I WONDER--IF THE WEATHER READS--

the newspaper or listens to the TV station to see what they, say it will do--and then 'LAUGHS'????

It is summertime in Florida and we have heat and humidity in Florida in the summer time--but I hear we are also setting heat records this year--all I can say is--the 'weather' is in charge here--not the weather men--now this heat does something to my body (as well as the cold) actually it is more the air-conditioning--I have to keep turning it on and off--cause this is how my body feels today--


 I ache in places today--I did not even know I had!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But I do keep myself busy--at least I try--

I got this months Heart block done in Yellow--


and talking about hearts--here is this week's heart block--


This one was a fun one to do---

And here is last week's Country block--


When I was growing up we had a black/brown collie-German shepherd named Rex (he looked like a collie-except his long nose!!) and so I thought of Rex the whole time I appliqued this dog!  He was a great dog and he died in my Senior year of high school

And here is where I am on the wool Mr. Jack mystery blocks--


 I still need to do button eyes, mouths, stems and leaves and stars and finish the black cat--I added the black cat--he is talking to the owl in the mystery story--so thought he would be cute here too!!

And I got another set of the Christmas embroidery's done from Melisa--


I have started on the 3rd set and will work on that set this afternoon while I watch the NASCAR race--and she has given a 4th set to do--and I need to get them traced off!!


I got some new Christmas prints in for my Christmas hearts and did get some more appliqued-but me forgot to take a photo--opps!!

and here is a second group of Christmas prints I got in this week--this set I ordered from a new to me company online--that I actually seen on Facebook--I don't order from Facebook ads, unless I know the company already--but for whatever reason this one seemed to have great reviews and you can order 1/4 yard cuts --which is great for me and most companies now you have to order at least 1/2 yd cuts--so I took a chance--and I love all the fabrics I got and I ordered on a Tuesday and had my order by Saturday--WOW!!
here is some other's I got in the order--



The 2 baby prints are going in a birthday gift box!
The name of the Company is--Mended Hearts

And I bought some grapes this week--and look at this one--

Very strange shape!!!!

ENJOY THE WEATHER WHERE EVER YOU ARE--WHETHER HOT OR COLD--CAUSE--IN A COUPLE MONTHS IT WILL BE THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU HAVE NOW--RIGHT!!!
THINKING OF EACH OF YOU WHO READ THIS POST--HUGS, DI

Aquí en España hace un calor insoportable, donde mejor estoy es en mi casa cosiendo o tejiendo.
El bloque de tonos amarillos me ha gustado mucho y las telas que has comprado son preciosas. BESICOS.

The weather can certainly make you feel aches and pains. I hope you start feeling better soon. It is always a joy to visit you. You have the cutest projects going on and I am so grateful that you have been stitching the Country Christmas doodles. Love Mr. Jacks Mystery blocks.
Hmmm favorite ice cream- Well it only comes out in the winter time- it is Mayfield's Snow Cream. Have a great week, Di.

The weather in most of the US hasn't been fun, too hot/too wet/too dry. Hope you are staying comfortable and getting lots of stitching done. Love your yellow heart blocks and your new fabrics. Happy stitching.
