Thought I’d share my Blackbird Design stocking finish for the Quaker Exchange! I also decided to stitch on the back of the stocking as well. Think for the first one put together it turned out well. I happened to be lucky enough to be able to hand deliver this exchange piece and wish I had a pic of Judy’s expression when [...]

Wow, I know it’s been really busy but I didn’t think it’s been months since I posted last until my friend Adele emailed me and said “where are you?”, good question!

We had a bit of a scary New Year’s as my Dad ended up in the hospital on the 30th of December with severe congestive heart failure! It was a long week but he’s ok now and home. And two days after he got home [...]

Yesterday after the snow storm we had visitors out back. Three beautiful does. It was actually no more than an inch of snow after snowing most of the day but the wind made it bitter cold.

Wanted to share the gorgeous sunset we had Friday night! I wish I could have gotten a quick shot of the moon before it changed, when I first snapped pictures of the sunset I noticed the moon was blue! I chuckled to myself as the phrase “once in a blue moon. . .” came rushing [...]
