A Beautiful Day !!


Finally, I think warm weather is here for a while. Today was beautiful !! The sun was shining with not a cloud in site. I sure hope it lasts.

We had an appointment with the Cardiologist today, they have scheduled him for a Nuclear Stress Test on Friday and Monday. And he had labs drawn today.  Rich actually had a fairly good day today. He was a little weak but over all ok. Trips from home do tire him out though.

I have a little stitching to show you today. One is a small one of Joan Elliott's, my aunt found the chart in a consignment shop along with two others. There was no threads or fabric, just a chart so I had to pick my own colors. All the chart listed was a color name. I am pleased with the results.


The next one is a small one by Ink Circles. I used my own color combination and like the results. I did the outlines in 762 instead of the black that is usual. I think I will make a small pillow or a small bag for my iPad. I haven't decided yet.


This last one is a freebie Hardanger piece from Nordic Needle. I was a good girl and used fabric and thread from my stash. I think I will send it to my sister as a little "thinking of you" gift.



Well I think that is all for today. So enjoy the lovely weather and have a wonderful day !!

Thanks Deb, she is doing laundry. The saying is "when I said "I do" I didn't mean laundry ! ". I thought it was cute !!

Gorgeous stitching Dusty! I think the little Ink Circles piece looks better for not having the stark black outlines

Thanks for the comment on my blog, you are a "no reply" person so here I am!

I love the Ink Circles design you stitched, the colours are so unusual, like pansies or violets.

Glad to hear you are joining with the the JE SAL too.
