Not stitching, unfortunately. But we are having fun with the kids, so it’s all good. We have soccer games every Saturday morning, and since two of our boys are playing (Lucas and Noah) we usually end up at the soccer fields early in the morning and stay past lunchtime.
Winter Days Free Cross Stitch Pattern
Lately the weather seems a bit moody around the United States. It’s supposed to be Spring, but a lot of us are still seeing Winter weather and cold temperatures. I finally saw some sunshine yesterday and today looks pretty good… it might turn out to be a really sunny week here in my part of […]

Stitching Bloggers #17: Shoes, Shoes, Shoes
Welcome back to the Stitching Bloggers blog hop! I’m running a day late with this one, because for some reason I thought Friday was the 14th and Saturday was the 15th. The calendar inside my mind is a messy, messy place sometimes. I think my internal clock is still out of whack from Daylight Savings […]

Another amazing snowflake finish landed in my inbox. Laurel stitched her fluffy January flake on 16ct “Aurora” by Picture This Plus – and what a gorgeous fabric color choice it is!
