Chill in the Air to Fall Back

Hey, Friends!  I just realized that today is the New Moon, so it’s time for a TuSAL update.  Here it is… and can you tell that Halloween is passing and Christmas is coming?  If you’re interested in learning more about TuSAL (totally useless stitchalong), please visit Dragon My Needle. 

Well, honestly I’ve still been stitching on The Witch is In from the Fall Fling class.  I’m about ready to switch over to Christmas, though…and maybe not soon enough!  And here I sit, arguing with myself that I don’t need to start collecting the Blackbird Designs Anniversaries of the Heart series.  It is so beautiful, and they’re on special…  Nicole and Faye are real enablers, aren’t they?  

Take a look at my not-so-filled Autumn/Halloween tree.  It really does need a few more ornaments… should start sooner next year to have a few more finished.

I did finish the Blue Ribbon Designs, Blessed Beyond Measure Stitch Starter.  Due to excellent instructions, I’m very pleased with how it turned out.

On Thursday 10/28 I had an awful attack of pain – under  rib cage/sternum at the top of stomach.  I’ve said, even though it has been a very long time, that pain was worse than labor!  When I got to point of driving, went to the doctor. He thought it was gall bladder, so I went for an ultrasound on Monday. Within the hour he called to say it was gall stones.  I’ll be going to the surgeon on Tuesday, 11/9 to find out if it can be laparoscopic and when.  I’m hoping it will be soon so there won’t be time for another attack!   

Thanks for stopping by today for a visit – and I always love to read your Needler’s Points.  Have a great fall weekend, stay warm, and don’t forget to turn your clock back tonight. 

Peace♥Love♥Joy

Happy Labor Day

Happy Labor Day!  I hope you’re enjoying a day away from your normal toil and grind, doing fun things with the people you love most!

I wanted to share a few things I’ve stitched and finished most recently. 

From the Just Cross Stitch Annual Halloween issue, here’s Blue Ribbon Designs Perched on a Pumpkin R&R 30 ct over one – but I can’t read the color – using DMC floss.

Here’s a Stitcherhood freebie, Autumn on hand tea/coffee stained 28 ct also using DMC floss.  It’s finished as a little pyn pillow.

I finally made the bed to hold LHN Needle and Thread.

And last but not least, I finished stitching the Lizzie Kate Alphabet Lessons.

Now I’m off to find another something to stitch – I know it’s here, but where?

Thanks for dropping by, and I’d love to hear your thoughts today!  I always appreciate what you have to say.

    Peace♥Love♥Joy
and Happy Stitching!
