Stitching--- I have a Head!

Hi,
Actually sat down tonight to stitch. I was only going to do part of the body, but I completed the outside of the head....it actually matched up at the end!!!! Woo HOO....since I am still a newbie with linen....I was excited when it actually matched up! Here is a pic...

Finish and getting back to JBW French Dog


Hi, Hope you are enjoying your weekend. Ours has been quiet, chores around the house, errands around town and out to lunch today with friends. This weekend I finished up stitching Road Trip and made a back which I will stitch together when I find my thread twister drill for the hanger. Going to hang this up in the camper. Now working on the JBW Dog in Cherry Wine, will pull out a UFO/WIP to do when I am not in the mood to stitch on linen. I need my magnifiers, but the more I stitch the more I can tell that I am putting the stitch in the wrong place. (practice, practice, practice).
When I was visiting my sister she recommended A Dogs Purpose, A novel for humans, W. Bruce Cameron. I got it out of our library. I am enjoying it so far. Here are picture of my finish and JDW Dog. Thanks for stopping by,

Til next time,

Stitching and Piecemaker Needles

Hi,
A little bit of stitching tonight. After work today came home and cut the grass. After dinner, located some shoes I was looking for and organized my current WIP. I got the table out and sat on the couch and stitched. Finished up the truck pulling the camper and worked on the rivers. OH joy....good to stitch....had to blog about it. Also the last time I went to the LNS TSP, I picked up a pack of Piecemaker needles....I have always loved the Anchor needles...but the Piecemaker have a better feel to them Will pick up the small size, next time I go. If you haven't tried them I recommend them. Well, I hope to finish the roads tomorrow or in a few days. I am going out to dinner tomorrow night and grocery shopping on Thursday.
Til next time,

No stitching

Hi,
Not much going on and no stitching done. Last weekend we were camping and had a fantastic time. This weekend we got the truck serviced, errands and some chores done around the house. Another weekend gone....back to work tomorrow; all is good. Did go to the LNS and purchased PS Cats, Bats and Witches and Mill Hill Lakeside retreat. Also ordered the JCS Preview Halloween, the JCS Halloween Book and the JCS Ornament Issue. The JCS Preview Halloween came in I picked that up. Need to get to some stitching. Now on to play WOW.
