A Halloween Finish

I finished the stitching portion of this the other night, I think I will finish her into a pinkeep. She is from the CEC leaflet called Ladies' night. The chart is called Foundations. She was a fun stitch.






I purchased a needlepoint canvas called the "Funky Flamingo" that I will work on this weekend and will post pics later.

Have a great day.

I know its been a while!!

It has been awhile since I last posted, I have been busy helping to take care of my brothers affairs. I still can't believe he is gone.

We are having a triple birthday celebration this coming weekend. My family is so large, that we try to combine birthdays together. We all seem to really enjoy doing it that way, Can't believe that my daughter will be turning 26, wow, where has the time gone. We are also celebrating Joe's birthday, he is my daughter's SO. It is also Erica's b-day. She is my niece and loves to spend time with my daughter Nicole.

I do have stitching pictures to post, but that will have to wait until tomorrow. Thats all for now.

Happy Stitching!

He will be missed

It has been a bad couple of days. My older brother passed away suddenly on Saturday. We have been taking care of final resting plans and all that goes with a death. My brother was a great brother, uncle and godfather. He not only was loved by his family but had another "family" that included all his friends. My brother had more friends than I could ever have in two lifetimes. He had fishing buddies, golfing buddies, and all his "customers" at Trackside. He will be missed so much, if you can keep my family in your thoughts, it will be greatly appreciated.

Meet Miss Audrey (My new granddaughter)

This is my new granddaughter Audrey. My stepson Derek and his wife Darci are her proud parents. She is a doll.




Here is a quick cube that I made for Audrey

Smell My Feet

This was a fun stitch, it is from the JCS Halloween Edition 08. The designer is La D Da. I am not quite sure if I want to add the tassels like the project in the magazine. I did use havana linen, even though I prefer to stitch on lugana or jobelan. But I do like the color of this fabric.
