I have been stitching

sporadically over the course of the week. For some reason, I really wasn't in the mood to stitch much last night and ended up going to sleep very early. I did much better tonight. I finished the second bird motif and a bit more of the left hand border on white wedding.















After stitching on WW for a little while, I started Brittercup's Brotherly Love.














I am stitching this as a gift for a friend at work who is expecting her second little boy sometime this month. I thought I had until the end of the month, but after today noone everyone thinks the little guy will be here before too long. I plan on stitching the names and birthdays of both boys on the bottom of the piece. I have gotten the crook thingy and the cat's butt done:)






I have a huge list of things to do over the long weekend. There are bunch of housekeeping things to do and groceries to be got. I should have gone grocery shopping tonight, but the thought of hauling them through the downpour was quite unpleasant. So I went home and took a nap instead:) Before getting groceries in the morning, I also plan to get myself a back to school manicure and pick up a fan for our excercise room. I also have some good stitching goals that I would like to accomplise. In particular, I would like to get half of parts 8 and 9 done on my Chatelaine mystery:) Hope everyone else has a lovely weekend.

wow, the wedding sampler is growing now!!! I love Part 9 of M9 - not a ton of stitching, and the beads can be done later - LOL!

Meanwhile, DH posted off a belated bday giftie to you today - thanks for sending your wish list - it helped me so much! I am just sorry you are receiving it late :-(

The Britty Kitties are all so cute. What a wonderful idea to stitch it for a birth! :)

Your progress on WW is beautiful! I have that Brittercup in my stash and need to stitch it. Great idea to use it for a birth!
