Folk Art Angel #3 Update

I know that it's been a while since I posted. Here is an update of my Folk Art Angel #3...

She just needs the rest of the French Knots done. (don't get me started on French Knots...uggg)

Our soldier is home for the holidays. He will be deployed to Afghanistan after Christmas. It is good to have him and his friends around. The house was getting too quiet :-) Before he arrived, he tried to cut his finger off while camping. Cutting wood while it was in his hand.....wow.

I am done shopping for Christmas. My wife gets to do the rest. I do all the wrapping though. The christmas tree and the house lights are up (mostly)... so... Bring on Santa!!!

Merry Christmas to all my bloggers!!

Happy Stitching

Summer Fairy Progress

Ok... I know what you are saying. "You didn't post your blog yesterday!" I know... I know.. I have no excuse... I throw myself on the mercy of the court.

I do have an update today... I have made a little progress on "Summer Fairy" by Joan Elliott... As you can see I finished her upper arm and began the wings. I was just bored with doing her body and I wanted to make some faster progress so I started the wings. I am realizing how big this will be when I get it done.

On a personal note... my dw is singing in the Christmas Choir. I am really proud of her for doing it. This group is not at our church and is more of a regional choir. Way to go Rekni!!!

Quinten is getting ready for SATs and Ricky is working hard in the Army in Hawaii. He will deploy to Afganistan soon. We are pretty worried about that part.

That's it for now...

Happy Stitching!!!!
