One of My RR Pieces


Hello Everyone!

So I will be starting the HAED Wicca pattern on January 19th. In the meantime, I am working on two different Round Robin projects. I am getting nearly done on one of them and wanted to post a picture to show my progress so far. It's my EMS Lil Stitch Devil with Bobbin piece. My son is so cute. He was a Lil Devil for Halloween, so when he looks at the pattern, he asks me "Is that me, Momma?" I think it's so funny that at 2 years old he is making those kinds of associations. Anyway, with this RR, there are 4 of us. Each person selected a theme. We stitch a pattern for that theme on one section of the fabric and then mail it to the next person. And then when we get the new fabric in the mail, we stitch a pattern for that person's theme on a section and so on. I don't know if this is normally how the round robins go with the whole theme thing or not, but this is how we decided to do it. I just love it bcuz by the time this RR is finished, I will have a finished piece arrive in the mail that has 4 Lil Stitch Devils that have been stitched by 3 of my friends and I, two of which are in Canada and one in Florida and me in AZ. On the other RR, when my piece gets back to me all finished, I will have a piece that has been stitched by 4 different people in 4 different countries, me being the only one in the US. I just think that is so cool!

Anyway, without further delay, here is my progress on my Lil Devil!

My Mom LOVES Her Aprons!!!


Hi Everyone!!! Between Christmas and New Year's, my husband and the kids and I went to TX to visit my Mom and my Grama. I gave my Mom her aprons. She absolutely LOVES them!!! And she was so surprised! She said she knew I was making something for her but she had no idea that it would be aprons. She has been wanting aprons for a long time. And she was thrilled! She is so funny. She said she is going to take them to work when she goes back on Monday to show everyone. Maybe I'll get some orders! That would be so great! Anyways, here are some pictures of my Mom with her new aprons. Shhhhh ... don't tell her I posted these ... she would probably freak out and say they are terrible pictures of her.
