Sorry I've been MIA! I wasn't feeling too well last week. I caught some kind of virus that made me so tired. I'm finally getting over it, but still coughing a little. Now Matthew has gotten it. He was up in the middle of night coughing like crazy, the poor guy (and poor me because he kept me up)! LOL! :)
I did get some stitching done...
I worked on Shores a lot last week. I got the big whale stitched in block 11 and then I worked on the water around the whale.
I also got Simple Joys back out. It's coming along, slowly, but surely.
Amy finished her sampler last week. I saw it in person on Saturday - It looks great!
Speaking of Amy, while I was there we decided to do a round robin with
Karen and
Faye. Only instead of stitching it on one piece of fabric we are going to use individual pieces - sort of like our own
Fair and Square exchange. We are going to be using designs from The Prairie Schooler Patterns "
Friends" and "
More Friends." Amy, Faye and Karen chose 32 ct. Vintage Buttercream for their fabric and I chose 32 ct. Vintage Light Examplar for mine.
It should be a fun project and it will be nice to have a stitched piece from each of them.
Well, the kids are out of school now. Bradley's birthday is tomorrow - he's going to be 10! I just can't believe it. It seems like just yesterday I was holding him in my arms. We're planning on going to Florida soon. They are going to be spending time with my mom while I come back here and relax. I'm sure I won't know what to do with myself!! :) Write soon - hopefully with a finish!
