Doing The Happy Dance!
My friends reminded me today during our Wednesday stitching group that I haven't blogged in a while. Time just gets by me during this time of year. Up until today, the weather has been cool. Great weather to work in the yard. Weeding never goes away. On to the happy dance.
Dogwood Lace is finished and at the framer. She turned out beautiful. I love the pikish fabric and the baked apple floss.
A close up of the middle. I finished July Word Play. It is done on 36 ct pecanbutter fabric by LSL with the suggested floss. So cute.
I found this box in my stash when I was putting the craft room together. I think that I have had this box for 15 years. No kidding. It is a little beat up.
It was time to do something with it. I found this design that will fit perfectly. The fabric is a very pale blue and the floss is SNC silk called sidewalk chalk. Hope to put it together this week end.
Did some baking yesterday. These are bourbon chocolate cupcakes with strawberry butter cream frosting. So good.
I will end with with a picture of Stella after our morning walk. She knows that she shouldn't be sleeping on the bed but she is so darn cute. Until next time.....Happy Stitching! Deborah

Dogwood Lace is just gorgeous. I wish my computer could show the fabric color better. I can't catch that hint of pink, but I bet it really enhances the design.
The word play series is so cool. Nice stitching on this one.
Have fun doing the box finishing. That looks like one from Sudberry, yes? They always make good quality stuff.
And oh those cupcakes! What a yummy treat!
Ooh yummy, I've never tried strawberry icing before, it sounds delicious! I love the fabric you've used for this month's word play, such a lovely name for it too.
Best wishes.

Beautiful! Dogwood is beautiful. You did get a lot of stitching done in 10 days. Congratulations! I like the pecanbutter linen, July word play rocks - I love 4th of July. Oh my loaded cupcakes (bourbon) & the strawberry frosting..YUM!!
Great July wordplay. I just love Brenda's wordplay designs. Looking at yours I had sudden inspiration that when I come to do my July finish I am going to put the 2 family July Birthdays in mine. I think that would be a nice way to personalize mine. Thanks for the inspiration.
Neat you found the box and the perfect design for it, that's why you have to have a great big stash. ;)
Enjoy the first day of summer and all the other days too.
Wow, wow, wow! All of your finishes look amazing. I'm with Stella...after one of those cupcakes of course. :o)
