Hi everyone,
Hope you are having a wonderful Monday. I was until I went to get the mail and 5 wasp flew out and I got stung on the finger. It hurt so bad, and I have a feeling I am slightly allergic so I took a Benedryl. It feels better. I had no idea that they built a nest inside the box. Needless to say, there is no longer a nest. I hope the mail lady didn't get hurt.
Well onto other things. I finally "finished" my Blue Ribbon Design from last time into an ornament. I am pleased with the results.
In addition, I "finished" this little thing into a door hanger. I think it is cute.
I finished this biscornu this morning. It was from the Blueladie Designs yahoo group. It was from June. I made the pins by hot gluing the buttons to the pins. My son thought it was super cute. He is my biggest fan.
In addition, I just finished this freebie from the Little Stitcher. It was for the June challenge on the 123 Stitch! message board. I changed my mind and decided to do it as a companion piece to the biscornu. I need to get some fabric. so I can make it into a pillow.
I started on this. It is on 32ct Woodlawn by PTP and it is beautiful. However, I am going to wait until the kids go back to school and I get some reading glasses in order to continue. I need the quiet and my new progressives are too hard to use for needlework. But I felt good putting a few beginning stitches.
Lastly, I put some more stitches into this WIP. It was a from a free SAL that Novalee was doing last year. I already have the material to make a pillow. I will get this done. Sorry about the quality of the picture.
Thanks so much for looking and have a great week.

A Quaker Finish and a Patriotic Finish
Good Afternoon everyone,
I have such exciting news. I finally finished my Quaker by Wiehenburg Designs. I haven't done a project this big in a long time. Now to find the time to get it framed. For now it goes in the drawer with all the other finished project just waiting to get "finished".
I also finished this small chart into a biscornu, just in time for the 4th of July. It was from the May Blueladie Designs monthly newsletter. I altered it slightly but Cathryn didn't mind.
Here is a picture of my next big project. I will be making a series of 5 pictures of all our dogs, past and present. The first one will be of our golden Labrador Anabelle, she passed away last April. I will be stitching this on PTP 32ct Lugana in the color Woodlawn. I can't wait to get started.
Thanks again for looking and all the support, it really motivates me to finish projects especially the larger ones.
Have a great weekend,
Mary
