Jan 21 ~catching up~

I don't know where the week has gone! I thought it was starting to get a bit milder, but this morning it was very cold when I left for work. I feel the sniffles coming back...ugh!
I have been getting a little bit of stitching done, but my camera battery has died so I won't be able to post pictures until the weekend.
I've started one set of squares for the Fair & Squares exchange. Also worked a bit on "Three Things" and the Beatrix Potter Quaker Sampler. I'm almost finished with the first of three ornaments for this month...better get moving on those! And last night I started the Inauguration Sampler design from The Sampler Girl while watching the ceremony and events from yesterday. What a wonderful day...I was in awe watching the faces of everyone in the enormous crowd...you could just feel the hopefulness and pure joy. I am not a very political person, but I am looking forward to the next four years and I truly believe that that they will be good years if we all work together to make it so.

  3. Hi Lynda, I am answering you question that you left on my blog -- the "twistie" is someones pattern and I know not who!! I try to stitch one every once in a while so as not to forget how to do it. The circle is the inside of an inexpensive wooden hoop with a fabric tube folded over the hoop. I use mat board circles for the bottom. There is more, but I truly do not want to have the designer, whoever that may be find out that I am sharing her design finish.

    I do hope that you do not get the sniffles and good luck with all your projects - I have finished BP and have it framed and hanging in my dining room.

    Until later --- Roberta

    I was hooked to the t.v. on inauguration Day! I am also very hopeful and have great faith our new President will lead us out of this mess we're in:)
