    C is for Castle
    C is for Castle! Got this done over the weekend and it's stitched on 32 ct. Hand-Dyed Jobelan and the color is Summer Sky. It is so light blue that it isn't shown justice here. Also, there are white C's up above the castle, but since the fabric is light they don't show up, not even holding it in person. I should have done the white C's in shades of blue. Now on to D, wonder what D is for!

    Zebra's


    This is an eye glasses holder. My Walmart store has had these before Christmas in it's Optical Department. There are different kind of animals, a Giraffe, horse, an Old Man, a fish and several other type. This was on my wish list for Christmas and since I didn't get one then I put it on my list for my Birthday in January, nope didn't get it then either. Last night as I was on my way out I saw them sitting there and they were getting low. I first got the Giraffe already to leave and looked and saw a Zebra, since my love for horses and a Zebra is technically a horse I exchanged it. lol BTW those are not my glasses they are reading glasses 2.25 and are women reading glasses, but since I can't see the 32 count good enough with my glasses I put these over top mine and waa la I can see the 32 count.

    Chief Red Cloud 03-14-08
    Week 45 I am finished with 3 pages now and am doing the Happy Dance. YAY!!! Woohoo!!! I can't believe that I have finally finshed 3 pages. Sure does feel good too. I am currently over 3/4 done. Page 4 is less then a fourth and have already made progress on it. Chief Red Cloud's face is finished.
    .
    I didn't get to post yesterday as I took my Mom out to visit one of her older brothers, then we went to WalMart to grocery shop. It poured the rain when we got out of the car to the entrance and both looked like drowned rats by the time we got inside. Nothing like shopping while your wet. lol The rain did prevent a lot of people coming out but it was still fairly croweded in the store. While in the store we ran into several relatives, the only place I see any of the relatives anymore is in Wally World and I have bunches of them too.
    .
    My snow is all gone now, so sad. Thursday it was so warm out that I drove the car through the automatic car wash and drove around with the window down, felt like spring, no coat no nothing. Just a perfect day, then Friday it rained. Never fails when I pay money to wash the car it rains. grrr But Thursday ended my snow, oh well it is time.
    .
    Thanks for stopping in, hope you all have a great stitching week!

    B is for Butterfly
    B is for Butterfly! I actually finished this last Sunday, March 2 and I am just getting around to posting the photo. So far everything is going good, but eventually I know when I go to do the hardanger part I will need all the help I can get. Below is A & B on the same fabric 32 ct. Cream Lugana.

    Chief Red Cloud 03-07-08


    Week 44 and look how close I am to being finish with page 3. YAY!!!! I know I will start page 4 this coming week. So exciting to see the end in site. Page 4 isn't a full fourth of the project, it is a lot less. YAY!!!! In the small photo you can see just how much is left, it shouldn't take much more then one evening.
    .
    I had to take my girls (my Yorkies) for their yearly shots on Monday. They both did extremely well with the complete exam and the injections. It was so hot in the room that I had to take Peajib outside to get cooled off while they examined Izzy. Izzy met a Schnauzer and she streched her nose out and barely touched his nose, it was just a friendly hello. Izzy would have loved to have gotten to play but I am very leary of other dogs around mine, maybe I am over protected.
    .
    Thursday I took my Mom over to her Heart Dr. and he said her heart is about the same and he thought most of the problems now with the shortenss of breath etc... is coming from her Emphysema. Got the oxygen place to bring her a couple more oxygen tanks today as she finished one tank yesterday and working on the last tank now. So we are set now for awhile.
    .
    We are gettin hit by a snow storm, ice storm right now. I snapped a photo of the SandCherry Tree in my front yard. It's just too cool to see all the snow and ice on the branches.
    .
    It's Friday so that means it's Sci-Fi Friday on the Sci-Fi Channel. YAY!! But I think it's down to just one show now "Stargate Atlantis". I miss the old Sci-Fi Fridays, for 3 hours you had Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis and Battlestar Galetica. Oh well everything changes.
    .
    Thanks for stopping by and peeking into my little corner of the world. It my not be very exciting, but that's ok.
