The backstitching and beading are done. I have decided this was my last stocking. But…my oldest grandson is going to be a daddy, so I have to make one for his baby. Then I was told someone else I gave a stocking to is pregnant, so now I have 2 more to do.

Love the Posy card.

I agree, it’s not always worth the time, effort, and expense to fix up for sale.

I got a text from my oldest granddaughter today. Her highschool is having a PowWow and she is going to be selling some of her beading at it.

I’m happy for her for the chance to make some money, but also the opportunity to associate with other Indigenous People at school.

Wonderful start.

Poor Squeaky. I hope he’s feeling better. It’s a good thing I spend a lot of time watching my cats. Earlier this week it looked like Tiger vomited up a clown….or at least part of a clown.

Boring

It’s starting to come to life as I do the backstitching.

I haven’t really been here in a while and a lot has happened. I’m going to start with good news.

My oldest grandson is going to become a daddy this year…make me a great-grandmother. I’ve told them, my name will be GiGi.

I’ve never seen that stitch used on the heart. It’s wonderful.

All your work is lovely, love the heart most.

They are lovely!

I’ve been working on a stocking which I offered to my son’s fiancé’s new little niece. Now I do the backstitching.

I use a fine tip sharpie on the plastic ones.

I’ve only once found one rubbing off, so rewrote before it completely rubbed off.
