Have been going thru needlework and quilting things. Trying to organize better so I can find something when I want it. this is a HUGH job since I have my stuff plus a bunch of UFO's from my mother, grandmother and great grandmother also. One half of the downstairs is almost done. this is the cross stitch, TV side. the biggest thing was getting all my threads in one spot. (under the coffee table in plastic boxes). Felling good about the better organization. Quilt side of downstairs is still a mess but that is for another time.
Need to start work on my "Margaret Cottom" sampler. Needs to be finished by Sept.
Still working on my "Baltimore Bunnies" (by Bunny Hill designs). Mine will be totally different though. I am embellishing the blocks and I must say they are looking good.
Know what I am designing embroidery block wise for next year for a BOM.
Jennifer and I are trying to get all my patterns in paper form. Ready to start selling farther out than Colorado Springs.
I have been trying to grow avacado trees from the avacado seeds..Have one actual plant and about 8 hopefuls.
Don't necessarly have a green thumb but enjoyiong this.
For my applique friends, my favorite online store is Honeybee Fabrics. Melissa is so nice and always takes care of me with my non techie things I can't make happen. She also has an awesome amount of really good applique patterns.
That's it for a while. Back to organizing.
