Just couldn't do it....

Have you ever started a project and you have to force yourself to stitch on it? That's what was happening with March Word Play. I started it last year and thought I'd finish it this year and just couldn't get into stitching on it. I have so much stash I want to stitch that I had to put it away for yet another year...lol I started this Heart in Hand Easter Bird and am loving it. :) It's coming along pretty fast. I saw on Pinterest where someone had made these little lamp shades and I had to try it. So, off to Hobby Lobby I went and bought some burlap and bird eggs and birds nest. They were so fun and easy to make. I love them. They go great with my Birds of a Feather picture don't you think? Scarlett's been sick; Ash finially got her into the Dr. and she has an ear infection. Poor baby. Wish I could sit and hold her. Well, I know this is a short post but I gotta get ready for work; I want to share with you before I go the box I bought from Denise and the little bunnies with my grandbabies names on. She surprised me with these adorable little angels..I love them and ordering from Denise. She's a sweetheart..

I had the same experience with the January Word Play--I love it dearly, but it was kind of hard to stick with it and finish it up. I'm going to give the April one a try, though, so I hope it goes better :)

Your little lampshade looks so cute--and it's perfect next to your sampler!

Sometimes we all have a slump, and we just don't want to work on the design anymore.
Usually picking up something else helps.
Your little lamp turned out too cute!
