your daisy design is lovely. I,too, love the slogan you are currently stitching

[Lizzieh]

What a wonderful, resourceful hubby you have.

That is such a great slogan, I'm sure your sister will be very happy when she gets it.

Have you had a chance to try out the Hardanger yet? I always feel like I should learn it being Norwegian and all but it looks so complicated. At my dads there is a drawer full of huge table clothes and runners in hardanger which my nan made. I wish she was still alive, then I could make her teach me

good luck with your project

[Charmed]

Its coming along great I love this design, might have to see if I can track it down myself and add it to the already huge 'to do' list

[pamelam]

Great work on your projects

This slipped by me some...

Yeah, I agree with the PO box. I would rather buy stash too. I thought about one when I was starting out writing to my penpals, but...I would rather buy stuff than spend on a PO box. I don't think you have to worry on this site, so long as you hand it over in a PM. Posting on the threads is never a good idea though. And even if someone does come looking for you (I can't imagine why unless they're on a road trip and are passing by when their car breaks down and their cell phone dies and they need to borrow a phone) we're mostly female so I'm pretty sure your hubby could offer more than enough protection for you. I mean to say, in my experiance with people on here, they're lovely and you have no reason to fear them.

CONGRATS on your 100th post!!!!!

Your WIP is looking amazing! Setting a set posting day for it may be a good idea. I should do that...

And awwww what a sweet hubby!!!

[Nachstenliebe]

I agree that $110 could buy a lot of sweet stash!
Congrats on your 100th post... but by the time I saw it, it is now 186! lol You've been busy!
Great work on the cross-stitch..
What a great hubby!

Okay so yet again no stitch last couple of days but i have two days ahead of me to get some stitching done...we'll see how far I get!!

I am so excited...my hubby has taken his certification test and he is like 95% he has passed...and..he was really worried about getting a job...he has been hired at diff hosp than I work but in the same town...its a PRN job..meaning that its just as they need him not full time or part time..but they said he should get hours every week...just they won't offer him any benefits...he is on my ins so this is fine..plus since he does not get the benefits usually they give him a little more $$ plus...it is opposite pay weeks than i am on..so we will always have a paycheck...as of now we are planning on saving his paychecks...since we are used to living on my income alone while he was in school..to add to our house fund that we have been working on!! Finally another step towards our future together!

I have found this forum just too addictive and find myself spending more time on here than I do stitching haha its just great to talk to people who are also into stitching...

as of now i am signing off..so that i can stitch for a while!!


hope this finds you all well and I am planning on posting an update pic on tuesday which will be my new posting day!!

o i downloaded and printed the you melt my heart as I love penguins...but it has 91 floss colors!!:shock: so i will have to do that at some other time....when i have more of a floss stash!!!

Not at all as pretty as some of your works but I'm starting to feel a little more confident I'm not having to frog with every color change haha!!

Take care all!!

[karen4bells]

Looking very nice!! Love that saying too! Keep up the good work

[Angel]

Oh yay for more stash. I'm sorry about your friends poor dog though

[Lizzy]

Its looking good and I love the saying

So sorry for the dog and your friend

[Rose]

It looks really nice. I love all of the color changes. So cute and the saying is a favorite of mine.

[~threadbear~]

Like I said, I have this on my fridge and it always makes me smile, so I'm really enjoying seeing it brought 'to life' in stitching like this.
