Where Have I Been?

 Sometimes I wonder myself. Where am I? What have I been doing? Have I accomplished anything? Maybe others feel the same way and I'm not alone.

We had an unexpected death in our family. I was appointed Administrator of their estate. I never dreamed there could be so much involved in handling a very small estate.

On to the two latest craft accomplishments. I was asked by my daughter-in-law if I would cross stitch something Christmas that she could make into a pillow. She didn't have any Christmas pillows. I chose two to stitch for her. I have finished one and very close on the second one.

This is Seasons Greetings from Christmas Samplers II by Prairie Schooler. Stitched on 32 count Lambs Wool Linen.

I also painted  something for a new friend who has been a wonderful addition to our lives. Please keep in mind I have had no formal art training. I took tole painting classes as an adult but no art classes in school.

I should be back soon with the second Christmas cross stitch to be made into a pillow. See you soon

PUMPKIN PATCH

I finished the first set and I think it turned out pretty neat.  This project was really very simple, but just a little time consuming.  I'm currently doing a second set for a friend.  Hope she likes them as much as I do.

 

 



NEW PROJECT IN THE MAKING...

This project is close to completion.  Just a couple more things to do.  I'm hoping it will turn out really cute.  It is super inexpensive to do.  That makes it even better!  Will post an After photo as soon as it is done.
