Finally a Finish

I thought I would be able to link my picture from webshots to the blog in the post to show my latest finish. But I can't seem to get it to work. I am still trying. It is Littlehouse Needleworks Winter Whites. I used a piece of linen from my stash and converted the threads so that I could use dmc since I had those on hand. I really enjoyed working on this one. I really like how it turned out. Now I just need to find a mat/frame. I think I got the picture to work.

Fall/Halloween Exchange

One of the message boards I am a member of had a fall/halloween exchange. The lady I got likes witches. I have been stitching in the cutest little witch. I am done stitching and just finishing the back stitching. I love this pattern so much I am going to have to make one for myself. I can not show a picture right now because I am afraid she would see it on my blog. Once she has received it I will post a picture. I am going to go now and finish the back stitching so I can make it into a pillow tomorrow.

San Man Original Finish

Here is my Autumn finish I used DMC floss and a piece of fabric from my stash so I don't know the name. I just need to get a mat & frame to hang it up.

WIP Friends Come in All Flavors SAL

This is by SanMan Originals. The fabric is Rollercoaster by Sugar Maple Fabrics. The thread is by Silk Strands Sweet.

Has It Been That Long?

I have been so busy this summer that I haven't been able to blog. I need a few more hours in the day to get everything done. In May I was downsized from a company I had been with for 10 years. My dad has been going through chemo treatments for a blood disorder and has congestive heart failure and he has been in & out of the hospital twice this summer. That has take up most of my time. In August I started praying for a job. I applied for two and wanted at least 3 of the ones I heard about. But I decided to leave it up to God and prayed he would put me where he wanted me. When I turn things over to God it is like everything is perfect. He put me at a company that is so wonderful I LOVE going to work everyday. I thank Him everyday for this job. It is a dream come true for me. It is funny how you don't know what you need in your life to ask for it....but God does.

Last Monday my mother in law was diagnosed with breast cancer. Tomorrow we go to the hospital to see if it has spread and cut out the lump. She had a mammogram 5 months ago and it came back fine. She found the lump 2 weeks ago and here we are. My prayer is we caught it early & the doctor's will get it all out. So on that note I am adding a link to the STITCH PINK.

A Fall Finish

I have been stitching but I haven't been blogging! I just keep stitching from one project to the next. I didn't realize until tonight how long it had been since I had posted. I finished up one tonight. It is a SanMan Original design called Crow Missing letter. I have a black frame to put it in.

I will post more finishes tomorrow after I get home from visiting my dad in the hospital.

Good Things

I ordered the new Lizzie Kate chart Good Things from DownSunshineLane and found a piece of fabric (28 ct Sage Jobelan) in my stash that was a green color but depending on your lighting it looks different. In the kitchen it looks brown and in the bedroom it looks green. Anyway here is the picture I am going tommorrow to find a frame. I stitched it with dmc thread.
