Thank you all for the wonderful

birthday wishes.  

I am so lucky to have a talented brother

and am glad he will share the fruits of

 his labor with me!

 

I also wanted to share goodies from sweet 

Charlene.  Ball is celebrating its 100th

anniversary and she packed these goodies

in one there commemorative jars. 

I am in love with button scissor fob....

it is so petite and just the perfect size.

 

 

Hope y'all have a great stitching weekend!

 



"Dampy Sod"....

And then there were 9.....

Primitive Needle "Dampy Sod"
Stitched on 40ct. Purely Primitive w/
WDW and Sampler Threads

.....Crazy Challenge finishes that is.  

I have been stitching on and off for a
couple of months on this design and decided it
was time to finish it.   I loved this saying the
first time I saw it and like it even more now
that it is finished.  This was my first design
from Lisa but not my last. 

Now up on the q-snaps will be BBD "It's Berry Time".  I have been stitching on this one by and by also so hopefully I can finish it this week.

Six months into this challenge, I do have an
observation.  I was usually a one project girl so I
was a little nervous when I decided to do it.  It
would normally drive me crazy to have more
than one or two big WIP at a time. 

Boy have I changed! 

I love having so many great choices when I pick up my stitiching bag.  If I get tired of one, I just have to reach in for another.  Even better, I have finished some designs that have been languishing in my "To Do" pile for years.  In short, I think I have been more productive this year and hope to keep up this "rotation" going forward.  Even though I have 6 remaining in my bag, I am already looking ahead at my next 15!  

Unfortunately my "To Frame" pile has grown
but that is a problem I don't mind having!

As always, thanks for visiting and all of your
wonderful comments.  They do make me smile.
Happy stitching.....and stay cool!
