February 23 update

At the beginning of this week, Mom and I took the kids to an indoor water park for 2 nights.  It was a lot of fun, but I didn't get much stitching done, and oldest DD got sick at the end of our vacation.

This is what I have worked on:

 Finished Doodle Doo, for Mom

 Doodle Doo, by Angel stitchin, on linen, using DMC 310, 

and ST Brandy, Buckeye Scarlet, Midnight and Oatmeal

Autumn Sampler Snippet by Lizzie Kate

Land that I Love, by Shepherd's Bush, another one for Mom.  

I am giving it back to her and she is going to finish it.

Seasonal Shelf for October and a finish

Wow, I seriously have not been keeping up with my blogs!  Way too busy these days!  I went with Mom to the Shepherd's Bush retreat in Park City, Utah, in September.  I haven't gotten pictures together yet to post to the blog.  I will try to get that done before Thanksgiving!

I never posted a picture of the seasonal shelf for October.  I have a lot of Halloween patterns completed!

 Just a few for November.

And this was finished in September, while on the retreat!

November pillow, by Pine Mountain Designs, stitched on Aida,

 using DMC 502, 3012, 3011, 676, 3820, 922, 920, 739, 433, 938, 310

Number 16- Pumpkin Tower

A freebie pattern from Three Blessings, called Pumpkin Tower.  Mom had started this pattern, who knows when.  I  finished it August 6.  I haven't touched any stitching since June, and felt the need to get started again.

Pumpkin Tower, stitched on black 10 ct something, with DMC threads. Not sure how I feel about the buttons.  The moon seems okay, but the cat is a little small for the pattern.  Oh well!
