Hello readers. I have had much going on in my personal life so my computer time is very limited. I do see things slowing down very soon so hopefully I can keep up with my blog. Since my last visit I have had some stitching news to share.My online stitching community, Needleworkers' Haven, had a lovely Valentine Exchange. I received the nicest package in the mail from a member at Needleworkers'

Hello readers. Now that my friend has received her Valentine's Day Exchange package I can go ahead and post the Valentine I stitched for her. This was an exchange offered in my stitching community Needleworkers' Haven. I had so much fun getting to know the person I was assigned to. Actually we exchanged with one another. Wendy, you are a sweetheart and I look forward to visiting with you at NH

Hello readers! Yesterday I finished a little freebie from Find Stitch called Valentine Heart. I stitched it up in a day. I really love the way it came out. This is for my daughter for her birthday coming up on the 11th. Just one of a couple designs I am doing for her.I also have to share a little story with you. Once I finished this heart my little 2 year old Granddaughter had to hold it. She was

I know. I'm a tad bit late in my greeting. Unfortunately I had another computer crash and lost everything. I have been so bummed over that. But the good news is that I am slowly getting things back up and running. We are definitely going to looking into getting an external hard drive. My backup files I had on a flash drive were lost in the process. No one seems to be able to really tell me why

I am so sorry about being absent from my blog again. Things in my personal life have been, shall we say, hectic. LOL So much going on that keeps me very busy. I have had several deaths in the family of close friends and an uncle of mine to deal with. Makes one feel very sad when so many happen at the same time. My thoughts and prayers are with my very dear friends in their time of grief and

Hello readers! I wanted to share with you about a new project I am doing for myself. I have some wonderful stitching friends from Canada who are going to stitch on my project and I on theirs. We are doing a Christmas Tree Skirt Round Robin (RR). I love working on mine as it is all teddy bears, one of my most favorite things to collect. The skirt when finished will look great under my tree. The

Let me fill you in on what has been going on.In my personal life I have had lots going on. My husband and I had both of our grown children, a daughter-in-law and two grandchildren (16 mos. & 4 mos.) living in our

Good morning stitching friends. I hope your day today is blessed in all you do. I thought I would talk about my online stitching community that I own. Hope you don't mind some advertising. LOLBack in late 2000 I opened an online stitching community to meet new friends and stitchers from all over the world. When I first opened my little community was called Shelley's Stitching & Stuff. I met so

Well, I am finally catching up to the times by opening a blog to share my needlework projects as well as my love for needlework. My two favorite needle arts are cross-stitch and crochet. I learned crochet when I was in junior high from my Home Economics teacher. My first project was an adorable green worm bookmark. I was so proud of it. Coming from a large family (I had six siblings) my parents
