BUSY DAY

In the sewing room today--
first on the list was to get --
not one--but two--
of the mitten blocks done--
you see-last block was stockings and there was 2 of those--
so we have to have '2' kids with mittens to go with those '2' stockings,
Right???
and here is all 3 of the first blocks--
Ps--don't you like how I am using one of my quilts for  a design wall???
I did have some 'fun' with the mittens--
in wrong direction sewing--
but we got it all straightened out in the end--

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

shortly after lunch while on herE the first time--
out power went out--
so I could not go back to sewing--
I really needed to get 2 boxes ready for shipping tomorrow anyways--
and in order to find the right box for all the baby sweaters--
I had to  unload the one holiday box I had with Valentines, St Patty's, and Easter in it--
and in doing so--
look what I found--
Yep--another UFO--
so--it is on the table to be dealt with next!!!

And in looking for something else--
I 'refound' these  3 counted cross stitches--
2 of them needed to be totally framed off--
this one --
and this one--
but this one--
just needed the back piece done up--
Now all '3' are ready for displaying next January--
as I will be putting away the snow items in the next couple days and--
decorating for Valentines day--

I also found these '2'--embroidery snowpeople hiding--
 in the Christmas fabric bin--
so we matched them up to some fabric--
not sure if they will be pillows or wall hangings yet--
so they go in the pile with the Valentine hearts!!!

Enjoy the moments-di

You have UFO's hiding everywhere! You found the hearts just in time. I'm going to have to do some serious stitching when I get home to catch up with you.

I remember the snow people embroideries - so cute.
What will the hearts end up as, I wonder :)
Hugs

Hopefully I will get my mittens done soon. Yours are really cute. I like all of your stitcheries! I know--that isn't a real word but it works for me. The hearts are perfect for this time of year.
