Family

Greetings everyone!~ Thank you all for all of your wonderful comments. They are so great and encouraging!! First I'd like to talk about a couple of the comments. Catherine said that she hadn't ever tried a needle roll before. You should, they're great. Most patterns for needle rolls stitch up very quick. There are lots of small oblong patterns that would make great needle rolls. You should go for it! Jane mentioned that she had a couple of punch needle patterns in her stash but had yet to try them out. Punching can be fun and a lot of the time goes quicker than cross stitch. Although, I will never turn from my passion of cross stitch. As with anything , it does take some practice. Hazel will be trying it soon and I can't wait to see her progress!

Most of you know that my dad brings me treasures from time to time that he finds at yard sales and flea markets. I have a very sweet picture of him taken in 1931 when he was 3 months old , that I thought I would share with you all. Wasn't he a beautiful baby?

Here is the lated treasure I have gotten from him. Isn't this chair great?! Now it's too rickity to sit in. I have no idea how old it is. It makes a great resting spot for my little seasonal sheep. Ok Deb, notice that the spring blanket is on? The poor thing must be confused as I have his spring blanket on but his hangtag still says "winter"! LOL.


Here is my latest punch needle. I finished punching it yesterday and finished off into an ornament for the peg shelf. I see a thread at the botton that got pulled to the front that I forgot to clip. Oops!

This is the fabric on the back. It is a Williamsburg print. I just love it.



Well I will shuffle off and get going with my morning routine. Hope you all have a must wonderful day ! Thanks so much for all of the comments. You all are so great!

Don't be a stranger,
