I got it framed!

This is my fished and framed UFO from EMS it was a freebie that I started last year. It's a gift for a friend, who loves Daisies! I have a few more UFO's to finish, but they are big projects! So I think after Christmas, I am going to pulling one out and try to finish it! This is the side view, I used a artist oil canvas, to frame this, put fabric on the back and sides, and ribbon around it! I am leaving for The Lake of the Ozarks, Camdenton, MO on Sunday, I have a lot to get done, I need to pack, get some stitching together, a couple of books, enough to keep me busy on the 7 hour train ride! Make sure the house is clean for my dad, that him, Andrea and Miranda has enough to eat, while I'm gone. It's going to be another 2 week vacation! Joe and I went to the Ozarks twice a year to visit our friends, now I am going by myself, we have known these friends for 40 years, a very dear friendship!

It's a No Sew Cube!

I have it finished now, I don't think I will have time to get another Halloween stitched before I leave on my trip to the Lake of The Ozarks, when I get home I have a few Ornaments that need to get finished, and sent out. A few Christmas gifts need to framed and sent out also. I thought doing some of this would help me get through Christmas this year, so far, it's not working. I still haven't figured out what happen to my white floss why it looks like two different shades. This is the side view. This is from Vee. I worked outside on Saturday, putting away the chairs and covering the tables, taking out the plants, now I know why Joe and I both did it, a lot of work for one person to do.

A Halloween Finish

Halloween finish, it's from Vee, now I need to figure out how I want to finish this, I did want to put it on a sweatshirt for Miranda, but by next year, it just won't fit her. So I am thinking maybe a No Sew Cube. Don't know if I will get another Halloween done, before that spooky day. I have to get a few Christmas Ornaments done, before the 15th of November.
My Girls
I babysat Isabella and Josephina over the weekend, they are growing so fast, hard to believe that Josephina is 4 months old already.Isabella had to show me her pets that she had,I knew they had Rose (the Dog) but she showed me a couple of more. She told me that there are dragon flies, and pretty birds, didn't see any birds, but I did find the Dragon Flies. I found the frogs, you need to look close,( click on the picture to make it bigger), there are 2 of them, in the pond. These geese were in his back yard, until Isabella went out side to chase them away! She loves chasing them back into the Lake! Then we played, it was a beautiful day.
Isabella and Rose, watching the 2 dogs next door. It was very peaceful even in the evening!
