Stitching with a Smile: June 2009

Stitching with a Smile!

Thoughts run around in my head. The negative thoughts bully the positive thoughts. They push, they shove and they like to be loud.

Positive thoughts don't push, they don't scream. Positive thoughts sing softly and need quiet to be heard.

Stitching quiets the bullies, lulls them, they need to rest. I can then hear the positive thoughts singing. Each positive thought gets one-on-one attention. Stitching brings order in the chaos.

So when I stitch I smile. You may not see the smile if you're watching, but it's there, always, on the inside.

Procrastination and then some!

Left the blogging world and did some stitching........just took forever (procrastination) to post. Also changed my picture up top from winter to summer (wish the real world worked that way!).

Finished the mining piece for my husband and had it framed. He's feeling a bit down due to the lay off.....hopefully this will encourage him when he gets to school.

Also finished this (my very first) biscornu. The pattern is from Olga at Olenka's Stitches blog. Having trouble with my computer and can't seem to link up (probably user error).

Thanks so stopping!
