My Stitching Update

Good Morning Everyone!!!

The new year is here and has started out pretty good!
Every one is in good health!
And I have had plenty of time for stitching!

Sit back and enjoy what I have worked on since my last post.
I have the beads on one of the Kings, and I didn't get this done before Christmas like I had hoped, maybe by this Christmas.

Well that's about it for stitching so I will leave you with a picture of one of the Christmas present that I bought for the family to share
Yep we have a drone (not a big fanny one) but it will take video's and pictures. 
The boys are loving it!!!

I tried to attach a video but it wouldn't work for me so you have to settle for a picture.

Time to get myself motivated and get something accomplished before I head to work.

Have a great day everyone!
Happy Stitching
