July seemed to drag on and on. I'm glad it's over. August means that school is starting and Fall comes closer.
It's a bittersweet time. I lost my beloved maternal grandparents (they adopted me when I was a wee lass) on the 3rd (1994) and 10th (1992) -- this is a difficult seven days.
However, Happy Husband and youngest daughter were born on the 27th and 29th.
I cope. Usually.
Happy Husband brought this sweet little stitching buddy home to me in a new coffee mug!
Isn't he adorable? I'm calling him Buddy. Very original, dontcha think?
October Cottage:
Using my own colourway. Mostly ThreadworX and a few flosses from Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe
I am so enjoying this project. I think I'll also stitch up August and December for my daughters birthdays.
I had forgotten how much stitching comforts me... how it relaxes me. It's almost like the feeling of peace and contentment I have when I hold my Rosary and pray.
I am so grateful to the Good Lord for giving me the patience and ability to stitch again. I am so blessed.
Happy Stitching, Ya'll!
Terri
