Sunday Update

Hope everyone is well on this fine February weekend! I have not been up to much. Just my usually stitching!!!:)!

I did finish my Tulips and Fans:



This was a fun stitch and of course if you have not noticed all ready my favorite colors! Pink and Green!

I also did the finishing on my EGA state day project. Our chapter will be hosting the 2009 Indiana State Day and this is my interpertation of the design that was done by our member Jammee:

If any of you are EGA members and live in the vicinity or state of Indiana I hope you will join us in October the day will be filled with fun and stitches.
Well for the most part I have the rest of the day free just have to make dinner and finish up the laundry so I am off to stitch on my Bostons.
Until next time,
May you be blessed with stitches,
Karol

Tulips and Fans update

I thought I would share an update of my Tulips and Fans piece. It is coming along pretty well.


Of course the fact that it is in my favorite colors (pink and green) helps. I just have to finish up the blocks and then borders.
Maybe another week or so of stitching and then a finish. We will see.
I am glad that tomorrow is friday looking forward to a quiet weekend with stitching time. How about you?
Until next time,
May you be blessed with stitches,

Weekend Winddown

Well the 13 inches that I showed you on Wednesday officially was about 25! Needless to say it took the ds over 2 hours to get the drive plowed that evening. But guess what Friday it warmed up and Saturday it was in the 50's so the majority has melted away. Not sure if that will be the end of it but the way this winter has gone I am not counting on it. I have been stitching away on my tulips and fans canvas piece a little to late to get a decent picture though. Sorry, will get one this week. It is stitching up fairly quick. I hope you all have had a pleasant and stitchy weekend!
Until next time,
May you be blessed with stitches,

SNOW DAY!!!!!

I have a finish!! I finished up this freebie from Big Toe Designs:



And what an appropriate thing to finish up because I woke up to this:



Yes close to 13 inches of snow since yesterday afternoon! I left work early because in my son's word we where getting pounded and it continued and we are still getting some more snow. I decided to spend the day at home because even my two favorite guys in the there pick ups did not think it was to great out there. Once you got away from our house 20 minutes are so you where fine. But me I am nice and cozy at home.

I wanted to share an update of my HAED picture. Less then one page to go!!


Since I finished up snow I should be stitching on my bostons or my HAED but I am going to be bad and do a new start:


Even a girl who likes winter needs to dream of spring sometime!!!
Well I think the grandpuppy (husky) has probably thought I abondend him in the snow. Isn't he supposed to like it? So I better go get him. Then put my canvas on the frame, make some popcorn for lunch, start stitching and catch up on my recorded quilting shows!
Until next time;
May you be blessed with stitches,
