TUSAL

Good Morning fellow Bloggers!

And Welcome new followers, I love that you stop by to see what I have been up too.

Its a nice cool morning here in SD. And I am enjoying having my windows open and letting some fresh farm air in and hearing the sounds of the chickens.

 

Yesterday was TUSAL and I was busy with my husband (its harvest time here) so here is my picture of my orts for this month and a vase with all my orts from previous months.

 

I have made some progress on the baby photo frame that I have been working on. I really need to buckle down and get it done because I need to give it to my great niece this coming weekend.

So here is an update picture as of this morning

I have all the cross stitching done now & I am working on the backstitching. Then there is just a couple of little rattles to complete and this will be a finish for me.

 

The last thing that I have to tell you is that Cathy over at Crafty Cat  (she has a picture if you would like to see) had a 100 follower giveaway and my name was drawn as the winner! There is a lot of great stash in the prize. Thank you so much Cathy! One of the charts that I won is Happy Everything and I have been wanting to get this chart for some time. This is my 3rd giveaway win for me in the last couple of months so I won't be entering any giveaways for a while so that I can give others a chance to win some cool stash. But do check out Cathys site! It really great!

 

Well my morning is just about shot so I better get off the computer and get something accomplished.

Have a great week everyone

Happy Stitching

Winner

Boy I don't know where my head was the other day when I drew the winner of my give away. I email her for her snail mail and then started reading blogs and then on to something else and completely forgot to do my post. So this morning first things first before I started play on this darn computer - getting this post out there.

Names in my Grandmothers old serving dish

Congratulations Lesleyanne ! she has already sent me her snail mail and I will be making a trip to the post office sometime today.

I have been doing some stitching but can't show anything yet as they are gifts so in a later post I will update you on these pieces.

Life this week has been a little busy. On Monday they started building DH's new shop here on the farm. And it looks like its going to be quite large.

There are 3 guys that are working on it and my sweet husband volunteered me to fix them there noon meal for them. Wasn't that nice of him (not). But I put on my happy face serve them up. I hate tring to decided what to make for supper everynight and now planning a noon meal also. I feel like all I am doing is cooking and doing dishes (I don't have a dish washer - my choice). And I will be glad for these next 2 weeks to be up. Maybe then I will start talking to DH again. hehehe.

Tuesday night we had our Township Board meeting, so monday & tuesday was spend getting there check book and end of year papers in order. Tonight is Catholic Daughters meeting and I am the Financial Secretary so I got  the papers in order for that. So not much stitching time

 this week.

And again today and tomorrow I have my granddaughter during the day while her parents are at work. And she is now demanding my attention.

Until next time

Happy Stitching
