HAPPY DANCING!

October Cottage / October Calendar Girl is finished!!!  I am Happy Dancing!

I'll try to get a better photo later.  I may add one more line of grass under my girl's feet.  But I'm happy with it.  I used colours that *I* like and that are colours found on a Savannah October's day.

Tomorrow,  I will begin work on Pumpkins 4-Sale!

October Girl: So darn close!

I should really be finished with October Girl.  I just can't take another stitch this night.  

It's storming, the lights have blinked on and off and on again. I'm afraid I'll screw something up and have to frog tomorrow.

Current Progress:

As much as I have loved working on this piece, I'm eager to start work on Pumpkins 4-Sale! 

My Mom is steadily improving, although she is not out of the woods yet.  This news keeps me going and I haven't had a meltdown of epic proportions.  I keep praying and asking the Good Lord to heal and comfort her.

Praying that everyone has a wonderful, blessed, and safe Labour Day weekend.  May your week bring you joy.

Happy Stitching!

Labour Day Weekend, Mom Update.

Can August really be at it's end? It has been a very long, complicated, terrifying month. I'm happy to see September.

My Mom's sinus / ear surgery went well.  She's in stable but critical condition.  Praying for her recovery. Thank all of you for your prayers and good thoughts. They are deeply appreciated.

I finally stitched last night.  October Girl is nearly done.  I hope to finish her before the stroke of midnight!

She's been a lot of fun to stitch.  Now, to do August for Morgan Rose and December for Michelle. The bond between Mothers and Daughters...

Have a Blessed Shabbat

I'll be praying the Rosary for my Mother at 11:30.  You can join me here, if you would like:

Come Pray the Rosary

May God Bless you all on the long Labour Day Weekend. Stay Safe. Happy Stitching.

October Calendar Girl: Update

I've been working on LHN's October Calendar Girl for a few hours. 

I like the few changes I made.  I shortened her hair because mine is short.  Trying to figure out a way to give her some strands of silver and a few curls.

I made her dress blue as I'm not a grey dress kinda gal.

I've gotten a bit of push-back on my colour changes and choices.  But I'm stitching this for me and I like it.

I don't mind constructive criticism -- but not outright complaints. 

I am beginning to think I MAY have this project completed by September 1st.  I hope so as I can't wait to begin Pumpkins 4-Sale!

HAPPY STITCHING!
