Ahhh, weekend
Well, I had a lovely weekend, if a bit short! This is the first weekend in quite a while that Glenn didn’t work one of the days - over Memorial Day, he worked Sunday *and* Monday. Can’t say we don’t need the money what with the house and all, but sometimes it’s just nice to relax together!
So, while I was relaxing, I did a bunch of stitching. Friday was the first day of the Inspirations SAL with Jean. I got a bit of stitching done - all of the border on page 1, plus some of the vine backstitch. It was very enjoyable, even though it’s on 40ct!

The picture’s pretty awful since I couldn’t find my camera, so I just scanned it in the Q-snaps. Well, now I know better ![]()
Saturday I stitched a freebie from the Sampler Girl, Summer in Tuscany. I came up with my own Crescent Colours for it, and used a piece of 28ct Zweigart I had lying around. Well, I guess I didn’t do a very good job, as the greens kinda faded into the background fabric.

And, finally, today I stitched on W. No piccie update for that, as by the time I decided to stop stitching, I was just too tired to fight with the scanner. Well, I hope everyone else had a lovely weekend, and had lots of stitching time, too!

I’m in a SAL also…mine is with Julie (Weathered Barn) and Rob (Coastal Stitching) Maybe we should all SAL together?! Because our SAL is on Fridays too! Let me know!

nice choices for your freebie — and isn’t it fun to pull out ’stuff’ from our very own stash??? How delightful.
Nice going on your start. Will be fun to keep dropping by your blog & watch your progress.

I already came and visit you yesterday but I didn’t leave a comment. As you guess with my new little enterprise, I’m in a hurry at moment. But I want to thank you for your encouragement. God bless you in all your needs and hope.
