Happy Hannukah Merry Christmas

 Hello my dear followers, thank-you from my heart for your encouraging comments on my health, I am feeling better and hope I will not have to take the meds for more then six months, that is the hope so far.

Well I have done some stitching, decorating a little finishing and hopefully some baking for Christmas.

I have a few photos which are not very good of some of the needle rolls I have stitched in the past, so sorry about the crappy photos, it was not a sunny day when I took the photos.

Someone asked and please forgive me I forgot who it was that they wanted to see the needle rolls, I did give some away which I really miss.

                       These are my two favorites they were I believe Shepherds Bush designs

            I did fully finish the bird, I am not sure of the designer, so sorry, I will have to look it up

I started a rolling pin design I found in Just Cross Stitch Magazine December 2023, it is called baked with Love, I was lucky to find a rolling pin at Marshall in Monticello Mn.

I was worried I would not fins stand for the pin, I was at Hobby Lobby and found a board that is going to work, It is a weird stand but turning it upside down it works as a rolling pin holder

Its time to get to decorating the home and finish up today, this year is going to be my Santa collection and Nutcrackers displays, i like to change it up each year, last year was the Campbells Soup displays

                                                       Have a wonderful and Blessed week

I Have Been Ill

 I am missing in action since last month, after taking care of Mike since June, I wore myself down, I did not eat properly drank energy drinks (I do not recommend them), way too much coffee and not enough sleep.

I have A-Fib due to this not eating right, I was getting up 3-5times a night to flush out Mikes bladder, I am glad I did but paid the price for it.

I am on the mend and will I promise post what I have been stitching on tomorrow, I have been reading a load of books which I enjoy and the sewing and stitching is getting back to normal.

I will send out thank-yous for your last comments this afternoon and evening.

Hugs

from my heart

Catherine
