gone and I decided to try to use this blog yo keep track of my stitching
life. Hope anyone still reading it is interested.<br />
<br />
In
January I started a SAL on the Little House Needleworks Facebook page.
I'm hoping to finish the Hometown Holiday Series. I started it a couple
of years ago and got 2 out of 15 done lol.<br />
<br />
So here is January. I got off to a great start.<br />

<br />
I know I said that in April of 201 but on one could have predicted the ride we were about to take. I had a gout attack right after I wrote that and Andy tried to sell the camper without my "hair on the back of my neck". Well he sold it but the woman gave him a Deposit and then the check bounced! Let just say we are out about $10,000! We got a judgement against her but fat chance of ever seeing that money again. I am glad that we sold it though as the next year and a half I would have had no time to go.<br />
<br />
Daughter number 2 started feeling sick in May and in July was diagnosed with a very large oral cancer tumor. We were sent immediately to Universitly of Pennsylvania Hospital to one of the best surgeons in the world (we have since met doctors from all over the world who come to train with him) and on August 4, 2015 our journey began with her surgery. It has been a long ride and if you want to hear it you can read her blog www.clydebegone.blogspot.com. I will say that she is cancer free, engaged and hoping to get back to work part time the end of January!<br />
<br />
I am going to try really hard to keep track of my stitching with this blog as I have done a lot but have no idea what lol. Also with all the time off I have taken from work I need to stitch from my stash and maybe get rid of some patterns I no longer like. More on that later.<br />
<br />
Tonight I'll try to finish a small I started yesterday as a last start and last finish to 2016. Hope to post pictures tomorrow (or later tonight)<br />
<br />
May 2017 treat us all a little better than 2016 did.<br />
<br />
Hugs,<br />

Life for the last year has been busy to say the least with trying to take care of the house, camper, family, work and a few medical problems. Nothing to serious but all painful and time consuming.<br />
<br />
This Spring we are simplifying our lives. Selling the camper, fixing up the house, and slowing down. We are making time to enjoy our family and lives in between working. I'm still stitching and will try to start posting as soon as I can find the camera or figure out how to do lit from my phone!<br />
<br />
If you are still out there thank you for your amazing patience. I'll be back soon!<br />
<br />
Hugs,<br />

I know the calendar says it's spring
but here in PA Spring seems to have gotten lost on the way here! It is
still cold and windy. Unfortunately the one part of Spring that has
found us is the pollen. The newspapers have been calling it the Perfect
Storm of Pollen and I believe it. It's getting tiresome but between the
pollen and the cold who want s to be outside? At least if gives me time
to stitch!<br />
<br />
Here is my April report. I spent:<br />

Not too bad although maybe I can do better next month!<br />
<br />
I didn't work on Shores this month as I was loosing my mojo so I started Needleworker by Little House Needleworks. I bought the pattern and threads last summer while on vacation and I just got a basket I want to hang it on so I started.<br />

The fabric is 16 count Aida which I tea and coffee dyed using Vonna's tutorial. This seems to be my go to fabric lately. Please pardon the wrinkles but I wanted to get this post in. At least you can see the color variations in the fabric although it is darker than it is showing here.<br />
<br />
I hope you are all enjoying your stitching and this wonderful challenge!! Thank you so very much Mel!! You are the best and I am sure we all appreciate all that you do!!<br />
<br />
Until next time,<br />
Hugs,<br />

<br />
I can't believe how quickly March has gone by. It's time for my March Stitch From Stash Challenge report. I bought 4 patterns for a total of $23.99. Close but still under the $25.00 limit. I will say that I added a few things to my wish list but also took a few off so this waiting to buy is working.<br />
<br />
Here are the patterns I bought.<br />

I got the 2 Trilogy patterns <i>Cat Treat </i>and <i>Friendship </i>for $8.98. They are for gifts. then I saw Little House Needleworks and Shakespeare's Peddler teamed up to sell two wonderful patterns <i>Neighborhood Friends </i>and <i>Cats in the Garden </i>with the profits to go to animal rescue. You could even nominate your favorite rescue to possibly receive a portion of the money raised. Not only do I love both desginers but anyone who knows me knows my dogs are rescues so I couldn't resist.<br />

