Text of the page (random words):
gotten two packages from my friend in france marylin the first package she sent was pretty much missing in action and we both figured it had been destroyed so she sent me another one but after many many weeks the first package arrived via argentina so here is a picture of the things she sent and the lovely stitching she made me isn t this little girl the sweetest thing you ve ever seen and marylin did such a great finishing job with it the ribbon on the sides it is proudly residing in my china cabinet on display then yesterday my best friend sent me a birthday package and this was what was inside i was so totally shocked these are handmade coffee mugs from the fragrant mushroom a store where she works pouring candles aren t these the most gorgeous mugs you ve ever seen she said she sent two so dh would have one also but i told her absolutely not he takes his mugs outside so i d just save the extra for when she comes to visit she also sent me a shepherd s bush kit that was on my wish list blue snowman so all in all i had a wonderful birthday summer isn t going too bad and i m getting caught up on my reading i m just ready to start stieg larrson s the girl who kicked the hornets nest picked it up at the library yesterday i wasn t sure i was going to like this trilogy when i started the first one but wow these books can haunt you it seemed like i had to wait forever for this book to get back to the library now i m going to try and download all my photos and once again apologize for how horrible my picture taking is i m sorry it took me so long to get this update done and i ll try not to let it go this long again happy stitching everyone posted by debs at 12 51 pm 6 comments labels birthday gifts lhn little house neighborhood lhn needle and thread lhn sing the blues sb blue snowman thursday may 27 2010 needle and thread a finish its been a hot few days and i do not do well with the heat after a month of rain this heat brings on the humidity most people take advantage of the nice weather to get outside i use this heat as an excuse to stay inside okay so i went out and played softball with my granddaughter on sunday then hurried back inside i think i mentioned on my last post that i was in the process of working on little house needlework s needle and thread and that the fob stitching was finished it s all done and i m now looking for a box to top with the main stitched piece the fob has been finished into a scissor fob i did not stitch this fob on the fabric diane chose for it i used the 32 count fabric color unknown that i used for the main piece i think it made a very acceptable size i filled the fob with plastic pellets for weight last weekend i pulled all the dmc for little house neighborhood and got started on that it s coming along nicely i have two houses nearly finished i m stitching it on 32 count r r cotton and doing it as a sal with a friend in scotland thank you for all the encouraging comments you left on my last post it was a very difficult time for me and you all helped more than you know i have heard from that person since then isn t it crazy how close you can feel to someone you have never met i think blogging does that for us allows us to meet and get to know so many different kinds of people and we are all as varied as the designs we like to stitch thank you all of you for being my friend for visiting my blog and leaving comments you all rock posted by debs at 1 39 pm 9 comments labels lhn little house neighborhood lhn needle and thread friday may 14 2010 moonlit garden framed finally well i finally got the frame made for this piece and everything put together the other day since its been so long since last i posted i had another finish so went ahead and framed that one also so here is my rendition of moonlit garden by blackbird designs and rose hill plantation by little house needleworks whatcha think i decided to go with a carved look for the moonlit garden frame but wasn t at all happy with the quality of the molding i ll just never buy it again i had the suggestion from patti i think about the color it should be oaky and chose english oak stain several coats of clear and it was finished by the time the frame was completed and dry enough to put the stitched piece into i had rose hill finished went ahead and made that frame used my old stand by molding and rosewood stain and framed them both on the same day i m definitely going to have to learn to cut mats for my pieces they just look so plain compared to what all of you guys are putting on your walls forgot to mention that i changed up the fabric color used vintage examplar light and changed all the colors to crescent color cottons except for one dmc she used that was one color i couldn t find a substitute for since i don t have all the cc colors i enjoy the look of the overdyes don t those roses look like the 60 s hippy flowers while waiting for the frame for rose hill to be ready i started stitching the lhn piece that previewed at nashville market needle and thread the scissor fob is stitched and tonight should see the finish for the larger piece i did not buy the mattress that went with this piece i m thinking more along the lines of a box top if i can find one the right size maybe use beads to make little bun feet and then put the scissor and fob inside just a thought the weather has been crazy here but not as crazy as it s been in other parts with all the tornadoes running amok we get hot weather then cold weather sun and then rain last night brought tornado warnings a blast from the warning horn thunderstorms and high winds had several storms blow through here last night seems like we ve had some kind of rain every other day this week and most of last week too positively creepy though i must admit to liking the nights when we had frost warnings i am not looking forward to the hot summer i ve had something on my mind for several months and it s really been bothering me have you ever lost a friend and not known why no argument no disagreement just silence where once were phone calls letters and emails exchanged on nearly a daily basis no explanation just nothing i had a wonderful friendship with this lovely person we talked on the phone almost every day sometimes more than once a day we exchanged emails notes letters packages often then for some reason i became persona non grata phone calls were not answered or returned emails not returned letters not answered i did get a christmas card with just her signature on it i feel like i must have committed some heinous crime but for the life of me don t know what it was i never gossiped about her never shared any secrets she shared with me if it wasn t for her continuing to add pictures to her album i would have thought she died i really hate to give up on her but it s now been something like 6 months and nothing last time i wrote her i requested that she return something she