Another ufo completed!!!







I have finished another cross stitch picture.

I started this in December 2007 on our trip to

visit our daughter in Namibia.

I am in awe to how everything comes together and

how the colors blend so well. Then finishing it with the

black thread makes it look so cute.

Thank you too all who design these cross stitch pattern.

My Dad!!

Dad passed away on the 15th May 2008 and at last
his suffering is over.

I have also had a knee operation and am recovering nicely.
I have 5 more weeks on crutches and then I will be able to get
back in the normal way of life.
Walking with these crutches are not for me. Was born clumsy. Thought
having an extra leg will work faster but no it is just plain terrible. hehehehe
I do get some work done though sitting around all day. Will post pictures soon.
Take care and hugs.

Embroidery at last!!


At last I have had some time to do
a bit of embroidery. Had to make
some blocks for a country friendship
quilt and did this but it is too dainty
for the quilt and will use it later on
for another quilt I have going.

Nature is so special!

  Matthew grew this rose from a cutting. And now she is rewarding him for taking good care of her! Slowly l am getting the back stitching do...
