March Madness Update for 3-11-2012

Managed to get a few stitches in Joy, Love, Peace from JBW designs yesterday afternoon.  I really like all these little Christmas trees that I have been stitching this year they will make some wonderful ornaments and they are a pleasure to stitch.  This is one of my CJC 2012 projects.

March Madness Update 2-8-2012

I missed a few days of the stitching madness to make baskets.  Oh well, I could not help myself I just had to get a little weaving done.  So now I have three baskets waiting to be finished.

Thursday I picked up a new project (bad girl) for the Quilts for Older Children and Adults stitching group.  Our group leader Jeneen was ready to ship squares off to the quilter when she realized she only had 19 squares and needed one more.  So guess who is stitching EMS Baby Rooster?  Me!!  This one has a very quick turn around, I must have it in the mail before the 30th.  No problem as long as I leave my baskets alone.  Thank goodness it is Spring Break which means I can get some early morning stitching done while the kiddos are still in bed.

Today should be a good stitching day, hubby will be at the basketball championships, I have plenty of leftovers from yesterdays dinner and rain is in the forcast so I can't work outside.

March Madness 3-3-12 Update

Today I was able to stitch on my Snowman from Gazette 94.  So happy to get some of his head and his scarf done.  He will make a great ornament for a family member.

Joining in the March Madness

I thought I would join Measi on her "March Madness" journey of stitching on something different each day and attempting to post about it.  This evening I pulled out Country Cottage Needleworks "Ladybugs and Bumble Bees" to give it a little love.

New Baskets

Here are two new baskets I finished over the weekend.  The fruit basket is twice the size of the flower basket--but I think it is a little small for fruit.  Both of these will be end of the school year teacher gifts.