I worked on <i>Shores Of Hawk Run Hollow </i>and since January I have finished blocks 3 and four, did the outlining of all the other blocks and started block 5. Not bad for someone who has taken at least 2 years to do the first 2 blocks!<br />

Then I put it aside and started working on <i>Under the Boardwalk </i>by Pickel Barrel Designs, which had been kitted up for a while. The colors are brighter than I usually like but it is a gift for my husband. He used to go to Seaside Heights in NJ as did I in our teenage/young adult years. We also spent many happy days on the boardwalk with our girls when they were young so is has been so very hard when it was destroyed by Super Storm Sandy and then by fire a few months later. I had to contact Nancy the designer with a questions about the pattern and when I told her the story she very generously charted the words "Seaside Heights" where "Under the Boardwalk" as to go. I can't wait to finish and hopefully will be done by the end of the week.<br />

I continued working on Shores of Hawk Run Hollow. I completed blocks 3 and 4, started block 5 and outlined the remaining 7 blocks. I am feeling so accomplished. I had $100 dollars to spend this month plus a free weekend to spend what I wanted from the Nashville show. I am proud to say I spent $8.50 on a pattern and nothing else!!! I will get back to you with pictures soon but I wanted to get my report in!! I hope the weather has improved where you live. The snow has started melting here and we had a thunderstorm today. Snow and cold is supposed to return next week!<br />
<br />
Hugs to all,<br />

Sorry I was gone for so long but I have been crazy busy at work and stitching. I went back to full-time this year and although I am enjoying it I seem to only have time to stitch lol.<br />
<br />
I (along with 129 others) have joined the <a href="http://epicstitching.blogspot.ca/p/blog-page.html" target="_blank">Stitch From Stash 2014</a> Group that is Mel's idea at <a href="http://epicstitching.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Epic Stitching</a>. We have committed to only spending $25 a month (or less). Luckily I have so many projects in my stash and lots of fabric and floss. I am hoping to spend as little as possible. We are to report our progress by the 28th of each month on our blog. See the method to my madness?!? This will also help me to make time to blog!<br />
<br />
First let me show you my final finish for 2013:<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
All these snow days are really taking a toll on my paycheck so this is the perfect year to "stitch from stash". Thank you Mel for a wonderful idea whose timing couldn't have been better. Whenever I feel the itch to stash shop I go on 123Stitch and add to my wish list! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I hope all has been well with all of you and I look forward to sharing many finishes with you!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Stay warm and dry and happy stitching!</div>

I hope all you who are in your summer season are enjoying it so far. It has been a brutal week here in PA. Hot and humid. Today we are waiting and watching for severe storms to start. At least I have been a busy girl (and not just at work lol). I have a few finishes and 2 starts.<br />
<br />
First let me show you the progress I have made on the Little House Needleworks Virtues series. I am just loving this series and have promised myself that, for a change, I will start and finish them as they arrive each month.<br />

Well I know it has been a while but hear we go. Christmas City has finally begun to feel some tastes of spring. There are trees budding all over the place ahhhhh-choo! But they do look nice. Winter went on for way to long. We had a day a couple of weeks ago that hit 88 degrees but we are back to nights in the upper 30's and days in the upper 50's. A little cold for this time of the year but at least it is a step in the right direction. I think we will go right to heat when the time finally arrives and then I will complain about the heat. I perfer the cool weather. If it would stay around 70 all year round I might be comfortable lol. Not likely huh!?!?!<br />
<br />
Well let's get to the updates:<br />
<br />
I participated in a biscornu exchange on the About.com forum. Here is the one I made (first one ever):<br />

The pattern is <i>Biscornu #356 </i>from the Floss Box using recommended colors and done on rose 14 count fiddler's cloth. For a first time I think it really came out nice. The pictures does not do justice to the colors.<br />
<br />
And this is what I received from Minnie at <a href="http://minnie-allxxs.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">All XXXs</a> If you haven't checked out her blog please do she really does some wonderful stitching.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am really hooked on Little House Needleworks patterns. <i> </i>I am doing the entire Virtues series. I'm not sure how I will finish them but I am thinking of making a window topper out of them for the bedroom. We will see when I have them all. I also ordered her <i>Hometown Holiday Series </i>and I am so looking forward to stitching them. I also promised myself I would get back to work on <i>Shores of Hawk Run Hollow. </i>I love the new <i>Spring of Hawk Run Hollow </i>but I can NOT order the pattern until us finish <i>Shores.</i> (I must be good ... I must be good ... I must be good...)</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
We opened our camper last weekend so I am hoping to get some serious relaxing and stitching done this summer. </div>

