Back from Hospital and some new Finishes

Its been such a long time since I posted. It has been a rough summer for me,being in the hospital four times since the middle of June. I keep getting congestive heart failure since my heart attack two years ago,which damaged my heart so I never know when it will hit...but it will not stop me from doing what I love,which is stitch and create..


♥  ♥♥***************************************************************♥♥♥

I just finished stitching this pretty..Its done on 32 count linen,with dinky dyes silk in Sapphire.It is edged with hand dyed vintage rick rack,and has a vintage calico
fabric back.The picture does it no justice..It is listed in my Stitchery Shoppe 




                                                                       




A Primitive stitchery I finished also...design by Blue Attic ©
Just bought a great new fall pattern from Brenda Gervais..can't wait to start it..

And last...a few pics of roses my Sister brought me in hospital




and a pic of my fuchsia from my yard

Being a child from a Family of Florists...my love of flowers 
shows in all I do. My gardens bring me so much joy and peace..
So I will be spending lots of time sitting out there and healing my body and soul

Holiday Stitching

Wow have not posted in a while. Its been hectic with Christmas Orders. Didn't get to stitch nearly 
enough and it makes me sad. I truly love to stitch. Maybe now that orders are under control I can stitch more. Dec 9th and have not purchased a gift yet! I swear every year this won't happen, yet time gets away from me and here I am again. Anyway here are two things I did stitch...

Keep stitching
Have a Great Week
