We just got back from a preseason high school soccer tournament, we played 3 games in a row, with no breaks....in pouring rain...lost 2, won 1, and 2 more games tomorrow, but Ashley works tomorrow so she will miss it. Tryouts are end of next week so this is good practice.
I picked up 2 pieces yesterday, first one is the doily Cucki made me for my birthday, I had it framed as I don't think I could bring myself to use it so I will hang in up and enjoy its beauty.
The second is LHN, Two Yellow Houses, I love everything LHN and always buying more and more then I will ever complete in my lifetime, but I will give it my best shot.
LHN- Two Yellow Houses 32 ct Belfast Linen- Amber |
JJ's Collectables is having a Christmas in July sale, everything is 20% off, and yes (hanging head in shame) I ordered more stash....we all understand this addiction.
As well as A Bee's Study from Kathy Barrick on Etsy.
I also got a new phone, I gave up my Iphone, which has given me years of faithful yet frustrating service, I switched to the Samsung 4s and have to admit, it's pretty awesome. I have so much to learn.
Ashley and I went to the Cincinnati zoo on Thursday and had a wonderful time, only took us 3 years to get there. For it being in a large downtown area, they did a wonderful job making you forget about the city and enjoy the outdoors with the animals.
Well, I am going to take advantage of some quiet time and go stitch. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.
Hugs and stitches
Dawn
