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 🌻

 Pattern by Prairie schooler
Button up.  I did a snippet .  So
Cute.  Made him into a tiny ornament.
 These snowmen I purchased at 75 percent
Off at one of the craft stores.  They have
A clip on the back.  I monogrammed the scarf
And sent all 6 out as stitching gifts.  They will
Be a surprise for stitchers.  They are super cute.

Thank you to all the stitchers who made my
Christmas brighter.
 This is a snowman I made for my brother
In law who does home improvements.
I just used E6000 glue and added the scarf
 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
