After all my stopping and starting, complaining and fussing, Sunday I regained my stitching mojo in the public library of all places. I went to return some books and donate a few magazines. While there I found a comfortable chair, good light, and brought out "Bluebird Alphabet". The library was quiet, and more importantly I could not walk away to let in a cat, water some plants, run a load of wash, let out a cat, vacuum, mess aimlessly on the Internet, feed a cat. You get the idea. I just happily stitched away - nice!
While downtown, I strolled around and admired the many hanging baskets.
At home I admired this BIG guy!
Not a very good picture...but wanted to share my Sunday morning companion!
This large Buck - all in velvet - strolled by the front porch as I was sitting observing nature with the cats.
What a lovely finish, Beth! And I like the idea of stitching in the library. It wouldn't work for me because I work there, though :)
ReplyDeleteThat is one big buck--are his antlers fuzzy? You always have the best nature photographs--I love them!
Wow, that's a large visitor to have in your "garden". I'm sure the cats had something to say.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finish! The colors are so pretty in this piece!
ReplyDeleteI just love your wildlife pictures.I especially like the buck. Jim and I love to watch the deer. They are our favorite animal.
ReplyDeleteLove the sampler - such a great design and pretty colors. I am wiping drool off my laptop after viewing those gorgeous hanging baskets - I love pretty petunias! Take care -
ReplyDeleteThat's such a beautiful finish. Congrats. Love your companion. He's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBeth, Just found your blog and its lovely!! Love the hanging baskets. One question, on your June Header, there is a piece stitched middle row, left side, starts with Honeybee's Mornin,what is the name of that piece? I've never seen it before. Thanks and take care,
