Autumn Exchange

This arrived at my house yesterday.  I felt it deserved it's own post.  That and I needed better light to get pictures.  :)

Kathy sent me this during the HOE Autumn Exchange.  So great.








It's it all just fantastic.  Love it all.

A WIP and some framing

I have already finished some of my goals for November.  This is a very good thing and makes me feel accomplish.  heh.

First up.  Here is the progress on Odds and Ends from Tam's Creations that I am doing as a SAL with a German stitching group.



They are super quick with getting out the next piece when you are behind.  So I am sure I will be able to work on part 4 really soon.

I have also been getting some old pieces framed.  I kinda like doing it myself.  It is much cheeper and I can be as exact as I like.

Here is one.  As it has the date on it you can see it isn't too terrible old yet. 

Blackbird Designs.  Home is Where my Heart Blooms.



This piece was finished a long long time ago.  It was possible my first RR.  It was great fun.  All these bits of chart are from Heaven and Earth Designs... the artist, Ian Daniels, is no longer with them.  How do you like my creative use of lens cap to cover the names?  ;)



I will be back with more pictures tomorrow.  My fall exchnage arrived here today... it is a lovely one.
