An update and a finish

Good Morning everyone!
 The sun is shining and suppose to be in the high 50's today. Gotta love the weather!
This past weekend I finished another CJC2012 (a small one) 
 
Four Seasons by the Trilogy
32 ct Summer Khaki Belfast Linen
recommended  Weeks Dye Works
Started 1/12/12
Finished 11/16/12
the frame is one that I had in my stash

A close up of the picture
 
And I have put in about 1000 Stitches in this next piece.
 
Abigail's birth sampler
this is the last picture I took on 10/30/12


and this is as of last night
The light blue is kinda hard to see
but will be more defined after the
back stitching is done.
Thats about all on the stitching front.
I spent some time at my DH's new shop he is building on our property. He has been doing most of the work himself to save some money so it is slow going because he has a full time job besides working on the farm. Here are few pictures from this weekend.
 
Wiring the lights up

and now it time for a couple of bbq's
Well thats it for today, I hope everyone has a great week!
Happy Stitching
