Sampler Lady Little House Needleworks "My Needle's Work"
And here are the two girls next to each other! :)

I got her finished up last night while listening to "The Queen's Fool" by Philippa Gregory. I love her books! I finished listening to "The Pillars of the Earth" while driving up here. It was good, but not as good as I thought it would be.

I'm trying to decide what to stitch next... I brought a stack of things to stitch. I should get back to Quaker Christmas. Tanya wants us to update April 1st for the SAL and I haven't done anything on it in awhile. Well, not much else! We're just hanging out. We might go look at some places later on today. There are some cute townhouses that are very reasonable. I would love to get into something like that. Write later! :)

The Poor Girl Has No Head....

The Sampler Lady as of 3/26/08

I will definitely have to fix that today! :)

My SIL and I are taking a photography class starting April 8. It's every Tues. for five weeks. She just got a new camera kind of like mine, but a canon. Well, we are both pretty clueless on how to use them. Other than using the point and shoot features. I'm looking forward to it. I think it will be fun. It will be good to get out of the house once a week and learn something new at the same time. Well, not much else! Write later! :)

A Little More Sampler Lady

DSC_0001-2

I worked on it a little bit last night. I finally got the skirt done! That took me forever it seems. :) I can't wait to see how it looks next to "My Needle's Work."

I'm going up to South Carolina with the kids for a week this Friday. I can't wait! It's going to be a nice escape. And then I'll just have two more months until I move for good - I really can't wait for that! :) Write later!

Sampler Lady

The Sampler Lady as of 3/20/08

I got a little bit more stitched on her last night. Thank you all for your kind comments on "Memories" and my new look. I'm still tweaking it, but I love the pink! :)

I'll be heading down to Bonita Springs after getting my ds from school. I'd rather be heading up to South Carolina, but my dh has to work this weekend. I will be going up there next weekend for a week, can't wait! :) Write later, which may not be until Monday because I doubt I'll be able to access the internet where I'm staying.

I went a little crazy....

My brother gave my mom and I some money to go shopping. For no reason other than he said he had a good year and wanted to treat us. He's way too good to us!

Anyway, I decided to stop by my LNS to see what was new. Seems innocent enough right?

Linen

Then again this is me we're talking about. I have no willpower, absolutely none. Especially when it comes to the linen drawers! I did find one new pattern (below). I love Primitive Traditions new quaker things. They are so pretty! I'm still thinking about that basket!

I stitched a little bit last night, but not much because I was so tired!. Matthew has been keeping me up at night. Crying and screaming like he's been hurt. It took me almost two hours last night to get him settled down. He's caught a cold from his brother and is not happy about it!

I'm thinking of going stitching tonight at Golden Needle. We'll see how tired I am after I get my ds from school. Although, knowing my lack of willpower being tired probably won't stop me. :) Write later!

The Sampler Lady

I couldn't help myself. I was going through LHN withdrawals. :) I ended up starting "The Sampler Lady" yesterday. "My Needle's Work" lady needed a friend.

LHN "The Sampler Lady"
Little House Needleworks "The Sampler Lady" stitched on 32 ct. Vintage Luna.

I stitched this while watching "John Adams" on HBO. It's a new mini series based on the book by David McCullough. It was so good. I loved the costumes and the sets. They were so well done. I can't wait until part 3. It's not everyday that you come across something really good on T.V. Well, Jake is needing me! Write later! :)
