Half a Bird!!

Have you enjoyed the snow or detested it?

Well it is on it's way out here, we were supposed to get more Sat/Sun but as usual the forecasters got it wrong again.

I finished this the other day, but I'm not gonna make it up yet, need some cardstock first, so thought I'd show you the progress

The Peacock Chair

***

Working on an exchange piece at the moment, I think I will try and keep up with the exchanges I will be doing this year by putting a box in the sidebar so I can see what I have left to do.

*WARNING IF YOU ARE SQUEEMISH*

Do not read the following text!

Well I got a fright today, Bella had brought in half a Pidgeon, Yes that's right Half, the bottom half as I recognise the type of feet. I had fun getting it off her as she went outside with it trailing between her legs and she was hissing and growling at me. But I  managed to get it and it was finally disposed of!!!

Look at them here, Butter wouldn't melt!!!

Oh nearly forgot I have taken over the running of the Beatrix Potter Quaker sampler blog, So if you have this to stitch and would like to join us just email me. The same goes for the Ink Circle Stitchers blog if you have an Ink Circles Design to do email me and I'll send you an invitation. Or even if you would like to offer encouragement. That would be much appreciated

A new start for 2010

Here is my new start for 2010.

 The lovely Julie gave me the Peacock chair chart  last year and I had been looking for the right thread and fabric for it and I think I am happy with my choice. Caron wildflowers in Havana and 32ct Jobelan in Bay leaf.

(Do you see my lovely needle minder pressie from Karen, isn't it lovely)

I have also been Rak'ed by Barb with the Garden chair :0)

so as soon as I finish this I will be starting on that as well

Here is an update on CDT I have managed a couple more Triangles, this is a really easy design to stitch!

Are you enjoying the snowwhere you are (if you have some) My kids have gone to school their school isn't closed, much to the disbelief of the boys. lol

This was the garden early this morning.

The cats are tearing around the house as they won't venture out in the snow, I can hear them upstairs running about chasing each other.
