Finally!!

I thought that I was going to go crazy.....I have been fighting with my blog and trying to post to it and haven't been able to, but I think that it is finally working. And look at that, it has only taken me ten days!! WooHoo!! LOL!

Well at least I have been busy. I finally finished the "Mermaids" for my DD's new underwater room. I took at picture of it before I sent it to be framed. I think that it turned out great!! I hope she likes it.

I was in a hurry when I took this picture so the colors didn't come out very well at all. But as soon as I get it back from being framed, I will take a much better picture of it.

This Saturday I went to a workshop sponsored by one of my local quilting shops where I bought my Bernina. They had a presenter there from Anita Goodesigns. It was a great day! Chris, the presenter, was very entertaining. And we were able to do four different projects. It was fantastic. I was so glad that I went. We were also able to purchase design sets at a discount and so I got some really cute ones. I can't wait to try them out!!

But that will have to wait for a little while as we are heading out for the NASCAR race in Dover, DE this weekend with a bunch of our friends. We always have such a good time and of course I take stitching with me to do as we are driving down and back!!

Oh yes, and I almost forgot to say that I have a new start. I am trying knots. Have you ever heard of Teresa Layman. My LNS had a trunk show of hers and I had seen it before, but decided maybe I would give it a try. And much to my surprise, I really like it!! It takes a little time and you have to be patient, but it is great!! I am working on a little bee project and really it isn't taking long at all. I don't have a picture just yet. But I will try to take one tomorrow. The light is not cooperating this evening.

Well, it is getting late and I would at least like to put needle to thread for 10 or 15 minutes before I go to bed tonight.

So until next time.......Happy Stitching!!

It is late, but just wanted to say Hi and that I will be back this weekend with things to show you! Until then.......

Happy Stitching,
