Weekend update.

I had a great time visiting at the Open house that Ann had at Knowledge and Needles!
It was fantastic, She had great things set up for sale from the Nashville convention . Lots of new designs.
I picked up some wonderful fabric and threads. A couple of little charts and will look again when I go back on Thursday to stitch!

It was great to see Dani and Christin.
And thanks Ann for a nice lunch!
I'm so happy you had a good weekend!

Today I had my Mom here for the day [our usual Sunday] But she and My DH watched the Curling so I got lots of stitching done. They are enjoying the Briar and There is no way I have any control of the TV while that is on!
I don't really mind!

I hope you all " stitch with happy fingers! "

If you are interested?

I saw this on Oma's blog , to win a gift from her.......Which I did, she is sending me a gift because I was in the first 5

And I thought it might be fun,

This is the way it goes...
The first 5... yes five... people to comment on this post only...Will receive a gift stitched by me.

There is a CATCH.. PIF

1-You MUST do the same... post this on "Your blog" and pass on to FIVE folks as well.
2-You will receive this gift within the year...mind you mine will be ready soon.
3- I have already started stitching
4- If you don't want to Pass It Forward please leave the space for someone who would like too.
5- It MUST be something hand made by you. Your choice of course! No pressure!


So here goes...Who will be the first 5???

Ready set GO GO GO !!!!!

Thank you all for your nice comments on my blog NEW LOOK!

A new Look

I've been playing around with my Blog. I felt it needed a new look.

I did a little bit of stitching this week.
Not a lot.

I think I needed a break from every thing this week so didn't stitch for 3 days...That's a lot of time off for me.
I did sing a lot [3 practices] and had a luncheon today.
So this evening I played around with the computer and stitched on the HAED... not much to show there mind you.


My White Christmas is looking pretty good...I can see progress!

A Lovely Gift

Last week, Christine of Coffee cup thoughts drew my name and sent me this wonderful calendar as a gift.

It is the cutest. Each month has a chart and little saying to stitch up.

There are some sweet ones!

THANK YOU so much Christine...I LOVE IT!!!!


I did get some stitching done on the weekend . I will show it later this week.

I just needed to share this with you!

Take care and,
Stitch with happy fingers!

Coming along!

I've done a little on the page 3 of the Album of stitches so I know I must work on it over the rest of the week. Page 4 comes out the 1st of Mar. So I would like to have this one done. They give us 2 months for the next page and this time I left it to the end...oops!

This is why.....

Yup its the ICE KING DRAGON ...can't you tell?
I've been working on it...hard to believe how small the stitches are...25ct over 1.
This 1/3 of page 1...only 44&2/3 to go.




This little lady has had most of my attention on the weekend. She is so much fun to do.


Now I must say I have been very selfish and not s[ent so much time on the computer. When I do that I get lots of stitching done. I found I was on too many hours and wasn't getting much else done so I've cut back on that a bit.
So I'm reading many blogs but not always taking the time to comment..SORRRRRY. I'll try and do better.
I'm also practicing 3 times a week for choirs and also working on the music at home. I seem to have less time now then I did when I was working...hmmm maybe I managed my time better then. I seem to put things off so I can stitch. ???? Am I addicted ???? do I need help??? NOT!

I've been stitching

This was a weekend of stitching because we had a lot of snow.
Today I'm trying to get caught up with the blogs too.
I didn't do any on the weekend because my Mom was here and I don't like to spend time on the computer when I can be stitching with her.
I did do quite a bit on the Mirabilia and on the PL.

I don't really have any other news...
Oh yes I do.... I've lots 11 lbs, Which I think is pretty good I only have 4 more to go. Then I'll be happy.
I didn't have a lot to lose but it's coming.

Have a wonderful week and stitch with happy fingers.
