Good morning, my friends. It was a busy day from start to finish yesterday. It got so late in the day, I barely did anything in the sewing room. Oh well. Plenty of other things were accomplished. There’s still a lot to do today, but it’ll be less hectic than yesterday.
Before we needed to take off for the grocery store, I was able to stitch Tiny Treasure #66. This one has stem stitch, straight stitch, and satin stitch.

Good morning, my friends. By the time you read this, it'll be way past morning. I wrote my post and then never published it. Sorry for the late posting. That's what happens when I get too busy. It's Day 2 of my busy week. Yesterday gave me a taste. Today will be even busier. We must do some grocery shopping, unfortunately. We'll get an early start and try to be home early because there's much to do at home as well.
Before I even did my slow-stitching yesterday, I hoed the garden. It was a ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. My best laid plans for the week turned into better plans when Erik scored a campsite for our two camper rigs for later in the week. We already had a plan to visit the farmer's market yesterday morning, and so what started as a routine schedule for the week just got a whole lot busier.
Before heading out for the farmer's market, I was able to stitch up the day's Tiny Treasure. This is Tiny Treasure #64. It has stem stitch, lazy daisy, running stitch, and French knot.

Yes, more pink gingham.
Design work for a new drawstring bag...a pink gingham drawstring bag with child themed applique.
I have woven paper and gingham here for the backgrounds of this sampling which I feel works well.
These pieces still need to be finished and I'm also piecing more samples.
The more information I have to hand when deciding on my final design the better,
Good morning, my friends. My day got all turned around by the weather yesterday. Thunder and lightning and rain in the morning put all of my gardening plans on hold. This morning I'm seeing my PCP for my annual physical, and so the garden is going to have to spend another day without me.
My first stop on yesterday's agenda was to stitch up Tiny Treasure #62. This one has satin stitch, French knots, stem stitch, and fly stitch. This morning’s Tiny Treasure will probably have to wait until I’m home later today. (It’s a ...

Last image, patchwork pinned and ready for the next section to be embellished.
This piece is developing nicely!
It was damp stretched last night ready for the final section to be embellished before I line it and put it together.
There's a 'freshness' to gingham that I love.
Below is a short video from when you last saw this which explains what I'm doing here.
Good morning, my friends. It was a busy day here, as usual. Not everything got finished, but most everything did. My first trip outside was to take a look at the garden to see if I could put off the hoeing for another day. It looked pretty good to me, and so I'd planned to do that first thing this morning. Then, I awakened to the sound of thunder and flashes of lightning. It rained for a bit, and then the sky turned this weird shade of pinkish red.

Good morning, my friends. It was a momentous day yesterday. I was able to harvest the first zucchini from the vegetable garden. We’re starting with the small ones while they’re still defenseless.

Good morning, my friends. I'm writing extra fast this morning because I have an early appointment with a new dermatologist. My dermatologist of some 35 years retired a couple of years ago. I've been seeing another doctor, but I haven't really felt comfortable with her. Now I'm switching. It's hard getting in with a specialist as a new patient, but I managed to score a July appointment, when his new patient appointments were booking out until December. I hope I like him. It's just a routine skin check...nothing to worry about. Hopefully, I ...
