First of all, my apologies to all who are still knee deep in snow and don’t care to see another flake for sometime…
But at my house, this is the first pretty snow we have had this year. I think we had a few dustings but nothing this pretty. And it is on the week-end so schools [...]

I have been finishing up a couple computer projects. Took a piece to the framer that I want to display at NAN (http://www.needleart.org/). Guess maybe I should fill out the entry form too…oh fiddle-dee I worry about that tomorrow. Have been trying to visit my 91 year old uncle every day since he is not doing [...]

This is my den/office, it used to be my part of the family room.When we remolded we split this room in half and made my den/office and a formal dining room. I love this room, it is about 12′ x 12′ square and is just cozy. The bookcases and fireplace were here [...]

How I spent my week-end

I took the week-end off from computer work and played. I stitched, frog stitched and stitched some more…I made progress.
I took my angel to a guild stitch-in and asked them if they could see the differences in the gold wings and halo. The consensus was it was not different but appeared that way because [...]
To compute or stitch?

Still working on my ABS Angel…I think she is so cute. Everyday life seems to be keeping me from as much stitching as I would like. Also, does anyone else notice the difference in the gold on the left wing? Right wing seems to be alright. This is really strange since all the thread is [...]
