Another Finish And Closer To Spring And Lunch With Mom And Julie

Greetings to you all, I am so happy spring is almost here, I look forward to sitting outside with a latte and stitching and reading in the sun and of course the shade.

Thursday Mom and Julie brought over Chinese oh boy was it ever good, thank-you Mom and Julie, I was working for Karol from Allina while she was on vacation, I told my past Boss that I would help out when Karol goes on vacation, a little stitching money never hurts, I am retired but still like to help them out.

I have another finish it is the Scattered Seed Samplers From Tammy Black A Stitch In Time Pinkeep, I love this little pillow it is so sweet in my eyes, I did change out the ribbon finish, I just could not get it to look like Tammy's, I stuffed it with crushed walnut shell's, I did not have any sawdust to fill it.
I also put the little silver bird charm in the pillow (what do you think)

I am in love with this little pillow so sweet, the ribbon used is something I have never used before it is very interesting and snag a little if I am not careful.

I did this many years ago it is from an old magazine as soon as I find the magazine I will post the Designer.
I had wanted to post this yesterday  for Flash back Friday but as you can tell I am a little slow.


I opened the patio door in the kitchen and look what I found a spider a very small spider. So maybe spring is here finally.


I have been sucking up the Asian beetle like crazy at least 50 every morning, I hate these little things they stick and creep me out. Does anyone else have this problem? I would  have taken a picture but sucked them all up before this post.

I will be starting a new project this evening, it is Brenda Gervais's  I love this pattern I think it is so sweet. Paper Snowflakes



I have to go now we are getting ready for Mass, I run the library on Saturday evenings at Church.

Blessings
To You All

I think you did a great job finishing. Walnut shells always shift and distort on me and sawdust does too if I don't pack it so tight the seams are bursting. Like my new jeans. I found two spiders inside. I love warm weather, hate spiders.

That little pinkeep is so sweet, Catherine, and you did a wonderful job on the finishing, too! Love the bunnies! I'm not familiar with Asian beetles, but they don't sound pleasant. :) And I love your new project.

What a sweet little pinkeep. It's nice now we have some springlike weather. Luckily no beetles here.
