Adding a Few More Pictures of my Stitching

Here are a few more pictures of my stitching..

Today has been a rainy, cooler day...and the weather man says we may get some mix of rain and snow tomorrow night and Sunday morning....Hopefully, this will be our "Onion" snow...usually comes the end of April. I was so anxious for Spring and colorful flowers, I bought several and now am taking them out on the deck during the day and back into the breakfast room at night....good exercise....lol... Plan on planting and potting them the end of next week.

I had company this past weekend. My favorite cousins from St Louis. They left this morning and my Aunt and I drove to town (Lewisburg...about 20 miles). I dropped her off at Walmart and went on over to my second bout of exercise at Curves. It was more difficult to complete the three rounds today. I think because the pace was faster than last Thursday when I was trying to learn how to work the machines. But, I will go again on Wedneday...hopefully, it will be a little easier.

With company, I haven't stitched for a few days. Perhaps with company and trying to finish the online class on Building Your First Web Page, my mind was just too occupied....perhaps it is an artist's block. Sure hope it passes soon.

Today has been a cold,rainy and dank day here in my little valley. I did finish my online class in Building Your Own WebPage...and the highlight of the day was receiving my sampler back from the Brazilian Dimensional Embroidery Round Robin. The work done on this piece is wonderful. There are two areas that I will need to fill in and then I will frame this and enter it in our State Fair. I used black trigger fabric for this project and the colors of the Edmar threads are spectacular.

Tomorrow is my first work out at Curves....winter was long and cold and I fear I added a few unnecesary pounds....now I have to pay the price for that indulgance.
