Hey All!

I have been making goodies on the weekends and surprisingly enough to me I have been doing pretty good at getting stuff done. I have also been pretty good about starting a lot!!

Here are some things I have been working on or completed since I last posted. Can you tell I have been thinking about Halloween?

We also celebrated National Hotdog Day like the hotdog lovers that we are.

I have finished a few special order Christmas items. I am making another one of the Santas, he turned out pretty cute.

Then there was the special order t-shirt quilt, which I am very happy about finishing up. I did not have a lot of fun working with all those different fabrics. I have decided I will not be making another one of those unless it is for one of my children.

Stitching is getting harder and harder with my eyes. I got glasses but he said my eye sight wasn’t too bad and it may be eye moisture. But I have been using drops like he said and it doesn’t seem to be helping. I am wondering if my Meniere's has something to do with it. I have been drinking a lot of caffeine lately.

We had rain for about 5 weeks straight, every day, and the gardens got totally out of control with weeds.  I had to strap on my boots and pull weeds all day Saturday. I still didn’t make a dent in it. A lot has died from too much water also. I love rain and it wouldn’t bother me to live somewhere that got a lot of rain if it wasn’t so hot. You cant walk out the door without getting bit up by mosquitos.

I also got some new patterns and books. This is just a sampling. Don’t tell my hubby. Shhh.

I am offering this wall hanging for sale. I hand stitched the applique and machine quilted it using a flannel as the batting to make it light weight. It measure 26x36. I am asking $75 plus shipping charges. Let me know if you are interested by emailing stitchanything@gmail.com.

I hope you had a great Monday and continue to have a great week. Don’t forget to find a little stitching time!!

Hi Jennifer, nice to see you back. As always you've been busy! I love all the Halloween things. I know what you mean about the weeds. I have things growing in my garden I've never seen before. Love the books!
Have you seen my last blog post? I've had a fun summer so far!
