It has been a while, I have been very busy, I did finish my Tersa Kogut Blue Santa into a standing Santa, with bells hanging from the stick horse, I stitched him on 32 count unknown fabric ( I get most of my fabric from stash reallocation at retreats) his face is so adorable, I plan on stitching more of Teresas Santas, the Green Coat Santa I want to stitch after the first of the year for next Christmas
I also finished the pin cushions from Just Another Button Company, they are thin cushions, I still like them I will use them as ornaments on one of my trees this Christmas.
I will still have to buy a red ribbon to add to the Candy cane and a hanging ribbon
I was gifted a new book from Teresa Kogut, I love the Biscornus in this book, I started stitching the Blue Flower Border, the flip side will be I Love Biscornu Flags
Stitched on 37 count one over two threads
I did do a little decorating for Fall, I do not celebrate Halloween but do like some of the fun designs people stitch, the little pumpkin boy is holding little blocks that say Harvest oh so cute in my eyes

Love this picture from Hobby Lobby
So sorry about the wrinkles, I did construct all three but only have one photo of the first one finished
The other two are on there way to my friends sisters
Well that all for now, I have been taking down drapes and valances cleaning them and wiping down walls, some think I am a clean freak that is true, I am not a fan of dirt or dust
Next week I will clean out the drawers and fridge
Please Pray for peace my friend Charlie Kirk was assonated, a very kind and gentle man, he never raised his voice or fought with anyone who had a differing of opinions then his
Rest In Peace My Friend

Great finishes, Catherine! And you displays are lovely!
The stitches and fall decorations are adorable. The Jolly pattern is so cute, and I have had my eye on those Santa’s since they are popping up everywhere. So many things to stitch:)
I was so sad about CK and just the general state of things, but I do know who holds the future.
That Santa is absolutely gorgeous! I really enjoyed seeing your fall decor. I never have really decorated for the seasons or any other occasion than Christmas. We simply don't have room in our apartment to store out of season decorations. Getting the wild hare to make the haunted house landscape means I now have something to put up for Halloween though.
God bless always.
I so love how your Blue Santa turned out, Catherine! And it was fun to see your autumn displays--really pretty pieces in each one. I wish I could get up my energy to do what you're doing with valances and curtains. I know they need to be done, but it seems overwhelming at times :) Wishing you a wonderful October! ♥
That’s such a touching message, Catherine. 💔 Your words show both care and sorrow — it’s clear your friend meant a lot to you. May Charlie rest in peace, and may you find comfort in remembering his kindness and gentle spirit. 🕊️
And your cleaning energy is admirable — keeping things fresh and tidy can be such a grounding way to work through emotions. Sending you peace and strength. 💛
