Look what I got in the mail today...

Thank you again Rita for this beautiful Christmas Ornament. We are in a yahoo stitching group together and this is what she sent me; along w/2 beautiful pieces of christmas material and 2 skeins of DMC threads. I worked a double today and it sure was a great surprise to come home to.

I'm mailing out Rita's ornament on Monday and will post a picture when she recieves it. I'm positive she'll love it. :) Gonna go read some blogs and stitch; maybe look thru some of my stash; gotta get that list made up for the 2011 January challenge. Can't wait!!!

My girls are back..

Ashley and Scarlett just got home from seeing my SIL graduate from Basic Training from the Army. She went w/her MIL and 2 SIL's. I had to work and couldn't go. They are a cute family. He'll be here in 2 weeks from the 19th til Jan 1; then he goes back to Virginia for some schooling.

While they were gone; I didn't stitch as much as I wanted to. I am almost done with an ormament I have to get out in the mail Monday and I have a halloween theme RR I also have to get out next week. I'm just not in the mood to stitch. Lost my "stitching mojo" LOL. I did join the 2011 stitching challenge; I don't know how I'm ever gonna do it. LOL but it'll be fun to try. I have to decide what 15 projects I want to do. Shouldn't be that hard. LOL Wish me luck....

Wish me luck...

I'm going to do this crazy 2011 January Challenge; go to : http://minnanharrastukset.blogspot.com/2010/11/ristipistohassutus2011.html
to join this. You pick out 15 projects; get them all packaged up and each day from Jan 1 thru the 15th you start each project and have all year to finish them. How fun is this going to be? I can't wait.

Ashley and Scarlett are leaving for my SIL's graduation from basic training; their riding w/her MIL and 2 SIL's at 5 in the morning; they'll be back late Friday night. So, I'll have 4 days to spend getting my kits made up. Not much else going on; I've just been working and that's pretty much it. I was off today; but it was way to cold outside; so me and Scarlett stayed home while Ashley went to Walmart and to get her nails done. This is a picture of Scarlett and Ashely.

I'm going to Colorado Springs tomorrow to my LNS to get some material & threads for my challenge. I didn't do any shopping this past weekend. I'm a last minute shopper. LOL
