Just a quick post

My brother framed the Cardinal piece and will be sending it to his Grand Daughter with a note telling how her Great Grandma loved Cardinals and a little about her. She only saw our mom once when she was 3 years old and she's 9 now. I hope Chelsea will like it.

One flower down, 1/2 bird down Two leaves down and a lot more to go

Oh and a finish!

I finished this a couple of weeks ago and never posted it. It probably will go to Faithful to Felines to sell. I love these cats but they are tricky. If you don't concentrate you make mistakes, I ended up frogging a whole lot of it but was glad I did. Speaking of the cat shelter, we had 55 cats and kittens adopted out in March! We are thrilled, people are finally finding out we are there.

My new stitching obsession are designs by Crossed Wing Collection I love them. I ordered a couple of them with some other patterns last month or was it Feb. as I ordered the one I finished a couple weeks ago at the same time. I was bad one night and ordered 8 patterns then a 9th one a few days later and I don't regret it.

Slowly but surely I am getting my books and patterns in order according to subject. I had them that way but over time messed them up. I must have over 1,000 books plus the patterns!

How was everyone's Easter? Mine was very quiet. I just had my brother come over and he wasn't feeling well so left soon afterwards. We had a real exciting meal....Lee's Chicken! With the headaches I've been having I didn't feel up to cooking. Last Wed.-Sun. were horrible. Finally feeling like I'm on planet earth at least. But I've had it with these headaches.

Tomorrow my sister and brother-in-law are coming in with their two grandchildren for a few hours anyway. It's Spring Break and both Kay and Ken have just retired so they thought they would go to their daughter's a couple of nights. Heather and Bryan are putting a couple of bedrooms in their basement so Kay and Ken can stay there when in town, and any other member of Heather's family that comes in from out of town or state. Kay and Ken had planned on moving to this side of state but Ken was recently diagnosed with a terminal illness and for now has to stay on that side of state. Maybe in a couple years they can move over here if things go well.

Well...until next time Happy Stitching! I'm going to go catch up on blogs. I've not only been bad about blogging but bad about coming here and reading posts.
