Where Did January Go?

It's hard to believe it is February 3rd already. January went by so fast. Why is it as we get older, time seems to go by faster? The bright side, is that we are that much closer to winter ending--YAY!

I haven't stitched too much in the last couple of weeks. We are in our busy season at work now so I've been working some overtime. After having 4-1/2 months of reduced hours, it is nice to earn some extra money. I did manage to get a little further on my Hearts Left Behind Sampler.


That border took alot longer than I had thought it would. I'm happy how this is turning out.

I was lucky to win a blogoversary giveaway over on Margaret's blog.


Margaret sent me some beautiful fabric, fibers, magnets and a beaded pink angel. It will all be put to good use and I love it! Thank you Margaret!


This Friday, February 5, is National Wear Red Day. Please help raise awareness of Heart Disease. Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women in the U.S. You can go here for more information. Thank you.

Well that's all I have for now. I'm looking forward to the weekend. My good friend, Joan, is on her way home right now for the weekend. Plus, I plan on doing some finishing this weekend.

Have a great rest of the week!

A New Start

Missy graciously answered my request and sent me her pattern for "Hearts Left Behind" to borrow. I received it on Friday and started it on Monday. Thank you again Missy!


It is stitched with DMC and I am using a piece of 32ct. Belfast that was coffee/tea dyed. Here is how far I am tonight.


I am going to change the design a little and put my dad and my mom on the one sampler.

Thanks for visiting my blog and for all the wonderful comments.

Happy Stitching!
