OH HAPPY DAY--

 It's a Happy Day for '2' reasons--

First it's Mothers Day-


and Second--I am hopefully over the terrible allergies!!!

I started feeling some better on Wednesday and each day it has gotten better--along with plus a little  of my 'mo-jo' is back--

I did get this months mini embroidery finished from Jenny--

I love anything with hats on it--

One day last week I was 'window' shopping for a certain project I was working on-and I found the perfect fabric--but--I talked myself out if it cause of the price--well --the very next day--Missouri Quilts had it on sale--so I couldn't push that 'pay' button fast enough--

But now--you have to wait to see which project this is for???

I got this month's Woven Wreath block done too-

I do enjoy working on these each month--and doing my own color 'thing'!!!

And I am happy to say that Friday I was able to stitch a baby blanket all together--



Now to start another one--and look what my friend in NY sent me for my birthday--

3 more prints of baby blankets--right on!!!

And I got another little sweater finished--


Also that darn Missouri quilts had a sale on the batting I use--and I was getting low--so my funds, also went lower and I did an order--

Oh and one spool of thread--my hand quilting white thread was getting low--the brand I wanted, they were out of stock on--so had to get  a different one--hopefully they are all about the same!!!

**************'
A mystery--
yesterday on the way to get the bus to go get groceries--I checked my mail box--which you need a key for--and I had a catalog from Connecting Threads in it--so decided to leave it in the box and get it out when I got back from shopping--went shopping came home put everything away and went down to pick up the mail--only--there was nothing in the box--no catalog--WHAT??????  I did not take it out and I had already unloaded the tote bags I took shopping, so I knew it wasn't there--SO--I will have to see what the office has to say about it on Monday--??????

**************

Here is a cooking question for you???  Do you rinse your rice before you cook or steam it???
I never have--until my daughter mentioned she was doing it--and then I did read the back of my rice package and it does tell you how to do it also--What--where I have I been ???  So  today I did the rinse--and what a difference it made!!!!

**************

I WISH EVERY WOMAN A HAPPY DAY TO DAY--WHETHER YOU 'MOTHER'D ' A CHILD OR  A PET OR SOMEONES ELSE'S CHILD--YOU ARE LOVED--
HUGS, DI
Women sure do 'wear' alot of hats--don't we!!!!

Do you have a 'favorite' Mother's Day story???
I always get 'cheated' as when I get my birthday cards a couple days before Mother's day-it also says--Happy Mother's day!!!!

Lol. It a got tickled on how you got cheated out of 2 cards, Di. It is hard when birthdays are near holidays. So glad to hear you found the perfect fabric and on sale to boot. Lots of pretties are in the works. I hope you have a great week. Hugs.

So pleased you’re feeling better.
I love the woven blocks you’re making and another sweet cardigan.
Some great purchases. Look forward to seeing what you’ll make with them..

Looks like you've been busy with projects! Pretty new fabric from Missouri Star, too. I really like how you're stitching the Woven Wreaths in your own color choices. Hope you solve the mystery of the missing catalogue!

So happy to hear your allergies have gone into remission, at least for now and you are ready to get back to your normal routine. You got lots done last week. Happy stitching this week.
