And Now, Back To Our Regularly Scheduled Programming!

Hi everyone! March 1st already, hard to believe. Due to technical difficulties, I couldn't post at all for the last couple weeks. Things were a mess but it's now all straightened out. I was WIP parading but since the last two WIPs are ornaments, I'll call the parade done. I did count and I now have 31 WIPs. I did finish 1 and I'm nearly done with another. I have progress to show, my Secret Stitching Sweetheart item, and the finish/near finish.

I just want to say Welcome to the new followers through Bloglovin' and a special Welcome to Colleen who lives here in Arizona. Hope you all enjoy my blathering about stitching and life.

So first up is the blog hop that Jo sponsored for Valentines Day..
Love, a freebie by the Stitcherhood, made into a pin pillow with a couple red topped pins stuck into it. I found the picture at a new to me blogger whose name escapes me. I should've looked up the name. I think I added it to my blog roll there on the right. If not, I'll add it later. A lot of people commented on the presentation, that was nice. I see whoever my Stitching Sweetheart hasn't come by to claim her picture of the two quilted hearts.

Here is my finish of a bday SAL start..
Merry Mouse by WTN & T/Brenda Gervais. Too cute! I like the use of WDW Tomato for
the red. I'm not sure what the scrap of fabric I used but I went 2 over 2. I left off a few
snowflakes on the left also.

My near finish is this bday SAL start..
This is Snow Bird not Snow Day, as I think I put it on a previous post, freebie by LK.
It is looking great on black linen. I sat up pretty late last night stitching the house.

Now my progress on a few things..
The Hannah Goose Tombstone stitch. I think it's called something else though. I've since
stitched in the two geese, the beginnings of the angel in the middle. I'm waiting on
a skein of another color to add an outline to the geese but for now I'll
keep plugging along with the black stitching.

Frosty Forest by CCN..
I'm working on that bottom right square putting in the front of the house. I want
this finished this year! Wish me luck, haha.

I am in the last stages of getting my exchange ready. I found a wooden box at 
Hob Lob to mount the main piece on. I just have to paint it. I'm glad I have until the 27th of
this month to box everything up and send. I am working 6 days a week so I'm catching
a couple hours in the evening to stitch and that's in competition with all the 
normal stuff I have to do anyway! But I'm making it work!

Alright, Blogger is harassing me so I'll finish here. I'm glad to be back again.
The problems have kept me from commenting on blogs too but I don't want to use up my phone's 
data as it slows everything down.

Take care and Happy Stitching!
