Stitchin'...





Well the day has been a good one, could have been better, but it was good I am thankful for that. Cleaning and such, a wonderful visit from my best friend, and spent much of the evening with a needle and hoop in my hands! I was able to complete the framed snowman stitchery and then even stitched to small panels to make into hand towels for the bathroom for Christmas! Some light staining on the framed one...not the sort of thing to make you say it looks like it fell out of the back of the truck! HAHAHA! I know it needs a bit more pop of color from the frame to really stand out, but I do love the worn look of the frame..so for right now this is its home!




So I have also been cutting squares to make the rag quilt for the tree skirt for my little Alpine tree...this is a stack of about 64 squares...need about 24 more to make it a go...in ALLLL of this craft stuff, you'd think I'd have a rotary cuttery, but I don't, it would make the work so much faster! I hope to start sewing it in the next few nights...I would tonite, but the time change is starting to tell on me!!! Good grief...it is only an hour's difference, but you'd think it was 3 or 4! Weird how that works!

Well I am about to get ready for the work week...pretty much for me that is just adjusting my mind for it...not that I iron everything for the week or what have you...it just takes the mental preparing for it! LOL! I do think I will try to knock out one more project tonite...another blanket for my uncle...3 down and 6 more to go...I'll try to make it 4 down!
