Here is the project we are doing, Moonlit Garden a Blackbird Design, the yummy threads and my fabric. The colors are so pretty. Do you like? We love it and are hoping to have it finished for Halloween. After stitching last night, to make sure we finish by Halloween we'll be having homework.
Thank you for all the comments on the flowers. Most everyone thinks it's Verbena or Phlox.....just to make sure which, sometime this week I'm taking a piece to the nursery and have them solve the mystery. I'll let you know the final answer.Lisa and I had a lovely time at the Mother's Day Tea on Saturday...I've but a picture on the sidebar.......look at all the goodies.
Well, I must do my homework...have a lovely week. Hugs, Linda
Sounds like a fun time. I used to cross-stitch quite a bit, but seldom do anymore. What fun to stitch with a friend!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind comments on Brad's prom pics!

How nice to have that to look foward to every Monday. I can't wait to find out the name of your pretty pink plant. I will be back to see.

Crafting with friends is always so much more fun. I'm so glad you enjoyed your Mother's Day. You deserve it! I always love it when you stop by. You always have such nice things to say. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteXO,

You will have so much fun stitching with friends every week! There are 3 of us that have been stitching together once a week for a couple of years now. We all get a bit cranky if we have to miss for some reason! Our 'regular' night is Wednesday but we are flexible and sometimes do Tuesday or Thursday. We take turns cooking (hubby's first question when I tell him which night we are stitching is 'who's turn is it to cook?)
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a 'group' project going - we just stitch on whatever, but I love the project you are doing!
What a great idea! I should get out my cross-stitching again.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a wonderful mothers day Linda!
ReplyDeleteI love love your banner!
Hugz, Dolly
Hi Linda! I had a typo in my link to Money Saving Mom! Sorry, I fixed it and it should work now! Lynn
ReplyDeleteYour mother's day tea sounds (and looked!) yummy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your compliment to my mum - she will love that someone thinks she's a "cool mum"!!!

Halloween is a long time away. You'll get it finished. And how relaxing. If you can see it. I'd need 3.00 glasses and a magnifier to see the stitches these days. :-(
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty, Linda. It seems when we do these projects with others, it makes it twice as fun!

What a fun idea to get together with a friend and have a craft night - Your "moonlit garden" project is so pretty. Your Mother's Day tea sounds wonderful - what a nice photo of you and Lisa.
ReplyDeleteOh what fun! It's always inspiring to work together in a group isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI used to love to cross-stitch. That will be a pretty stitchery when it's done.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your sweet comments on my blog. I am doing much better today!
Linda - Greetings all the way from Nashville, TN!
ReplyDeleteI'm a blogger too - and especially liked your strawberry entry.
I'll blogroll you on my blog, www.frpcrockpot.blogspot.com, if that's okay with you!
I like your design. You better be very good about doing your homework if you want it finished. It's so nice to be able to stitch with friends.
ReplyDeletesounds like fun. I saw that picture of the two of you at High Tea. I've only done that once but it was so fun. Where are your hat & gloves? I always dress up when I go.
