Future WIP's

This week was a pretty slow stitching week for me. After I finished Purrrfect Partners I lost my stitching mojo! I made a small run to my LNS this week and picked up some more linen and a spool of the glow in dark Kreinik threads that is needed for Harvest Witch. I have been dying to know if the the threads do glow in the dark and they do! :) I can't wait to see Harvest Witch all finished in the dark now! LOL

Since I couldn't get interested in stitching this week I dug through my stash and kitted some patterns up. So far here is what I kitted up this week:

1. A Child's Prayer-Calico Crossroads
2. Fairy Roses-Mirabilia
3. Snowman & Friends-Kooler Design
4. Mine All Mine (Mac)-X's and Oh's
5. Summer's Magic-Dragon Dreams (SAL w/Renee)
6. Tour des Marques-The Silver Lining (I blame this one on you, Dani! LOL )

Becky K. asked me a few days ago what breeds of dogs I have. I have to admit I have been shy on saying that Gracie is a Pit Bull Terrier because I do not want the controversy on if they are good dogs or bad dogs. I will say I am a firm believer that dogs are just like humans, they are born good but due to bad circumstances can turn bad. I know Gracie will be a wonderful pet as all of us spoil her with love.

Girly is part Black Lab and part Rat Terrier. I like to call her my Miniature Lab. :) She looks just like a lab except she is only 13 inches from her shoulder to the floor. For a dog with short legs she can move pretty fast when you show her a Frisbee!

Have a great weekend!

My Stocking

Let me just say the weather has been completely freaky the past 2 days!! Yesterday we had tornado watches out in our area and by 4 AM we had ice and snow on the ground!

I went to Hobby Lobby this morning with the intentions of just picking up some fabric when I came across this treasure! There is a small story behind this certain book. I had seen in it December and was going to purchase it but when I went back to buy it, it was gone. Now I was really mad at myself for not picking it when I saw it before. So when I saw it today I did not hesitate, I snatched this baby up right away!


The reason I am so excited about this one is because the stocking in the middle will be the one I stitch for myself this year.:)
I forgot to post yesterday that we got a call from Dr. B's office about Mac's biospy. The results came back fine and now he think what he saw was just swelling of his ear canal/drum and no surgery will be needed. Whew!! We will still have a check up with him on February 18 to find out exactly what is going on. It does seem that Mac' ear is finally getting better with this 3 round of ear drops. I just hope the doctor will figure out what to do because I am really getting frustrated with this same problem every single year.
I am hoping on having time to stitch this evening. I have to take the kids to get new shoes after they get home from school and I am hoping I survive this trip! LOL
