Finished in 2006...just framed!

This was finished in 2006, I didn't know how I wanted it framed, so I put it away, till last week when I went to Michaels, and I saw a Witches Hat, picked up some feathers, all I had to do was paint it black and glue on the feathers. Black Hat Society is from Sue Hillis. Next I want to get finish 'My Other Car is a Broom' by Lizzie Kate, that one will be framed on a broom! Halloween is coming and I just love it, my favorite are the Witches! 

Dress up day at Grandma's here are 2 out of 3 of her favorite Witches!

Miranda-One of my favorite Witches, it was dress up day at Grandma's

All 3 girls...Miranda, Isabella and Josephina

Next up is Andrea's wedding shower! Set for August 21st! I think I have everything ready! We will find out. I still need shoes for the wedding, I have  a dark blue dress so I guess I will go with silver, since it's the end of September. Time is running fast!

On The Stitching Front!

I started a new project a SAL from Kincavel Krosses, it's called 'Rules for Life' I am stitching it with Black Opal floss from Dinky Dyes, I love the color! 

My Frist Quilt and Vacation

My very First Quilt!

My girlfriend Dorothy helped me make it, it came from a kit and I just added a border around it! 

My First Quilt

I enjoyed making this, and I am going to make them for Andrea to give to the girls for the wedding, but of course I will use the wedding colors!

Change purse, iPod holder, cell phone holder or more.

Me at Casa De Loco

I had a wonderful time on vacation, I went to to Camdenton, MO in the 'Lake of The Ozarks'! Besides

Dorothy teaching me to Quilt, and by the way she did like the 'Quit Cabinet' that I made for her. We went to 'Casa De Loco' Winery for lunch, Casa de Loco has been nominated to the National Register of Historic Sites, and after you’ve read all about how the property went from an exclusive fishing resort to the “house of the crazy”, you’ll see why!  Some of the caves have tables and chairs where you can enjoy a bottle of wine and the view! They were very busy and short of help that day, and very hot! We did do some wine tasting, and I brought some home, very strange names on the wine! Those are the two that I brought home with the glass!

The wine was very good!

This is Dorothy and me, the strange look on my face I was standing near the edge, I don't like heights!

On the Stitching front!

 I am working on the wedding sampler for Andrea, I don't think I will get it done by the shower, but there is still Christmas coming up that I can give it to her!

Wedding Sampler

I the inside of the flower is filled with beads, and a lot of backstitching!

This is what it will look like when I get it finished, I am still thinking about putting the hearts around it!

Laugh with your eyes

Hug with your soul

And smile with your heart