Thank you for hanging in there with me! I will keep trying to do better (I can't do much worse at this blogging thing can I lol)</div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Well <span style="font-size: small;">as m<span style="font-size: small;">uch as I like winter I am done with it this year. It <span style="font-size: small;">seems like it has been cold with a couple of in<span style="font-size: small;">ches of i<span style="font-size: small;">ce or snow but nothing big. I am tired of being cold and want to open my windows and hear the birds singing before it is time to complain about the hea<span style="font-size: small;">t lol.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

Yest<span style="font-size: small;">erday was f<span style="font-size: small;">reezing<span style="font-size: small;">, windy and and last night the wind chills were down below zero. Oh <span style="font-size: small;">Sp<span style="font-size: small;">ring please hurry!!</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

It is sooooo temp<span style="font-size: small;">ting! I promised myself that I have to finish <span style="font-size: small;">"Shore<span style="font-size: small;">s" first but then I think on to <span style="font-size: small;">"Spring".</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<br />
I have finally started my 2013 stitching! First (better late than never) here is a picture of my first TUSAL.<br />
<br />

Not bad considering I started January 1st LOL. The colors are even prettier than this picture shows and are almost all from the biscornu that I have been making for an exchange. I am mailing it out Wednesday so as soon as I know my exchange partner has received it I will gladly share. I really like the pattern that I got from <a href="http://www.theflossbox.com/" target="_blank">The Floss Box</a>. Their biscornu patterns are beautiful!!<br />
<br />

<br />
Last week I started a project I got to hang in the new bathroom. I picked the bathroom colors from the colors used in the pattern. It is <a href="http://www.123stitch.com/cgi-perl/itemdetail.pl?item=11-1850" target="_blank">A Day At The Beach</a> from Country Cottage Needle Works. I am using the suggested colors but am stitching it on 16 count hand dyed aida. I am just not a linen kind of gal. I stitch because I love to and I just can't see well enough that linen is not a struggle. Here is my progress so far.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5PVPmMt7qgc/UP1o2VcQzAI/AAAAAAAAAQk/aooJMTehxHg/s1600/blog+1-21-13+004.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5PVPmMt7qgc/UP1o2VcQzAI/AAAAAAAAAQk/aooJMTehxHg/s320/blog+1-21-13+004.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
You really can't see the colors of the floss or fabric in this but trust me when I tell you it is looking good.<br />
<br />
I have been down with the stomach bug since Friday night but feeling alittle better today so will try to get some stitching in. I spent the morning winding floss on some cards and over the weekend (while lying on the couch) I read a great book. It's called Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay. I highly recommend it. It is a great read.<br />
<br />
Well I hope all of you are staying well and warm (it has turned freezing here). I am watching the Inauguration of President Obama and going to start stitching. Voted for him or not he is now the president for 4 more years and this is history (and I love history). I wish him well for all our sakes.<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful week and will be back soon!!!<br />
Hugs,<br />
Rose<br />

I have bought a lot of stash lately and will have to use some up lol. I am terrible at remembering to take pictures but now have my camera back (my daughter borrowed it for a trip to Seattle in <u>September!</u>) and will start the new year off right :) </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #990000;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #990000;">I am currently working on a wedding present for a dear friend and a biscornu for an exchange due out the middle of January. I have never made a biscornu before so I will keep you posted on my progress. I made 2 mug rugs and 8 ornaments but they were all gifts and no camera means no pictures. So sorry. I make ornaments for my husband's family every year and the mug rugs were for my mother-in-law and my boss. I have a 3rd one started so will post a picture when done. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #990000;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #990000;">For 2013 I plan on completing 1 panel of <i><b>Shores of Hawk Run Hollow</b></i> finish the biscornu for the exchange, the wedding present, and I just ordered the threads for <a href="http://www.123stitch.com/cgi-perl/itemdetail.pl?item=12-2711"><span class="itemlistingtitle subtlelinks">Baby It's Cold Outside - Cross Stitch Pattern</span></a> by Heartstring Samplery. I loved it as soon as I saw it and can't wait to start it! I also will be making ornaments and hope to start an ornament tree. I got the idea from Shari at <a href="http://sharissharings.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Shari's Sharings</a> She makes ornaments to decorate her ornament tree and uses them for last minute gifts. I realized this year that I have a HUGE stash of ornament patterns so I'd better get cracking!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #990000;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #990000;">Before 2012 ends let me leave you with a couple of pictures of our Christmas tree, 2 ornaments from a few years ago, my mom's nativity and the beautiful snow out side my window.</span><br />

