I'm still plugging away on LHN Family Sampler. I have most of most of the bands finished except for a few little touch-ups (one more band to go). Then I have most of the border to tackle. I'm enjoying this project but will be glad to finish and move onto something else.
I felt the need to have a finish AND was in a patriotic stitching mood so I stitched up this little beauty (a freebie at the Janlynne website) designed by Sandra Cozzolino:
A quick little mom brag....DS received his AP scores this past week and scored 5's on both of them. Yay, T!
Also, our baby barnswallows reached a milestone this week; they've taken flight! They still return to the nest in the evenings and mama and papa are still feeding them.
Tomorrow I'm meeting with some stitchy friends for a little get-together. For some reason, the food always has a theme. This time the theme is the beach. I'm bringing a watermelon carved like a shark (as seen on Pinterest) and filled with watermelon and gummy fish. I also had the idea of taking some goldfish crackers, serving them from a plain fishbowl. I thought it was a brilliant and easy plan. You'd think it would be easy to find a plain old fishbowl in the pet dept. of Wally's World but noooooooooo. Hopefully I'll find one somewhere else without too much trouble.
I hope everyone has a fantastic week!
