Well Hello There

It has been awhile since my last post. What have I been up to? Not buying stash that's for sure **Chuckle** Actually I have been making up for lost time in that department.

Here is just a sample of the stash I bought, there was also a few things for an exchange so of course I can not share with you that picture. My favorite thing is the Book from Black Bird Design A school Girls Work. The information in this book is just so amazing. It baffles my mind to think that young girls were so gifted with needlework. Forgive the light in this photo, it was taken early this morning before I headed out to the beach with a friend and her son visiting from Virginia

From A Stitchers Ramblings

This is a photo of some seals near the Tide Pools we visited in Half Moon Bay. We almost missed these guys, they were just lounging by the water and they looked like big rocks. Every time I come to the ocean I am reminded at just how amazing this wonderful place I live in really is. My friend and her family moved to Virginia last year and she is home for our girlfriends wedding so today I wanted to take her and her little boy to the Tide Pools. We had a great time and he enjoyed looking at the "snakes" and "turtles" obviously he is fascinated with snaked and turtles so everything looked like one to him LOL.

I am coming along on my exchange piece I really am enjoying watching it come together, lets just hope I can get it finished by the 15th.

Do you have any plans for this long weekend? I am going the first college game of the season Friday night, attending a wedding on Saturday, going to the local art and wine festival on Sunday and would you believe it my work is closed on Monday so that day I am devoting to ME for stitching time unless the Hubby has plans which I am hoping he does not... Whatever you decide to so I hope you have a wonderful and safe weekend.

Thank you for your visits and lovely comments. Please do stop in again.
