No She Didn't


Yes she did.  Merry Christmas to me.  I bought this canvas from The Needle Works here in Austin.   They are having a trunk show of Painted Pony Needlepoint Design canvases.  It's called Let the Earth Be Glad.  I took it to Amy's and she gave me a couple of stitch ideas.

Missing Memphis Already


Once again we had the best time in Memphis.  Eating, stitching and visiting with dear friends there.  FABULOUS!  I took the White Farm by Diane Ulmer Pedersen from Painted Pony Needlepoint Designs.  I was ready for Amy to give me the stitches for the rest of the piece.

The Village of Hawk Run Hollow


Time for some reading, writing and arithmetic.   I am finally getting around to stitching the school.  I had started on it and boogered it up real good.  It took me some time to work up the energy to tear out all the mess.   I am headed towards the finish line!

Going to Amy's


We are headed to Amy's soon for a Rent Amy Day.  Memphis is a great town and the ladies at Amy's Golden Strand are the best.   We are going to spend two whole days with them!  I am taking the White Farm by Diane Ulmer Pedersen from Painted Pony.  I took it the last time we went and am ready for my stitch suggestions for the rest of this gorgeous piece. 




I would also like to take this cute Welcome Sampler from Kelly Clark if I can find it.  I am still unpacking from moving back in my house.  Keep your fingers crossed!
