This Weeks Stitching and a Winner!

     What a fantastic week this has been! Other than one very cold day, we've had temperatures in the 60's and up to over 80.  We're kind of puttering and in today.  Too nice for the doors to not be open and all. Thank you Father!
     This week I've stitched on the gift that I'm stitching up for my nephew and his new bride, Nancy, come July.  Had to sneak,,,,,kinda/sorta this into the WIP's.  I didn't want to stick with the WIP's and wait too long to finish this up.  As it is though, it's moving right along and at nine hours, I have this much done.  Name of it is Wedding Row and as you can see, I'm using different colors.


Here's a picture of it from 123 Stitch, which is where I ordered it from.


This week I plan on working on the French Sampler.  Not much done of it today, but I'll see what it looks like next Sunday.

Now I have done some ordering.....Maybe I should say just resupplying my stash.....I just love it when I see some charts that I can't live without.  Yes I know this is the year of my WIP's.  I understand that.  I get it! The feeling of wanting them so badly and telling myself that I can't order them just kills me, but giving in to myself feels so darn good.  How can being so weak make my heart smile so big!  So here's a picture of what I ordered and it has all been delivered.  Now I tell myself that it's not fair to star any of these until I get my other things done.


The cherry trees are now in bloom here and their beautiful.  I snipped a couple of small branches the other day to help with the Valentine decoration.  Going to let them root and plant them later on.


And my Valentine's table.


Now before I bore you with more pictures, I'll let you go.  Not before though I let ya'll know that Laura of flowersofthewindblogspot.com won the gift certificate to the Lone Star Steakhouse! Send me your full name and address at MissLindaLee@ec.rr.com and I'll get that sent out to you.  You enjoy it young lady.
Now! Until next time, ya'll stay safe and warm.  Be well and last but not least. remember to "feel the colors".

  1. Your Valentine's table is beautiful and I love the new wedding stitch! We've got to support the designers by buying their charts so you're doing a great job keeping them in business!

    1. Thank you so much for stopping in and leaving a comment. I came close to not setting up my table this year, but then decided to go with it. It reminds me that spring will be here soon.

  6. Lovely stitching! I'm always rationalizing my stitch-related purchases, I just can't help myself, especially when some charts go out of print so quickly!:) We've also been having some wacky weather, but it's so nice to have the random, warm, sunny days in the midst of all the cold.