Well first things first - the winner of my first ever give-a-way is (drum roll please) Maggee of <a href="http://stitchingdevotee.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Stitching Devotee</a>. Congratulations Maggee!! Please send me your snail mail address and I will get it in the mail ASAP.<br />
<br />
On the stitching front I am working on ornies and will post pics as soon as I can. <br />
<br />
I am getting ready for Thanksgivng!!!The turking and Tofurky are defrosting and the pies and in the fridge. Today is a "quick" (LOL) trip to the food store for the last minute fresh stuff, cleaning and hopefully some stitching. We will be a small but happy group this year. Me, DH, my younger daughter Devin and my older daughter Siobhan and her boyfriend Tom. Siobhan and Tom will get in late tonight so I'll stitch while I wait. We will have dinner around 3 since Siobhan and Tom have to visit his grandparents in the morning and have pie with his aunt after dinner. I just have to get used to sharing her (ugh) but I am glad to have them both for dinner!!! This is our 3rd Thanksgiving without my mom. I still miss seeing her at the table, although I know she is there (just can no longer see her).<br />
<br />
Wishing you all who are celebrating it, a wonderful Thanksgiving full of family, love and laughter!!<br />
<br />
Hugs<br />

I am so sorry I have been gone so long. I went back to work with a new boss and time just seems to have gotten away from me. I am glad to be back and you may not believe it but I will make time for me (and you). I haven't really stitched much either but now that Christmas is here (my favorite stitching time of the year) I am sure I will have some finishes to share with you VERY soon.<br />
<br />
First things first you really need to head over to <a href="http://victorianmottosamplershoppe.blogspot.ca/2012/11/25-days-of-christmas-and-25-give-aways.html" target="_blank">Victorian Motto</a> she is having an amazing Christmas give-a-way! You just won't believe it!!!<br />
<br />
Second I promised you a give-a-way. It may have taken me a while but I do try to keep my promises. I am giving away the pattern <a href="http://www.123stitch.com/cgi-perl/itemdetail.pl?item=07-2834" target="_blank">"Christmas Tea" </a>by Plum Street Samplers. It is one of my favorites! If you are interested just comment on this post. I will keep it open until November 20th. Good Luck everyone.<br />
<br />
Life here in the Christmas City has been crazy. We survived Super Storm Sandy. Schools were closed for a week and we were with out power for 4 days. That being said we were lucky. No real damage to our house. I have never seen the kind of damage we had around town. GIANT trees down everywhere. Roads closed. Still we have far less damage than our neighbors in New Jersey and New York. We also have a new puppy in the house. Max is 5 months old an into everything. I will post pictures as soon as I find my camera.<br />
<br />
Christmas starts in town next week. I <u><b>will</b></u> post pictures! I <u><b>will</b></u> stitch! I <u><b>will</b></u> post in my blog (not just sit back and read everyone else's)<br />
<br />
Hugs,<br />

It has been a really rough month in the Christmas City. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Our sweet Lady Mae at the age of 15+ took a turn for the worse and the cushings disease and cancer finally took it's toll on her (and us) and we had to help her on her way to the rainbow bridge. We had rescued her at the age of 3 and she was truly the sweetest, kindest, most easy-going dog! She accepted every person or dog we every brought home. She just loved everyone. We miss you Lady, there will never be another like you :(</span><br />

She was truly my daughter Devin's dog and Dev said she couldn't do it unless she had a dog to sleep with. Well Bailey and Jack wouldn't leave us so she started looking for a puppy. Two days later (Last Saturday) we met a transport truck that came from a rescue in Alabama and Max entered our lives!<br />

