Thank the Lord…

for generous and thoughtful stitching friends! I was feeling a bit sorry for myself this morning as I had a sickness bug yesterday…but my day was made so much brighter and better when an envelope from Barb dropped through my letterbox this morning…

…inside was a gorgeous chart from Filigram called Mother Hens…Barb remembered my love of chickens, there was also a chicken button and a beautiful bookmark which has already made it’s way into my copy of Persuasion, aren’t they just perfect! Thank you so so much Barb I will treasure them!

I haven’t done too much stitching this week, I did finish a little teacher gift and put a few stitches in my BBD Prairie House, I also stitched on my S&S sampler on Wednesday for TSG SAL (progress pictures will follow). I have been knitting though I am 2 thirds through my 3rd scarf so am pleased with that..only a few more to do.

Well happy Saturday to you…off to make some lunch and then stitch as the kids are at my parents for the day!

Hugs & Stitches
