Finally An Update

I know it's been a long time coming but things here have been in an uproar.  DH was doing well at first after his lithotrypsy but now it seems he does OK fur a few days then he's back at the starting gate so to say.  He gets up goes to work and that is about it.  anyway I have been getting some stitching done this is an old Cricket Collection from the 1980's and I finally decided I've had this long enough and it's time to stitch it.  Love to see all of your comments.  I'm going to do a giveaway of the chart once I'm done stitching.  So if you're interested make a comment and if you become a follower that will be another chance to win and if you post about it on your blog you'll have another.

Update

Finally here is my second square of Prairie Schooler done!  Isn't if funny how a few stitches make such a pretty piece.  I wasn't sure about this one when I first started it but now I can say I really like it.  I have now started on a Dimensions Kit for a friend of mine and I really don't like the floss that comes with them so I'm waiting on my floss.  I ordered it this morning from my LNS and hopefully it will be here by Wednesday.  I guess I should say that my LNS is 50 miles from me  LOL so it's cheaper to get it in the mail.  The shop that I order from is great.  They send things right away and all they charge is the cost of the postage.  So give them a try if you need something, really nice to work with. http://www.fancy-works.com/

Small Update And Contest

Hello Everyone, Well my stitching is going slowly but surely on my Prairie Schooler More Friends square it's an out of print chart......Wish they would do some reprints on some of these older charts, for one they're great charts and it would be nice for new stitchers to be able to get to stitch them too.

Ruth is doing a really nice giveaway and I know that you stitchers will be interested. http://ruthsrunningstitch.blogspot.com/

More health problem here too for me this time, I have to have an ultrasound and another biopsy:(  I am getting tired of this to say the least.

Way Too Long Since My Last Post

Wow my last post was wayyyyyyy back in February, I have been stitching slowly but surely on this sampler and it's finally done.  We have been dealing with kidney stones again poor DH has loads of them he is supposed to have lithotrypsy surgery again in May.  I think now we're up to his 7th one since 2000,he always produces lots of stones, him just have one nooooooooo we have at least 13 in his right kidney and not sure how many in the left.  Well guess I'll just make sure I take some stitching with me for the day of his surgery:)  I have now started stitching another Prairie Schooler chart from the Friends leaflet.  Nothing really to show right now just they and a beak of a bird:)  Well hopefully it won't be so long between posts the next time.

Hoping For Spring!

I guess you shouldn't wish your life away but I am so ready for Spring and the flowers, birds, bees and being able to get  on our side by side ATV and get out in the woods. It has been extremely cold here and lots of snow and ice.  We're supposed to have some relief from the cold starting tomorrow. I have just finished a Prairie Schooler Friendship Sampler.  It was lots of fun to stitch and I have just started on My 4 Boys "Home Sweet Sampler".  I have had to frog a little already but I have that all restitched.  Hopefully I will have a picture of it soon too.

Another Small Finish

Hello Everyone, I'm way behind other than in my stitching.  Hopefully will find time to read posts from my groups and all the blogs that I am behind in too.  Anyway here is my latest finish, which was a freebie chart and I have changed it with the added beads, thanks for looking and you nice comments. Here is the Link for the Free chart. http://angelicstitches.blogspot.com/2008/04/2004-minis.html
