My Bee Pillow Is Finished

 Greetings top all my lovely followers, thank-you for your kind comments.

I was able to get the pillow constructed and filled, I love the look, I love bees am not afraid of them and welcome them into my yard but not on me.

This is a lovely Jardin Prive design.

I started working on my Patrick's Woods, I hope to have it finished by Sunday and then work on the accessories, I did change the colonial knots to French knots, I am not a fan of either but like the French knot better

I was so busy with getting things sewn and beaded for the Church Festival store, which was a success, it was on Sunday with a chicken dinner brats' dogs and hamburgers, I was the chicken girl and worked with three amazing people filling orders.

Mike is doing a little better and we hope he is back on track with his health, after the injection on his back one more time, we hope this helps give him relief it did for a short time, nest is surgery,

Have an amazing week of stitching sewing beading and any other craft you do.

Some Stitching Finally

 I stitched on my Jardin Prive square pillow now to construct it, hopefully to finish today.

I really like how fresh and pretty this looks on white, not being a person who like to stitched on white I am hooked

This is my ORT jar, there once was a candle in this jar, I liked it so much I cleaned it out after candle was spent.

This is my favorite way to keep threads with a kitted-up design, I love the rings to hold the threads, this                                                   was sent in an exchange from Kim in Iowa

           This one is an exchange I did back in 2014, Michelle from United Kingdom sent this to me

Today is laundry day and cleaning bathrooms, I hope to be stitching in the afternoon and some beading crystal balls for our Church Festival this coming Sunday, we have a table that sells handmade items I will be adding some stitched items and hand towels.

I will also be working on a table cover for funerals, that will be the table holding the Urns with ashes.

Have a wonderful day it will be a little cooler this week but not too bad, 70s is cool for me.

Gods Blessings

I Have Been Busy

 Hello everyone: I am sad to say that it has been a long two months, many things going on and loads of sewing and orders for beaded crystal balls.

I am working on basket donations and beaded crystal balls for our Church Festival, I have done some stitching.

                                                                      First Up

   I completed the stitching for the class Stitchville USA Spring Fling  had via Zoom did back in 2020

                                    1787 Sampler Smalls and an Ort Jar by Erica Michaels

                   They really are pretty when constructed which I will be working on this weekend

                                                            I really like the ORTS Jar

Nest is a freebie I got from the stash reallocation in 2019 at Needlework Guild Retreat

I will be having this framed and give to a friend for Christmas

I do not work on 14 count but felt this fit the design 

This is a design I bought on the net it is a PDF this is called a square of Bee's so I cannot show you a full photo of the pattern

This is a Design from Natalie CICHON Jardin Prive

I will stitch the sides this weekend hopefully

I will be starting a design Patrick's Woods A Pennsylvania Pincushion Rollup

I have had this pattern for a few years again another one from stash reallocation at needlework Guild Retreat

I like the brown fabric which was in my stash cabinet for a few years, the count is what I need, and I have some of the threads, I am substituting some colors

As many of you know Mike has some health issues, we are working on getting him surgery for his back lined up and now nurse's want to strike which will put his surgery off, please Pray he has less pain until his surgery, he is hurting so much.

As many of you know I have not commented on your blogs, it is not because I do not want to its just that Google ask for me to sign in and then will not let me sign in, not sure what is happening. 

I read all blogs and comment when google will let me.

Have a wonderful week, soon the snow will be flying here in Minnesota, maybe it's time to move south

God's Blessing's to you all

Catherine
