Weekend Stitching

Hi all... Did I mention how I enjoy having your blogs to read? And someone else shares my interests? Well... If I didn't, please know that I do! And I thank you for leaving comments!

I went and had the big Bozo bandage removed. Doctor says it looks good, and will probably do the other one next week! Yikes! Well, I am enjoying the extra stitching time, and being lazy - - - but, Owie!! I never even got out any Valentine's stuff!!

On to stitching stuff! I finished up part one of the Quaker Sampler on Sunday. I'm stitching on 28ct. Antique Ivory Vintage Linen with DMC #930. (I think that's my favorite color.)


I also put in some time yesterday and today on "Blessings be Thine" by Blackbird Designs.

I now have to decide if I want to work on the kit that Chuck got me last week,

the Whitework Freebie, or the pretty heart freebie that I noticed on Von's blog. You all are enabling me!

(Dang... seems like they don't want me to add pictures! I'll try again later.)

***Edit 02-14-06

Was finally able to add the pictures!

I decided to go with the heart freebie. I pulled some 18ct white aida, (the only white I could find! -- I need to find that tub of missing fabric!), and an Olde Willow fiber called Red Rock. (I received the Desert Series - Limited Editions from my sister for Christmas!) so far it's been fun to watch the roses take shape.

Hi Myrna! I hate when Blogger doesn't cooperate with me!! Glad you got the huge bandage off.
Glad you have been enjoying all the blogs - I do too! What a great source of encouragement and enabling, as you noted, lol!

Rest up ... Looking forward to pictures - I really like the Blackbird design; however, I vote for the heart-theme!!! Happy Valentine's Day.

Love the piece from Blackbird Designs. That heart freebie is calling to me too!
