Just busy with Life and Stitching

Well sorry about the no post for the last few weeks. Sometimes life just gets in the way. Last Sunday we had the two grandpuppies needless to say Ms. Kandi was not a happy camper. We had kept her in my sewing/computer room and when I came in she just wanted attention. She was really happy when Wednesday rolled around and they went home.
I have been stitching though.....



Finished the afghan for the DS and future DIL. Another Christmas present done!!


This is a little zippie Americana that my secret stitcher from guild gave me.



Then I finished Cranberry Pinafore this evening. Sorry for the lousy pictures. After I finished this I started on my Christmas ornament for our guild exchange so there won't be any pics of that.

Well I am off to Florida on Wednesday to visit my 92 year old grandmother. She lives alone unfourtnately I don' t think for much longer. I think some decisions and changes will have to be made.

I hope everyone is safe from the earthquake and hurricane. Mother Nature sure has made herself known this week.

Until next time

May you be blessed with stitches,

Karol

Just Stitching Along...

Call me crazy but I have been stitching along on the afghan:




The heat has been pretty tough(not as bad as others in our country) to have this laying around me. But I have kept at it and am about half way through. Luckly they are calling for some cooler temps this week.

This Friday I get to spend the day demonstrating cross stitch at the Fair. We are doing this as a guild showing punch needle and cross stitch. So if you are in the are of the Lake County Indiana Fair on Friday stop by.

Until next time

May you be blessed with stitches,

Karol

Another Happy Dance....

I could not believe how quickly my Earth Spirit stitched up:



Not my typical colors but it is kind of soothing.

So what do you ask did I start on next?????

I can't believe it but I started crocheting an afghan for a Christmas present. It is nothing short of HOT here and I am working on this. Call me crazy but I know it will be done before Christmas.

Until next time

May you be blessed with stitches,

Karol
