BEEN BUSY--

Sewing and cleaning--
I got the top finished to the 2nd Jo Morton quilt--

so that means that this pile is 'gone'--
and it now looks like this--

and it is now all basted and I have even started the hand quilting on it--

remember I said--started!!!!!!
Miss Gracie seemed to think that about the time I started this--
it was time for her to get on my lap and to get some loving time!!!!

Notice the bird print for the outer border--

I also have that in the blue color --
so put it on the back of the quilt--
have had these two prints for a long time--
and now I can finally say I am happy to be able to use them in a project!!!!

Have done lots of counted cross stitch and you can see those on the other blog site--
just have bit more fill in on the snowman opps--I mean snowlady one--
and then just have Dec to do and that has been started--so I am on a "roll" there, too!!!

and I have been trying to do one big housework project at least every other day--
todays was cleaning the bathroom--yuck!!!
but Sundays was the kitchen--
and do you know that I found that I had a nice long counter in my kitchen?????

Here is one end of it--

and here is the other end of it!!!!
hey, now maybe I can bake some Christmas cookies????
ahhh--maybe not--guess who would want to eat them???????
here is a couple more pictures of the kitchen with the chickens back out--
instead of in a plastic bin sitting on the counter!!!!

What--you said I should be decorating for Christmas????
wellllll-there's lots of red in the kitchen--does that count?????

Have a fun stitchy week--
Hugs, Di and miss gracie
PS those kitties are growing like 'weeds'--

these two are my favorites--I think????
