Some Stitching and News

                                   Greetings to all my followers new and my faithful followers


It has been a trying summer so far, Mike had three stents put in this past Wednesday, he had a mild heart attack on Memorial Day weekend, thank-you for all your prayers and well wish's, thank-you from our hearts.

Many outdoor things were up to me which I will not complain about, Mike never lets me mow the lawn and this in one thing I am able to do for him and enjoy.


I have had time to stitch in-between sewing and doing laundry for Church, I am also doing Eucharistic Adoration at least four times a month.


So this is a class project that Stitchville USA did by Zoom in 2020, however I do not have a web camara and cannot do Zoom, I was able to figure it out on my own.



                                                          I am really enjoying this design


This is the ruler done on silk gauge
(not sure why it is looking bumpy in the photo)

 

I bought some wood items from a very sweet man in the Ukraine, some of the money he raises from selling these items go to help fight for their freedoms that are being taken from them by Russia.
He is on Etsy WonderlandUkraine is his site, he also has cross stitch designs for sale and a few other items, please stop by and visit his site.
                                       This is a needle minder, it is so well made and beautiful





This is the scissor case, I so love this item, it is beautiful


The little mushroom in the case will have beads added to it and made into a scissor fob
                                                                 His work is amazing 


                       This is the beaded wood piece I did last month, I am thinking I will make                                                                                      this into an ornament for my tree



     This is an ornamental bird house, and a woodpecker is trying to make it his/her home, so cute, he                                                      is pecking away at making the hole larger



The temps here have been in the upper 80s and low to mid 90s with very little humidity which makes it easy to sit outdoors, I have to stay out of the sun due to skin cancer on my hand, I enjoy the shade as       much as the sun.
I hope you all are having great weather and getting loads of stitching done, until next time.

Let The People Choose Over At Serendipitousstitching


Found these on Pinterest, Jo at https://serendipitousstitching.blogspot.com is hosting the July Let The People Choose, the theme is cats, check it out on her site.


I do not have stitched cat designs but wanted to share these photos, the below photo is of Blondie The cat, she is a sweet baby who loves to lay on my chest and neck.



                                                                  This one is too funny.



                                       This cracks me up Blondie likes to sit on my keyboard.



 

                                                     Have a safe and wonderful fourth of July
