Finish #2
Peter Polar Bear by Brooke's Books
Part of the Advent Animals Freebie Series
Stitched on 28ct Evenweave
Fibers used : DMC
Started Feb. 9,2016
Finished Feb. 22, 2016


I also finally finish finished Joy To The World.  I used buttons to attach the ribbon.


I also put some backing on it.  My mama gave me the idea to use Christmas cards.  I really like it!  I knew I was saving all those old Christmas cards for something!  Being a pack rat pays off now and then!

Well that is it for me today.  I just got home a bit ago from stitch night, a great time as always.  We started discussing our retreat which is in May!  So exciting!!  

One last thing.  Does anyone talk like this where you live??



I honestly can't tell you how many time someone has asked me "who my fadder was?"

Peter has a sweater!

Hello dear friends!

It warms my heart to think of you all that I have met through this blogging community sending your get well messages :)  So thank you all very much!

I started to come around last evening so I pulled out Peter Polar Bear and finished his sweater and gave him a cute little tail.


I don't know where this month went!  I better get a move on if I am going to meet any of my SAL goals!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stitching!

My brain is not up to this challenge.




Hi Friends!

I think I have royally messed up the photo placement here but we are just going to go with it.   I have been under the weather all day today and moving these pictures around is way over my head right now.  The one on the right is before and on the left is after.  I forgot what parts I had stitched so I figured it would just be easier to add both pictures.

Jamie just brought me home some Ginger Ale so I am going to go rest and sip some Ginger Ale.

Temari Tuesday #8

Hello friends!

I stitched a little bit on Little Wings yesterday until I noticed one of my threads was missing and I couldn't find it anywhere, so that took the wind out of my sails.  Does that ever happen to you?  I stitched the white at the bottom and random small green patches throughout.


Last night at stitching guild was Temari night.




I think I will give this to my mom for mother's day since it matches the one I gave her for Christmas.  It feels nice to be ahead for a change!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stitching!
