Beading and a New Start



Hi,
Had a good weekend, pretty much spent it at home working around the house, yesterday some shopping at Walmart, for misc stuff. Today went to the travel trailer and made the bed and took down some supplies. When we came back had some lunch and I worked in my craft room. Fixed my co-workers badge holder, restrung and put some swivels for the big split ring. I fixed my black and white one with a smaller split ring. Going to see if I can find a split ring plier soon, I hope it helps on opening the split rings. Seems to by the look of them on the web. Here is a pic of my work for this week. Going to start a new cross stitch project Post Stitches Witches Fate. Hope you had a good weekend.
Til next time,

Thank you!

I saw on giggleface studios the great pillows Tracey made for her couch. She let me know she found them at Joann's. I have been looking for bigger size pillow forms for a while. So...wha la...off I went they were buy one get one free. So another project completed a huge pillow for my niece. It is covered with horses. Thanks, love reading the needlework blogs.

It was great, I worked on the July towel....some cross stitch but mostly back stitching, hope to finish it soon. I probably have another 2 hours to go.....Hope you were able to do some stitching. Have a good night.

A new start...

Hi,
We just came back from a week of camping on the DelMarVa....had a great time. Today my best friend and I went stitching with a group of ladies at a near by church. We also had a pot luck. It was great stitching, and seeing all the ladies, we have not been there in a few months due to schedules. The food was great, there were 11 of us there today. Why my new start....when I am at the church I have to stitch on something with a big count....so I started the July towel, Year of towels. I did not complete the March towel but I could not bring that today.....So I started the July...LOL. We are meeting again this Sunday, so I hope to bring something new, I plan on finishing up July........
Hope you all are enjoying your summer.
Til Next time,
