of Lake In The Clouds.  It is called Ready Player One by Ernest Cline and is set in 2044, people are living in travel trailers stacked 40 high because we have run out of room and virtual reality is how everyone does everything.  I.Can't.Put.It.Down.  I was reading it while I waited for my pictures to upload on this post!  Ha!  And it is being made into a movie directed by Steven Spielberg!  Hopefully the next book I pick up is a boring one so I can get some stitching done.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stitching!

First TUSAL of 2017

Hello all!

It is TUSAL time again!  Wondering why I am sharing thread scraps?  Head over to Daffycat's blog to find out all about it.

So without further ado, my orts:




This month the projects that contributed to my orts were -

Colin Cardinal by Brooke's Books - completed


Cassie Cow by Brooke's Books - barely started


The Gift by Blackberry Lane - Still plugging away.  This was supposed to be my ornament for December on the Christmas Ornie SAL Blog so I am now 2 months behind.  Eeek!


ABC's of Parenting by Lizzie Kate - made it past the half-way mark!


Cars by a desinger on Etsy who seems to have closed up shop - finished 2 rows!


And that is it for this month.

Happy Stitching!