d been working on for me and that hasn t been done either it was a lorrie birmingham kit a needle book in a heart shape for my daughter in law i didn t think i could do the hardanger my heart hurts over the loss of this person and i don t know what to do anymore in doing this in this way it did bring home to me something that i did to someone else i had an email buddy that i stopped writing to for no particular reason i have since re established that friendship and apologized for the hurt i caused her nothing like having it done to you eh so there you have it i ve got it off my chest it s why i ve been so slow in posting having so much on my mind in other news my eldest son just shared with us that his wife is pregnant about a month along it will be his first child and he s grinning like a baboon they already have names picked out can you believe that i was still picking and choosing at the hospital after he d been born and here is what else i ve done in these last few weeks he picked up this water color at a yard sale last year i did some cleaning on it fixed it up a bit and framed it for his new apartment not sure what will be next for me maybe i ll just go back and finish the shepherd s bush halloween piece i was working on before i got sidetracked i have been saving my pennies to pick up lhn s virtues chart i really like that one stitch on my friends thank you for all the comments you leave the encouragement you give it is all much appreciated posted by debs at 12 20 pm 12 comments labels bbd moonlit garden lhn rose hill plantation friday march 26 2010 moonlit garden a finish howdy friends this is a drive by posting forgive the haste but i have to run to the grocery store and then continue to help my son chad in his quest he s in the process of moving into an apartment and he s been working on it two weeks now you d never believe the tons of movies and cd s he has not to mention books furniture clothing etc he has scoured our house to fill up his own place and i m hoping to see an end to the moving this weekend my finish is moonlit garden by blackbird designs i used the charted thread colors by weeks work but changed out the color of the fabric had a piece of prairie moon that i thought went really well with the thread colors the lettering below the house and stars is a bible verse so i added the book chapter and verse and to balance that added my name to the other side oh and the middle of the flowers were stitched in smyrna stitch along with the period and dots for the i s what do you think does anyone have a suggestion to frame color and should i tart the frame up or leave it plain all suggestions will be considered so have at it i was happy to have this piece finished those stars were driving me nuts so many of them and very few were charted the same but i m happy to say that i have pulled threads out for my next project which will be drum roll please little house needleworks rose hill plantation i pulled the threads yesterday and i ve decided to use crescent colours for all the threads but one couldn t find a good match for one of the dmc threads so i ll go ahead and use that one dmc color i m stitching it on 32 count vintage examplar with one strand of thread got the roof done and while the one thread is not covering as well as i usually like it s looking sort of old and faded and i do like that okay off to add pictures to this post and then to the grocery store i so hate spending money on food but its a necessary evil stitch on my friends and have yourselves a wonderful weekend posted by debs at 12 27 pm 14 comments labels lhn rose hill plantation moonlit garden by blackbird designs tuesday march 16 2010 and now it s march this year is flying by isn t it i can t believe that march is half over already soon it will be spring the snow will be melting and leaving mud pits all over the place see i look at it that way because of dogs coming in with muddy paws i had planned this update a lot sooner than it is taking place we ve had nearly two weeks of rain and gloom where the sun didn t show its face and made it difficult to get pictures of course there was some lazy in there too or too tired or too distracted or plain just too much to do i forgot to take a picture but i m 3 4ths done with bbd moonlit garden the house is done the pumpkin is done the lettering is done and half the stars are done i ll just wait and show you a finished piece ok now i have befores and afters before my tea cozy stitched on the linen that came on the finished piece as i told you before i couldn t figure out how to stitch the blasted thing while it was all together so i took it apart here are all the pieces after i ironed the stitching couldn t really fit the words the tea room on it because of how they cut the linen for the ruffle before shepherd s bush my pins pincushion here it is stitched up with all the finishing supplies took me an hour to find that envelope with the fabric as i had placed it some place to keep it safe yeah even safe from me it seems after my tea cozy all put together if i had been smart i d have checked the size because it doesn t fit over any of my normal sized teapots seriously it only fits over the 1 2 cup pots anyway here is how it looks all sewn up or sewn back together after shepherd s bush my pins i hate it as you can probably tell i did not stuff it or fill it with anything that giant rick rack was a major pain and i m taking it apart sewing it back without the rick rack and then will apply the rick rack to the outside by hand just what is wrong with cording or ribbon or even tiny ruffles rick rack ick i don t remember if i even said i was stitching this one but my son thought he would surprise me knowing that the money doesn t stretch to stitching stash and pick up this little lizzie kate flip it he even bought me two pieces of fabric one for the over 2 stitching and a piece for an over 1 for a fob so that is exactly what i did i ll frame up the larger one and give it to him as he likes all things halloweeny and i ll make a fob out of the tiny one as you can see nothing has been done on the finish finishing but i ll get to that soon and last weekend when he was out shopping he picked up the newer lhn piece battle hymn of the republic isn t he a sweetie he is in the process of moving into his own apartment so i d best get some framing done so he has something for his walls this is lizziekate s october flip it done with the recommended threads on the home front hubby is waiting for a call for a job he applied for that would mean more money and probably shorter hours i m really hoping he gets it right now he s working upwards of 65 hours a week and not getting paid for overtime and his schedule seems to be different every single day which is incredibly wearying dinner is nearly ready and after clean up i get to stitch while my shows are on stitch on my friends i am thinking of you while i ply my needle thank you
