Another win? Yes - maybe I should buy a lottery ticket!! I found L'Atelier Perdu
Stitch Me 2013 on ebay - I won it for $20!! Woohoo last one went for over $50. I would still like either the
Snowflakes pattern or the
reindeer pattern but I am not holding my breath!! I finished the Blackbird's Designs Mystery Sampler - here is the last section
and here is the whole thing. I ended up taking the year off the 4th section, it was between the crows in the middle, I didn't like it so I added some of the little flower thingys. There were two sets of initials - didn't like those either so I didn't put them. I love it. So now it's on to Shakespeare Peddler pattern that I will be giving away when I am done. Should only be a few days so stay tuned if you want it.
Scott is away on business. After he was done working he went and saw his grandmother - unfortunately she had already eaten dinner or he probably would have taken her out.

On his way home he passed the corporate office for Longaberger - isn't that cool!!
I am home cleaning, doing grocery shopping and throwing away the treat our stray calico left in the yard
I actually saw her catch it - pretty impressive. Ugly little creature. My cat catches nothing - except some zzz's on my electric stitching blanket

The latest entry from Gram's autograph book is full of misspellings which I am not going to correct. Hope you enjoy..

Dear Mary Ellen
As the short years roll on
And these pages dim may be
just remember Wendell Culbertson
Your cousin -------- one of many.
Yours for constant victory!

On September 21, 1941 my Gram turned 11 - I'm surprised there no mention that it was her birthday! Pearl Harbor was bombed in December of 1941.
Hope you have a lovely weekend - thanks for stopping by!
Congratulations on getting the chart you wanted and your awesome finish! Those offices look great.
ReplyDeleteJamie, I love the BBD design. It makes me want to drop everything and stitch it. Yours is beautiful. What a great photo of Scott and his Grandma. He is lucky to have her still with him.I think your cat has the right idea!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the chart - I love your stitching. The autograph book is so cute. And the HQ for Logaberger - too funny!!
