How are we in February, my first post of the year

 I finished stitching my stocking Gardeners Delight.

Kooler designs.  This was done on 14ct Aida by

Picture this plus. It's beautiful and I am debating

Which fabric to finish it with.

 This is by cottage garden

Songbirds series #4

Promise of spring Hope.

Stitched on 32ct spellbook Jobelan by Colourandcotton.com

The framed I purchased at Hobby lobby 50 

Percent off.  It fit perfectly.  I laced and finished

It myself.  Don't you  love the butterfly?

 I started embroidery this year and love it.

I have a subscription to Punchneedle &

Primitive Stitcher.   In my opinion the best

Magazine on the market.  This is a punchneedle pattern.

Summer 2007 issue.  Petals and pins by Julie Thomas

I trace the pattern and embroider instead of doing

Punchneedle.  I am trying not to go down that

Rabbithole.  Embroidery is much quicker then cross

Stitch and it gives me a break in between large cross

Stitch pieces.  This is a gift.

 This embroidery pattern is from

The December/christmas issue 2018

Pattern is chilly chums .

I love cardinals and this piece makes  me smile.

 My son Christopher got his first dog.

He is half Husky and half pomeranian.

He is beautiful and his name is grandpa.

My new granddog.  I don't have grandchildren.  Maybe

Some day.  

We did get a little snow, not much.

It was beautiful and it was a winter wonderland.

To all my friends who are experiencing crazy

Weather temps and tons of snow, spring is

Coming soon.  I have a link to my last video, more

Details on each piece.https://youtu.be/2Gsz8jW6EBc

To each of you who stop by and leave a comment,9 thank you.

I read each one.  

Happy stitching 🌻

A clip on the back.  I monogrammed the scarf

Be a surprise for stitchers.  They are super cute.

 This is a cranberry cake I made for Christmas.

A great combination of sweet/tart

I hope everyone had a blessed Christmas.

The stitching community is the kindest group

I have ever belonged to.  As we head into the new year,

I wanted to wish everyone a blessed, healthy, and happy

New year.  I read each and every comment, thank you

For taking the time to say hello.

This year I stitched 102 cross stitch pieces.
I gave away over 3 dozens gifts to stitchers.
I have never stitched that many in one year.

2019 will be a different year of  stitching for me.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
