Greetings my dear friends, August was a very busy month, lots of VA appointments for Mike reevaluation of benefits, we are still in the dark as to weather he will have a reduction or addition of funds.
The first week I went to the Guild Retreat had a ball the first day, I took two class’s, one a Kumohimo class and a felting class finished both which I will share in my next post.
I was so lucky to have found a bag a big bag of Gentle Arts threads, now I do not usually buy specialty threads unless I have too now I have almost all the colors. I asked if anyone was interested in the bag no one in the reallocation room was I was the lucky girl. So sorry babout the Sid way photos they would not turn.
I also was able to get four books A cross stitch Christmas, Seasonal Sensations, Seasons Of Memories,
Heart Of the Holidays and A Season To Remember, I love these books.
Stitching update:
I did finish a Pamela Kellogg design Kitty and Me designs, (so sorry about the wrinkles) I love her cats, however I am not a fan of Krienik threads which there were four used.
I am going to have Michael’s frame him for me
I was able to fully finish a Christmas ornament I stitched a while back, I love Santas
I made myself a weight for a frame, sometimes I like to use a tv tray and lay a large stitching frame on the table and use a weight at the top to hold the hoop or frame, weighs about seven pounds
Time to start dinner and relax a little then down to my sewing room for mending and sewing, have an amazing week and wish and pray for Peace around the world
Catherine
