Sweet Sweet Babe - almost finished!

I got most of the stitching finished on this. Now I just have to wait for the baby to born, so I can add her name and birthdate! I've decided not to do the checkboard background. I haven't updated lately because it's been crazy around here. My brother and SIL are here from Michigan. They got here last Tuesday and it's been pretty whirlwind. They went to Orlando today, so it's been a nice, quiet, normal day. I love them very much, but I also like our routine and I hate to get out of it! Now, I just have to decide what to get back to stitching wise - maybe Winter Wind - I've been ignoring it and I do need to stitch a couple houses on my Gameboard Sampler. I'm trying to get back into the SAL! Well, write later! :)

  1. Nicole your Sweet sweet babe is just really beautiful and you did such a nice job stitching it!! I read your previous post and what you are experiencing at your LNS is similar to things I have also experienced. Most are nice ladies, but it only takes one or two to hurt some feelings. It is the bloggers here that make me feel great and inspire me to stitch. I am new to my area too and sometimes it is hard for the ladies to accept a new person. Keep up the great work! Debby

  4. That makes such a pretty birth sampler!

    My needlework guild is very similar to your shop situation. There are chart nazi's there also. And there are some gossipers, which make me feel like I'm back in high school. But for the most part, its an enjoyable evening and the majority of the ladies are great.

    I don't know how you have time to stitch at all with your busy schedule. Glad you do, though, as I enjoy your blog!
