May 11: A Mother's Day Blessing, Finding Joy in Bikes and Sewing Notions from Faith, Trust and Breast Cancer

Hello There,

Thank you for stopping by! Happy Mother’s Day! My husband and I celebrated Mexican Mother’s Day yesterday and had a lazy morning on the patio. This afternoon my grandbabies and daughter came to visit. We transplanted Aloe Vera cactus into various pots for friends and family.

Cross stitch update: A winter sampler from Carried Away Quilting

The last time I wrote about my return to cross stitching, the snow was flying and it was ice fishing season in Minnesota. Friends, my progress has been very slow . . . pretty darn cute, but very slow. Here’s my start on the Jack Frost’s Tree Farm sampler, which I ordered from Fat Quarter Shop.
