Good afternoon

well I have not posted in while. I have several finishes to post but I can't do that till after Christmas as they are gifts and I never know who will wonder buy my blog :o) Right now I have a cold so I feel yucky. I go to the doctor to today for a check up on the heart so I can ask her about taking some vitamins to help me. Well this is just a short post so that people don't think I gave up on this :o). Oh I made cookies the other day and had some help
Domino wanted to help Yes his head is covered with flour :o)

We put our tree up the other night and had help with this too :o)
I don't know if you can see Briar under the tree. Broadway is over on the side watching everything that is going on. Domino is sitting in front just not sure what is going on having this big tree in the house.

Christmas Stitch along part four :o)

HI
Well, I have not posted any thing on my Christmas Stitch along for a while but I finished another one. This was to be two separate charts but I put them together as one. I also had to make a few adjustments along the was as my counting got the better of me in places *sigh*. I also added so cookie buttons the picture. I just need to finish off the back and hang it up.

Christmas

Hello,
Well working on the house for Christmas. Which means my collection of Nutcrackers and Santa's. I was tell a friend about them on the phone. So I thought why not take pictures and post them:o)
This one that my husband got me a couple of years ago. He is the tallest one I have he about 3 foot tall.
This is a Wooden Santa, I have had him for about two years. Broadway loves to tip him over on top of the littler Cats in the house. Since Broadway is the only one who can knock it over :o) this guy is about two feet tall and solid wood :o)



Here is another group of Nutcracker.
I love all types as you can see.










Here is the other half of the group :0) The Santa in the picture is about four foot tall. And must see my pirate nutcracker I just love him :o)















I see I caught Magnus checking things out :o) Here is another nutcracker and Santa. I like this since he looks like he is coming out of a chimney.













This is my shelf of Nutcrackers

Believe or not but the two Santa's on the ends are both Nutcrackers. The little one there is for my Doctor for Christmas.










This Santa I did long time ago, he is a painted on muslin fabric after you sew him together. I hope to post a Stitch a long up date this weekend.

Have a good weekend every one

Christmas Stitch along part three :o)

OK, I really like this so far. I am glad that I am putting this together as one picture. I have not been stitching much since for some reason I have had bad headaches *sigh* I more then likely have another sinuses infection. Well, I bet most of us are getting ready for tomorrow. Well I got out of cooking this year my dear husband accepted dinner invitation to his brothers house. Which made me feel like I had to say OK *sigh* Well I am baking a sweet potato pie for the desert to take with us. I like this better then pumpkin pie. Well I hope every one has a Happy Thanksgiving.

Christmas Stitch along part two :o)

Here is my progress so far, I think it is coming out so cute. I so want to stitch right know but I need to go shopping :o) we need food in the house and all the other stuff :o) I am hoping that we will maybe go and see the new movie Twilight. Though I also want to see the new Bond movie too *sigh* I know I will only get to see one so which one to see. Well this is a just a short note so I better get ready to go :o)

To tuckered to help

Hi well today I thought I would put that darn plastic up on some windows today and with six fur children I had plenty of help. And as you can see they are all tuckered out from helping Mom. These three decided to run through the plastic and help with the taping. I live in a very old duplex so our front door leads to the second story balcony so I have to put plastic between the doors or who ever sits near it will have a nice draft blow on them all winter. I did mange to get the door and one window done before I had to quit just had to much four legged help :o). I took this picture about a half hour after I got the plastic cleaned up :o) they had tunnels and toys all through the plastic they where having so much fun and I just had to clean it up *sigh* I know what a mean Mommy. Just a side note this was a very heavy plastic that my husband gets from work not the stuff you can buy from K-mart or WalMart to cover the windows. That is why they had tunnels and such running through it. Well as you can see pour little Domino is pushed to the one end and Broadway pushed in between him and Brair. Well off to do some stitching. Hopeing to post a picture tomorrow of my progress on the Ginger Boy, but I might have to wait till this weekend.

Christmas Stitch along

I mentioned in another post that I am in a Christmas stitch along. Well, I did start the ginger bread boy last night again :o) I started it on dark chocolate fabric but did not like it, that is the fabric. So I went through my fabric stash and chose this one it is 34 ct cafe au lait. It was should be done on black which would make the colors vary vibrant. But I think the colors will look great on this creamy fabric. I am going to do both the boy and girl as one picture so I can hang it over my archway in my living room. All the charts in this stitch along are sooooooooo cute I will run out of time to stitch them all :o)

My Trick or Treat Fairy

I have had a couple friends ask me for a bigger picture. this the best I can seem to get with out it getting to blurry. There is better picture of this on my webshots.

Good Morning

Well I thought i would post a few pictures of frames I did and will have up on eBay soon :o). I enjoy reworking frames for all types of art forms.
these two are for Christmas or really or can be used for any winter pictures
Here are two I did for Halloween. The stitched pieces are from SamSarah I know you can't see the pictures to well. I hope to post many more things soon :o)

good evening all

well, I am just watching stuff we DVRed and thought I could post too :o) Briar is trying to help she is one if the six cats I have that help me do the every day things.




First we have Catti-Brie she is the oldest at 14,




then there is Magnus my 9 year old he is my love bug,









then there is Mystic who hides from every one but me she is very loving when she gets to know ya,






Now for Broadway he just turned 4 he has had a lot of health problems since we got him but he is my big boy a 18 ponder and very tall.







Then there is Brair my baby girl she now 2 and is a 16 ponder :o) but she is mommies baby,






our newest baby is 6 months old his name is Domino and he has no fear of the big guys at all. He keeps up with them but he is very tiny only 5 pounds and very petite I have a feeling he is going to be a little guy.
