WOW! It's August! Can you believe it? Seems like only yesterday that it was January. :-o

I have finished July's SanMan Originals SAL:



I just love this design of Sandy's. It turned out so pretty. I am also working on a chart I designed for my daughter (youngest). It WAS one of her most favorite sayings. She'll get a chuckle out of it. (I'm in my Own World - See below in another post).

Well, sorry to be short, but I have nothing else right now and I did want to post this before the next one starts. Have a good Saturday!

Happy Monday All!

This is a picture of my 'new' furbaby. He is a puppy out of the litter that my Morgan (RIP) picture posted previously, had. He is so sweet and gentle. :D

His name is 'Stache'... short for Mustache, because he has a little white line on his chin (also long horizontally on his chest).
I hope you are all having a good day.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi all,
I found an old chart I created from one of my daughter's T-shirts that she loved. I finished it and am going to try to stitch it for her... I'm sure it will get a hoot of appreciation ... here is a pic:

This one makes me smile just looking at it.

I've really been busily designing lately. The 12 days of Christmas ornaments are being released on my Blueladie Designs website. I'm also working on next year's charts and a Mystery Sampler as well. I am excited about all of them.

Thanks for stopping by!

I just recently finished my Merry Month of May SAL by San Man Originals. :)

It's a stormy, rainy couple of days here in Kentucky. I haven't been feeling well for the past few days and finally figured out that it's my allergies. I just have to lay down when that happens and I am so very glad to be retired so I can do that when I want to.

Life is so fragile. A friend of ours was killed by a semi crossing the yellow line and hit him head on (the driver was drunk). He was on his way home from work to his wife and two children. Hug those close to you.

It is 3:18 a.m. I have been working on and completed designing two Christmas ornaments for the 2009 season for my group Kentucky Kross Stitchers. I am borrowing from another group whose designer I greatly admire (borrowing from her fun things to do, not her designs!) and am going to try to do 12 days of Christmas with an orny for each day. What do you think? I hope it will be fun.

I've been stitching today on my Prairie Schooler Christmas Village and it must have put me in the Christmas mood. That and receiving the latest issue of "Just Cross Stitch". I get so excited so easily :D
I'm such a child!!!

I've added a link to my cross stitch sales bargains to your right. ;) I've done some 'spring cleaning' and am starting to try to 'share' some items I know I will never use. Hope you will find some fun things that will be a bargain for you.

Well, here is a picture of the Little House Needleworks "Home of a Needleworker (too)" that I am currently working on:

I am really enjoying it and can't wait to frame it and hang it on my wall, because that's what our house is... "Home of a Needleworker."

:)

Thanks for stopping by.
