I get in such a crafty mood this time of year and this year I'm in an especially stitchy mood. I managed to finish these prairie schooler Ornaments and hang them on my tree. Yeah! And then I didn't want to drop $30 on an elf on the shelf so I made my own ...double Yeah! So enjoy the pics and I'm back to the crafting table this weekend...stay tuned. Till next time yunz crazy guys....
Just a short post to show what goodies I got at our local Habitat Restore.....check out the cross stitch patterns for less than $2.00 not to mention the cool dowel tree for my ornies.... Lucky me! Till next time yunz crazy guys!

Here is the pattern for the Harry Potter Crest I'm working on: PATTERN,
If you check out this site, you will find tons of Harry Potter cross stitch also. Really nice patterns. When finished, mine should look like this....
Well got to spend a great evening with my lovely stitching lady friends and working on my Hogwarts crest and tho I'm not too far on it, this stitching is going along at a nice pace. And just for the record, it's a free pattern on the Internet. I believe it's from a site called littlemojo but you can also google Hogwarts crest cross stitch pattern. I'm changing the bottom left of the pattern as most of the crests are shown as a yellow background and the pattern is calling for antique blue.
So with that said, I'm back to finish a little more stitching till bedtime. Till next time yunz crazy guys!
Well, this is my first International Hermit Weekend post. (see sidebar if you want to participate too) I was supposed to post by Tuesday, but well....I'm a procastinator as you can see. I promise to do better next month.
Unfortunately and as always.....Sir Echo got in the way. He insists on being right in front and on top and in the way of every stitching project I do. And he always seems to know exactly what part of the pattern I'm working on so he can sit on it....which by the way is the 2011 Littlehouse Needleworks Ornament collection.
Then he has the nerve to look at me like, "yeah...well...whadda you lookin' at??"
So, that was my third weekend of the month Hermit post.....I'm sure there will be alot more of these as I "hermit" alot with my stitching.
So, till next time, yunz crazy guys!
Hubby always says I should keep the things I make instead of giving them away as they are so nice. But I have great joy in giving things to people who I know will appreciate the gift.
I have a dear stitching friend who is going through some health treatments right now and I thought I would cheer and surprise her with a little something to let her know I'm thinking about her and praying for her.
So, I made her this altoid tin scissor box with a magnetic insert.
I also added this super easy needle keep. I actually bought one when I was on vacation once and just figured out the pattern on my own. So so easy and great stitcher gifts.
The Holidays have wiped me our craft-wise but that doesn't mean I'm stopping...just slowing down a bit and doing some crafting for me!
I've been anxious to show this Junk Journal I made for my niece so grab a cup of your favorite hot beverage, sit sound, turn up the volume and enjoy 5 minutes of relaxation while you take a peek at my first junk journal made with my new Cinch binding tool that Santa brought..ENJOY!
