I finished a cute model for Country Cottage Needleworks. Of course I can't show it but you CCN fans will love it. Next I'll start a model for Little House Needleworks and it looks to be another "winner". I really enjoy stitching for both these ladies; I'm a big fan of their designs.
I finished a little freebie from, I believe tantes zolder. I saw it stitched up and made into a little pillow finish on someone's blog. I really wish I'd written down the blog addy to link you to it. If anyone knows, feel free to send me the url.
I acquired the last of the needed Belle Soie for LHN's Elizabeth Hancock. I'm hoping to start it soon. What a beautiful design and beautiful silks!
There are some other wips that deserve some attention; hopefully I'll get to them soon.
I took in one of my samplers to the framer this morning. (LHN Virtue Sampler) I even have a place picked out where it will hang.
This was my first week without my walking buddy...although she was in town Wednesday so we "did" lunch. As much as I enjoy walking and how it makes me feel, I have an inner battle with myself just getting started every morning. I managed to walk 4 days (3 -4 1/2 milers and 1- 3 miler). I have to get accustomed to my "new normal". Finding another walking buddy would be nice too; I have my feelers out. In addition to the motivation, my buddy and I joke that we manage to talk out and solve the world's problems while walking together. If ONLY someone would take our advice! ;-)
Happy stitching!
