Good Morning Everyone!
I just got back from having coffee with my daughter. This is something I don't normally get to do because she is usually at work,but she is home this week recovering from surgery she had done on Monday. All is well and she is getting around good. And we had a  good visit!!

A couple of weekends ago we went to Marietta, MN for a truck pull, well we got rained out and never even unloaded our pulling truck. The drivers and there crew members ended up in someones shop and sat around talking and bull shitting so whats a girl to do?
Ya sit in the pickup and Stitch!
Glad I had it with me!!!

So I do have a better picture of this piece and more was completed.

This is Pastoral Sampler by Drawn Thread.

The other update I have is Cherry Hollow Farm Sampler
Sorry about the wrinkles!
I have the leaves done in the boarder now on to the berries then the boarder will be done.

Well its time to get ready for work.

Happy Stitching
Denise
