VOHRH - Finished Block #1!

I got block #1 finished today! I'm so happy with how it turned out! I could not get a straight scan to save my life though! So here's my crooked scan pic...


VOHRH - Block #1 finished!!  7/10/06
Block one started 7/6/06 - finished 7/10/06.



Two weeks until my due date! Both the boys came a few days early, so I'm thinking maybe sometime next week?? We'll see! I went to Babies R Us today. A friend gave me a gift card so I put it toward the purchase of a new swing. I like it because it's small and portable. I think it will be good for when we go down to Florida.


Speaking of Florida... my husband said they are 99.9% sure he will get the job in August. The sheriff just has to sign off on it on July 21st, so we'll definitely know by then. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I'm going to miss Georgia... it's so pretty, especially where we live now - out in the woods. But Florida is beautiful also.. the beaches and palm trees.


I get to drive to Alabama again tomorrow... yeah! And I have to get up at like 5 am to go, so I'm going to bed very soon!!

  1. That looks so lovely! And you've stitched it so quickly too.

    I hope for your sake the baby comes a little early, but for selfish reasons I hope he stays where he is for a bit so you get more stitching time! LOL!

  4. The first block looks great!

    I have heard great things about all of the FP Aquarium products. I was considering the full sized one for our house.

  8. Gorgeous block! I agree with Nicki's comment that it'd be great if you get some more stitching done for us--but we don't have to carry that baby around!

  12. Hi Nicole

    I am new to your blog but I wanted to say that I think that your first block of Village of Hawk Run Hollow is just beatuiful!! Congratulations on getting one whole block finished! I have cross stitched since the early 1980's and just love it! My mother in law lives in Commerce, GA. I see that you live in NW Ga. as well. I will love watching your progress!!
