A Little Stitching and A Little Cooking

I finally finished this PS piece. It's May and turned out pretty good. Love the sheep. Life has been really busy and I didn't get much stitching done. I won't bore you with all the stuff that went on like the washer flooding the basement or the car having a recall. Something I did do over the week end that was fun, was taking a cooking class. After stitching and reading, cooking is something I love to do. The class was on Rustic Italian cooking. Yummy! We made bruschetta a couple of ways, chicken cacciatore, polenta 2 ways, ricotta gnocchi with 4 different sauces and cannolis. It was a long day but a great day and then we ate all we made. The cannolis were easy and really good, so I am making them for my Thursday stitching group. I will take pictures after I make them. We were not allowed to take pic's during class.

This is one of my Nashville buys. I an using 32 ct . vintage butter cream linen and the supplied CC floss. The colors of the needlebook and the pin cushion fall are like colors and that's probably why I was drawn to the project.

Sammi went to the animal hospital today to have a cardiac ultrasound. I stayed with her and it was great to watch. Angell is a teaching hospital and the cardiologist talked me through it. Fascinating. Thanks for visiting my little piece of the world and leaving great comments.

Lastly, I want to express my sorrow for the lose of Lisa of the Primitive Needle. I did not know her personally but I loved her designs. My prayers go out to her husband and family.