He is 10 weeks old and a papillon mix (mixed with what?? Who knows!). We saw his mom and brothers as people were picking up them too. His mom was 12 pounds and LONG legs! Max is 4 pounds 6 oz. and a sweetheart. He is getting along with the other dogs, eating, using his wee wee pads or going outside (NO accidents so far YAY!). The rescue group gets dogs from a kill shelter in Alabama, sends them to foster families and then puts them on petfinder.com. He was born in foster care and Devin spoke to a volunteer from the rescue and called the foster mom before accepting him. He is exactly as the foster mom described him (size, temperament, etc.). She called Wed. night and they had a transport headed our way leaving AL on Thursday, arrive in PA on Saturday morning. It was an air-conditioned truck (I'll admit I was worried but Devin was determined and she is almost 24 with a great job) and he came off healthy and happy. There were at least 15-20 families picking up their new family members and taking them to their forever homes. Welcome home Max!<br />
<br />
Now to share what little stitching I have gotten done.<br />
<br />
First is the slow progress on "Shores of Hawk Run Hollow". I went back to work and school started last Monday so I have just been to tired to stitch.<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Wow 52 followers! Welcome to all my new followers. I will make every attempt to post regularly and not disappoint! I was thinking of having my first ever give-a-way when I hit 50 so I guess I will spend this week figuring it out. Thank you all for you kind comments, my furry friends and I enjoy reading every one of them. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Our gazebo was a total loss :( However DH found a sturdy one on Craig's List and it is now sitting in the back yard waiting to be put up. He wants to bury cinder blocks at the corners and bolt it to them to keep it in place. I can only hope this works and it stays put LOL. It is so hot here today 94. UGH. I am so done with summer and ready for jeans and sweatshirt weather. I am hoping to go up to the camper for the weekend. It would be nice to get away.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Well now for the<i> Shores</i> update. I made lots of progress during our week long SAL!. I was really motivated. I finished block 1 and started block 2:</span></span><br />

Hello all. We are back from out vacation and time to post :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We went to our camper in the Pocono Mountains for 10 days. It was great! We didn't even have to turn the air conditioners on until mid week. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Our camper the first morning there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We went to Bushkill Falls and hiked to the falls. Very pretty but I understand it is much better after some rain. We really haven't had much rain except for an occasional fast moving thunderstorm.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

It was hot so we went swimming in the campground pool.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My daughters each came up to visit Devin and the dogs for a couple of days and Siobhan for an overnight. Always good to spend time together. The last night there was a terrible thunderstorm. Lots of lightening and wind and we lost power (lucky I brought a battery powered stitching lamp lol).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When we got home the next day we found this:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Shores block 1</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I hope to finish this block this week and then move on the block 2. About.com's stitching forum is having a SWAT (Stitch-week-a-thon) beginning Saturday. I hope to get a lot done. If you'd like to join in the fun here is a link to the forum <a href="http://forums.about.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?nav=messages&webtag=ab-crossstitch&lgnF=y" target="_blank">http://forums.about.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?nav=messages&webtag=ab-crossstitch&lgnF=y</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's a lot of fun and you can work on whatever you want. The forum members and very nice and always helpful. I hope you can join us for our SWAT. We post pictures at the beginning and of our progress. It is inspiring to see what we all get done in such a short amount of time. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I hope you are all staying cool and enjoying your summer - </div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I don't know how many of you remember but last year (maybe the year before) I thought I would try my first BAP and stitch <i>The Shores of Hawk Run Hollow.</i> Well I got a little overwhelmed and did not get far. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Pretty bad huh?!? I think the size of the fabric overwhelmed me. I started again today and WILL keep going. I love to read <a href="http://beckysc.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Becky's Bees</a> blog. Becky SC is amazing and she finished <i>Autumn at Hawk Run Hollow</i> by commiting to 1 block a month. I just started a small wedding gift but I have til the end of September so I am going to do at least 1 block a month until <i>Shores </i>is done. I plan on posting my progress. I have a weeks vacation next week so I plan on getting a lot of stitching done. My favorite forum over at <a href="http://forums.about.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?nav=messages&webtag=ab-crossstitch&lgnF=y" target="_blank">About.com</a> is having a SWAT (a stitch week along) in July so I should get some done then too! There is a really great group of stitchers on that forum (stop by and check it out)!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I changed some of the colors to match her tastes. She fell in love with sheep when she visited Ireland so sheep it had to be.
