Hello Dear Friends:
Please I ask from my heart for you to Pray for Peace in Israel
Thank-you for all your Prayers thoughts and kind words on Michaels health, so far he is doing better, out of the hospital and hopefully healing properly.
I have been able to do a bit of stitching, I found this lovely kit at retreat and wanted to stitch it, I just have to stuff it, I will show a photo next post. It is a Shepherds Bush Needleworkers Roll, the kits was a partial I used an unknown fabric two over two and specialty threads, there were leftover threads, the scissors were in my stash.
I have a bunch of needle rolls I will have to show sometime, that I have made over the years.
Not a great photo so sorry, I will be stuffing it this evening
I Stitched a Christmas ornament and will construct it this evening, it is a A sweet design I used Fuzzy Stuff from Rainbow Gallery's threads for his beard,
I also used an unknown fabric and mixed threads to stitch him, he is a hoot, he is stitched on 32 count fabric two over two threads
I was able to get a day away for myself last month with the Potpourri Stitchers a group of amazing ladies from Minnesota Needlework Guild members, we went to Buttermilk Basin store, they sell fabrics wool threads and patterns for quilting and felt work, I love this store, so many other items that were not stitching related, it is an amazing store here in Minnesota, they also have a web site, many of their designs are Buttermilk Basin designs. I bought some wool for a Steamer Box top which I need to work on
I bought this a sweet design for winter of deer in snow, I plan on making this in the shape of a heart, it is beautiful as a heart finish, I bought the kit
Someone at retreat started a bookmark, I finished it by adding the stitches inside the border that was already stitched, I also added the beads and tear drop
I stitched this in April and finally constructed it this weekend, I stitched this on 28 count two over two threads with the called for threads, it is a Blue Ribbon design, I like Belindas designs, if you get a chance pop on over to her site

Well its been a roller coaster of a few months, I have lost 15 pounds and not the good way to lose it, I just hope it stays away, due to all the running back and forth to the hospital for Michael and his health
I have been watching a few YouTube videos, my favorite is the Country Stitchers, Northwoods Stitcher,
Helen D, Blue Ribbon Designs, Vonna Twisted Stitcher, Teresa Kogut, Kindred Stitcher and a few more, it is fun to see what other stitchers are up to.
Until Next Time
Hugs
Catherine💙💚❤️🧡
