Seven

Count them, seven stitches. That's the sum total I got to put in on my next project. It was a very busy day yesterday. It's cold and foggy here today, so I suspect I'll get a few more stitches in.
****Edited****evidently I cannot count! There's 8 of those little buggers.

My friend Diane was delighted with her julbock. She loved it. It was fun to see the reaction on her face when she saw it. We attended a NARFE meeting on identity theft. It was very eye opening, even though I thought I knew alot about it. We then went to a local Mexican restaurant for lunch. It was very, very good.

Hope everyone has a great day, and weekend.

Never in a Million Years

I never thought I would ever stitch this design. Never say never, especially when a friend is involved. Diane was thumbing through my JCS ornament issues one day and happened upon this design. She said that was one she really wanted me to stitch for her. My, oh my, let's just say this was not one of my favorites from the 2004 Issue. I'm gonna have lunch with her tomorrow, and will present the ornament to her. I have to say it was a fun stitch and worked up quickly. Now I just hope she likes it. What do you think? Do you know anyone else who has stitched this design? Kudos to Rae Iverson of Moss Creek Designs, Inc. for designing it. I used the recommended fibers and 28ct Platinum cashel.
