A Drizzly Saturday

     A drizzly Saturday morning here, and it's the perfect kind of day to stay inside and get some cross stitch going.  I was up at five this morning.  Had my cup of coffee and have a couple of loads of laundry done.  Time to relax now.

     I have a brand new follower! Thank you so much for joining in here Sally.  I hope to get to know you.  Wondering if you have a blog of your own, so I can stop in and say, "Howdy".  Please stop in again soon and thank you for the comment.

     Finished my "Mares Eat Oats" this morning and I love it.  Here's the completed piece. I enjoyed stitching it, and even though I used pink hi liter pen as I went along, it is still very clear to see and all.  If someone would like the pattern, drop me a line at MissLindaLee@ec.rr.com.  Leave your full name and address and I'll get it in the mail.  In the subject line of the email, put Mares please.

I had a good week this week! By that, I mean that I didn't cave! No new charts ordered and as I've heard some say, down here in the south.  "Hallelujah and pass the bread"! LOL I did order two skeins of yarn for another scarf and after seeing one piece in the 52 week SAL that was being worked up with a beautiful green variegated floss, I ordered the green floss for myself.  Both items will be here today, so next post, I'll post a couple of pictures of them.  I doubt that I'll be starting the SAL anytime soon, but I'm making sure that I get the new pattern each week.  Stop on over and take a look at some of them! Beautiful! Here's the address of the site.  https://peppermintpurple.co.uk/52-week-sal/

I also got a lot of stitching done which always makes me happy and the purple variegated scarf is nearly complete as well.  I mentioned on a previous post, that these scarves will be for Christmas gifts.  The pattern I'm using is so easy and each scarf works up quickly.  If anyone here knits, and would like the pattern, please let me know, and I'll post it here.

 Bill and I are in a book club at our local library and right now, we're all reading "The Orphan Train" written by Christina Baker Kline. It's about the relationship of seventeen year old Molly and a ninety one year old lady.  How their lives change so much from knowing each other.  It's one of those books that are easy to read and hard to put down.

So once again, here is what I'll be starting on today.  Need to zigzag around the edges first and then I'm off, as I already have it kitted up.  Lots of colors in this one.  I'm going to enjoy it I think.

   Well, I must let y'all go once again.  I thank all of you that has stopped in from time to time and left comments.  I'm making friends here and meeting people and I enjoy that.  Y'all take care.  Stay well and warm.  Love each and every one of you, and until next time, don't forget to "feel the colors".
