Happy New Year

Happy New Year to all!! 

I have updated my CJC 2013 Stitching list and completed my CJC WIP 2013 list so I am ready for the challenge. I won't start stitching and posting pics until the weekend as we are headed to Amarillo for a few days.

My new card blog is set to publish tomorrow on 1 Jan.  Stop by if you like.
www.tea-n-cards.blogspot.com  This is where I will be posting one handmade card a day for 2013. 



Be safe, be happy!!

Happy Boxing Day!!

Good Morning!!  I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas Day.  We got the kids up at 7am to open presents, all three seemed very pleased with the bounty left by St Nick.  We spent a cozy day at home watching the rain and snow fall.  Yes, we had a White Christmas in Wichita Falls, rare but it happens.  Now we will have ice for until the weekend.  This may be all the winter we get -- usually only lasts a week or two then we are back to warm weather.  Although, I am secretly wishing that we have lots of cold chilly days like I experienced as a kid growing up in Delaware. 

Managed to get some photos of my latest stitching pieces to share with you.  They have been sitting around for a several days/weeks waiting for me to break out the camera.

Thanks for stopping.  When you get a chance you must visit Samplers and Santas.  It is a beautiful blog, she has several freebie designs available and I just find it a pleasant place to see. 

Enjoy!!

This little piece I stitched up for Quilts for Older Children and Adults yahoo group.   I have one more piece to finish out the year for them.  I have already volunteered to stitch four more pieces for 2013. 

As for blog news, I have decided to start a new blog dedicated to my card making and I have challenged myself to make a card a day for 2013.  This blog will be dedicated to my stitching and my basket making.  So be on the look out for my new blog in the new year.

Happy Holidays!!

Hello Everyone -
