Busy few weeks.....

Hi - how are you - remember me?  I've been so busy the past couple of weeks I feel like the world bas been passing me by!  I had cataract surgery (left eye) this past Thursday a.m.  It's amazing how BAD that eye was and how bad my right eye still is.  Long story, but I can already see better and hope that once I get new glasses in a week or so, that I will be able to see even better!   We aren't going to do anything on the right eye for awhile - we'll see how it goes.  It's actually worse, but as I said, long story that I'm sure no one is interested in hearing.

Yesterday we had a stitching gtg at The French Hens here in town.  I met several new friends and got to spend time with a lot of "old" friends too.  :-)  I wasn't able to stitch (still can't see well enough), but it was fun watching & chatting the day away.  Here are a few pictures.....

Myra & Chris from NC were here for the first time and also Beverly from Savannah and Karin from the Aiken/Augusta area joined us.  We missed some of the "regulars" who couldn't come for one reason or another & will be looking forward to seeing them here next time - likely the first Saturday in December.  First we have the "Stitching at the Beach" retreat in Myrtle Beach!  I'm happy to share that Tanya from "The Scarlett House" will be joining us!!   I've been following her blog for quilt awhile & can't wait to meet her and to see all of her new designs in person.   We still have some openings - join us if you can!!

Myra brought me a new friend who's decided to "nest" by my sewing machine.  Isn't she cute?  Very colorful huh?  Have you seen a bird called "California Dreamin" before?  ;-)  Thank you again Myra!

I haven't stitched in two weeks, but before that, I did manage to stitch up several small items & started on more.....

This is by Jardin Prive' and it's stitched over one with DMC.  Some of you might just see this again....  ;-)

And this Triquetra is by Jamie of White Willow Stitchery - thanks again Jamie!

It's stitched over one with DMC floss as well. 

There are a few other small things that I don't have pictures of - will share them later. 
Thank you for stopping by - have a great week ahead - happy stitching & sewing!
