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!

It was a GOOD Friday!!

Spring is now officially here (there may still be some snow - but that did not stop us!).

The bikes are all lubed up and are on the road! Now, we just need slightly warmer weather so that we can actually take them to town. Soon...........

Yes, I'm a stitcher by winter and a biker by summer. Go figure?! (I have the red one, a Yamaha Classic 650 and dear husband has the silver Yamaha Custom 1100).

This one is for Oma and Opa

Easter photos of your grandson.

Even though he's now 16, the Easter Bunny still insists on dropping off a basket and, as always (that bunny likes this joke!), drops some eggs into his boots.

Happy Easter!

Eating Jelly Beans and Crafting

What fun! Made a whole bunch more of the containers for easter/spring. Some will come to work with me, others will be shipped out to some very special people! Can't say who.....will be a surprise!

Now I need to clean the mess.....

Have a Happy Easter!

Easter Goodies

My sons easter basket is done.....and a week ahead! And with handmade 'sour cream' containers filled with goodies (chocolate, jelly beans and left over valentines).

I found the instructions here:

Although it's also on other stampin' up sites too.

Just noticed.....left the price tag on the basket (dollar store!). Will have to remove that before Sunday!

Have a good week!

Ta Da!

All done! Finished the stitching yesterday and started cutting. Completed the cutting today. So excited, didn't even wash and iron before posting!

Have a good Monday!

Ugggh!

This was stitched - WAS.

I had to totally unstitch my greek crosses because, get this, I wove the thread at the beginning and end into the front - FRONT - and stitched in the back - BACK !

So this is the result of 1/2 hour of work.

Uggh!
