I received several lovely gifts from the ladies who came to the stitch-in Saturday & wanted to share them with you.... First, Linda NC brought "Easter in a Bag" for me - wasn't that sweet of her? Thank you again Linda for the wonderful Easter Treats! Tweet - tweet!! Yvonne, I just love this adorable bird - he makes me smile - he's so pretty! Thank you again for your thoughtfulness! :-) Kathy (who still looks so familiar to me!) made this lovely bracelet for me! Isn't it pretty? I do have it on right now - but took it off for the picture as I couldn't take it on my arm holding the camera with one hand - ask me how I know this....! Thank you again Kathy - it's wonderful & I appreciate it so much! Faye always brings me a goodie she's made (she truly spoils me!), but she tried to out-do herself this time. Look at this lovely piece - and the pins are in it ( similar to the ones you see in the pic by it, but those were for Nicole) - and ...

I had a fairly productive day with my sewing today! I joined the Sweetwater "Label Crew" a couple of weeks ago & asked them to send both the Dec. & Jan. projects.  I made the Dec. project today - a journal cover.  I love their iron on labels (aren't they cute?) and I thought this one was perfect with the "Etchings" fabric I decided to use for the squares.  The lining is from a line called "Inkwell" - how's that for a journal?  ;-) And I've need some new potholders for several months & couldn't find any I liked.  I used this Waverly fabric to cover my kitchen chair seats and I also have placemats out of it.  I decided to make my own potholders using the fabric after I ran across it while I was getting out Christmas decorations last month.  I finally got around to it today - I  made eight.  Yep, that's a lot, but it should do for awhile, don't you think?  I used Insul-Bright (which is heat...

Heaven Doth Ask Brenda Keyes/The Sampler Company Stitched over 1, 25 ct with DMC I made my goal & finished "Heaven Doth Ask" by the end of February - woohoo!!!  Needless to say, I LOVE the sampler & I'm THRILLED that it's finished!!  It may not look like much, but the 80,000++ stitches in that bottom section (not including the border) was something.  I thought I'd never get the sky filled in!  Did I say I'm happy that it's done?  :-)  :-)  :-)  I picked it back up on Jan. 21st (I think?) and started with the words "Weak though we are" and finished it right around midnight on Feb. 27th.  Not too bad considering I can't stitch 10 hours a day! ;-)  The pic below was taken after I'd started stitched the first line of words - look at how much of the border was stitched then (not much!).  ;-)  I hope to have another UFO finish to show you by the end of April - fingers crossed!  I do have some o...

I don't know if you notice the "Santa Sack Swap" in the side bar, but that bag is the one that Carol made for me & I carried it as a purse from Thanksgiving until a couple of days after Christmas and I loved it.  And I had quite a few nice comments on it as well.  So, I decided to make a few more similar to it.... the pattern is by Stephanie of Loft Creations.  I made my own version of it by cutting 2.5" squares for the top section, and have plans to make at least 2 more - both different than the original or this one.  :-)  And a bit closer (don't look too closely - it's NOT perfect!)......  Anyway, the fabric is the new Moda "Chemistry" (from a charm pack that my dear friend Jeanne sent me at Christmas) and Moda "L'Amour" from a year or two ago that I had in my massive fabric stash.   I think they blend well together.  I love red/brown together & the pink thrown in doesn't hurt it any (it's not baby pink! lo...

Title : Vibram Fivefingers KSO EVO W, Women's Fitness, Grey (Grey/Pink), 6-6.5 UK (37 EU) ASIN : B00DYXNW8C Description : MINIMALIST RUNNING / BAREFOOT RUNNING The typical human foot is an anatomical masterpiece of evolution with 26 bones, 33 joints, 20 muscles, and hundreds of sensory receptors, tendons and ligaments. To keep our feet healthy, like the rest of our bodies, they need to be stimulated and exercised regularly. Many experts believe the shoes we wear not only cast the foot in a protective form, but can also weaken our foot and leg muscles, leaving them underdeveloped and more susceptible to injury. And while there are many occasions where traditional footwear is essential for protection, safety, and security, it is equally important to stimulate and exercise our feet in a more natural state on a regular basis.

Hi & Happy Wednesday!  Just thought I'd post a quick update on my little bit of stitching I've been doing this month.  Actually, it feels like quite a bit of stitching to me, but it doesn't look like a lot of progress.  I guess it is though.... it's hard to "see" it sometimes when you're doing it yourself and you're not "finishing" anything.  First up though, is a narrow scarf I crocheted almost 2 weeks ago.  Nicole came up and was trying to teach me how to knit (that's HARD!) but I ended up with one of her crochet hooks & made her a dishcloth, then that night & the next I made this scarf.  Yes, it's PINK - HOT pink, not pastel pink... there is a MAJOR difference! ;-)  And this is where I was last time I posted a pic of Drawn Thread's Open Heart.... And this is my progress as of last Thursday night (the 20th).....  not a huge amount, but it's better than nothing, right?  It's so pretty, but I have t...
