Wooo Hoooo... I've got eight entire days off... now whatever shall I do with myself! ;-) My plans are to do absolutely nothing but stitch and watch movies, read, blog, catch up with my emails and relax... And today was an excellent start... when I wasn't wandering about the house in a daze, still not daring to believe I don't have to work this week, I stitched a wee bit and plundered through all my stash wondering what to stitch next... ;-) piddled about on the computer, I had loads of photos to scan and it took forever... and I watched or rather listened to The Academy Awards whilst scanning... I must admit it was glorious doing nothing... ;-)
New Snow is coming along nicely... not as much progress as I would like, but I'm getting there. We were busy the last two days at work so I didn't get to stich as much as I would have liked and on days I'm working I do not have time to stitch in the evenings... so today was the only real time I've had to stitch... I wonder if I should dare say I may even finish it this week... lol I've got to stitch my JCS ornament for this month... Yes, I know I've only got three days left, so tomorrow I'll be starting on The Prairie Schooler's Winter Ornament from the JCS Ornament Issue 2006... And I also want to join in on The Chocolate Shoppe SAL at the LHN and CCN stitching group... The Stash Faery surprised me with the chart, a fat quarter of Vintage Country Mocha Cashel Linen and the threads on Friday... so, all I have to do is start... ;-)
Little House Needleworks...
Ye Olde Chocolate Shoppe
And I leave you with a piccy of New Snow by Glendon Place... A lot of you have raved about the fabric... and it is gorgeous... I'm stitching it on the recommended fabric which is Jazz Cashel Linen by Picture This Plus... the scans really don't do it justice... :-)
Thank you all for stopping by... your kind thoughts and comments are sparkling rays of sunshine in my days... :-)
Until new time... Love in stitches...
I am thankful for precious moments, the stash faery and blessed days off...

ReplyDeleteNew snow is looking so pretty, the fabric is perfect for it. I love the Chocolate Shoppe, that will be fun to do. I hadn't seen that one of theirs before, but a couple of the others are on my wish list. I want to do both Dog House and Kitty Cottage samplers as a set.
