Moooo....

Greetings all!~ Thank you so much for your wonderful comments yesterday , and always. You make my day ! Stitchers are just THE best! I have had a few questions aksed of me about quilting tips . I thought I would plan on a having a little tips and tricks post next week. I hope it doesn't bore those of you who are not interested in quilting. :)
Well, yesterday Kathy asked what I was going to work on next. Well, that would be Mrs. O'Leary's Dairy Farm! I worked on it last night while watching Sleepless in Seattle. There are a few movies that, even though I own them, I can't help but watch them when they are on t v. This is one of those movies. Here is my progress.



For those of you that haven't seen this pattern before, it is one of the new ones from LHN ( Little House Needleworks) . Just go to the new patterns page.

Oh, but it is going to be hot today! I stand corrected on the rain thing. My husband informed me yesterday, after I had made my post, that it did in fact rain cats and dogs during the night. I slept right through it! I have been so tired the last couple of days . I took a nap on Tuesday and during that time, we had some repair men come and fix the garage door. My husband said that I slept through all the banging. I didn't even know that they had shown up until he told me the door was fixed. I get up a couple of hours before everyone else does so I can have some "me" time. I guess all of that early rising and going to bed late has caught up with me!!

Well all of my exchange stitching is done, I just have to do the finishing. I can now sit back and relax about having that done. I don't have any others that I have signed up for so I think I will probably take the summer off from exchanging other than Round 2 of the BBD Stocking exchange in late summer, so I can do some for myself. We'll see.

Well girls and guys, I am off to do some housework. Hope you all have a wonderful day and stay cool! Thanks for visiting!!

'till next time,

don't be a stranger,

  1. This is such a sweet pattern, and I LOVE the cow. And can I say that I am so jealous of all your rain? We need some so badly down here! We're already on water restrictions, and it's only JUNE!

  2. I love the new LHN stitching. I love the colors in their charts. We had rain everyday last week. Then this week none to speak of. And it is hot here. I laugh when I think, Boy we need some rain...

  6. That cow is just adorable and love the milk churns and flowers - look forward to seeing the finished stitch. Here in gloomy England I think our Summer has been and gone in just 1 week as now we are back to normal with rain, wind and grey skies - your stitching always cheers me up xxx

  7. I haven't seen this piece yet and I'm not going to look - I'm just going to watch your progress on it and be surprised. You sound like me - up before everyone else so I can get some things done. I'm a morning person, but seems like I'm becoming a night person too. I suppose I'll crash and burn at some point!!

    We have a window A/C in our bedroom so even when it does storm or rain cats and dogs in the night, I can't hear it. LOL
