It's been really busy around here for the last month or so. Some stitching has got done but not as much as I would like. I did 6 Halloween ornaments which I will show you after the have been finished. I am sending them to my blogging buddy Vonna to finish. She will do them do them a lot more justice than I would. I did pick up 2 pieces from my framer. Please excuse the photo of the first piece. The glare from the glass was terrible. You can click on any of the pictures for a larger view. I had this piece matted because I wanted it to appear bigger than it is and I really love the frame. I love Ghoul and the frame is one I have used many times. Where have I been? Here is a clue. I took a really large boat and went to Bermuda. During a hurricane. The storm was of no issue to the boat or to Bermuda. We got there one day after the storm and you would never know that a storm blew by. I love the pastel homes and businesses. The people are friendly and the shopping was wonderful. Look...

I hope all of you in the US had a wonderful Labor Day Weekend. Mine was just how I wanted it to be. Quiet! The weather was perfect. Did some errands, lots of stitching, walked with Stella, did some yard work and had turkey burgers. Just about a perfect holiday. I finished Ghoul by PSS. Love it. Hope to find a frame in my stash for it. Next up is Turkey Love by PSS. Have I mentioned how much I enjoy stitching Paulette's designs? I used 32 ct v. examplar LSL and the suggested NPI and Belle Soie silk. The silks are beautiful. This one will go to the framer. I think that I want to mat this one. Cheryl and I have been thrifting a few times during the summer months. The clear frog came with the bottom as a set. The glass is etched in a floral design. Very nice. The little brown frog is very different. This green dish is so beautiful. The picture does it no justice. There is a beautiful design in the glass. I couldn't pass up this sugar and creamer. The color and design is so pretty...
