Look at that gray sky.....it's getting darker by the minute and will be raining shortly. For the past week we have had rain every single day, and more is in the forecast. I really haven't been doing much this past week, kinda staying in just puttering, reading, watching some good movies (Netflicks) and stitching.
Last night was our SAL and look at these beautiful.......
Calla Lillies
Michelle brought me. Aren't they pretty...I love this flower....plus she made the most delish chocolate cake for us. It had a fudge like frosting, and I tell you it was to live for....ooh so good. I have to have the recipe. Believe it or not after catching up on all the latest news we did get a lot accomplished last night....
Bless Our Home is a sweet stitch....this is the first time I've used Crescent Colours thread and they are so nice to stitch with. I think the house color Blue Moon is pretty...actually all the colors are very pretty.
Well, everyone has left, time to turn the lights out until next week. Oh, wait just one quick peek at the charts I bought at The Elegant Stitch.
I'm not sure which one I'll work on first...I'm thinking the one of the little couple. I wonder if I can get that finished by my anniversary? I think I'll give it a try.......hugs, Linda

How much fun to have all the pretty things to decide on stitching! Bottle up some of that rain and send it to me! We are so dry! blessings,Kathleen
Oh, I'm jealous that you and Michelle had a stitch along without me ;)
Your home is beautiful and your stitching is lovely!
Crescent Colours are my all time favorite overdyed fiber. Just lovely!

Hi Linda....I've been doing a lot of puttering here too,,,,,no snow but just a bunch of rain and cold!
THe lilies are lovely! So sorry to hear you are having gloomy weather! What is a SAL???
Rain, rain, and more rain. Did you see a rainbow today about 4? Movies sound like a good thing to do on such a day, since I don't stitch.

The calla lillies are beautiful. I love your items to be stitched and the one you are doing now. To answer your question, I always use two strands of DMC. Thats what I used on my Stars. Thanks for the nice comments.

You have some beautiful choices for stitching. The calla lilies are lovely as is your home.

You picked some lovely charts to work on. Have fun choosing the next one, that is what stitching is all about.
God bless.
Hi Linda,
Trying to catch up on my visits.
Hope you're having a great wk.

Sounds like a great idea to get all snuggy in your house with the rains coming! Love the lillies!
Hugs, Sharon
I have a cross stitch pattern that I bought while on my honeymoon almost 10 years now....... It just sits there....... It has the theme of our wedding..... I really need to do it but I am stitching person......... Maybe I will give it a way one day on my blog......Let someone else enjoy it!
You lilies are beautiful ..
Isn't rain the worst! I can live with cold but rain just gets me down!

How fun that you get to stitch with your friends. I'd probably talk so much I wouldn't get anything done!
I have Netflix too. I watched The Secret Life of Bees last night. It was so good.
Funny thing. Last night I had a dream that I was stitching. Threads all over the place.

Those lilies are so pretty! Feels like spring is coming for sure now.
Hi...I came over here from Samaritan Women's blog...your title caught my eye and I really enjoyed my visit here!
I don't do stitching but it is actually something I've been meaning to learn, so soon...:)
Blessings,

I don't know about you, but I really enjoyed all the rain we had. I'm hoping for more :0). God knows how much we need it.
I also find I drink more hot tea on a rainy day. Just noticed that one. lol!
Anyway, I tagged you! I hope you'll be able to participate. Check Friday's post.
Hugs and have a great weekend!
The Calla Lillies are beautiful Linda.
Looks like you're stitching a pretty new piece. It will be fun to see it when you finish.
I'm going to be posting the winner/recipient of the book passing this evening.
Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs, Andi
Great photo of the sky, love the pinkness of the trees under it. Rachaelxo
