Cross Stitching and Flosstube


 image from Pinterest


I have been very busy hooking and stitching this week

My phone is nearly done for
replacement should arrive tomorrow 
then I will share photos

*****

I have been on a shopping spree like no other
watching flosstube videos with pen and paper in hand
I even ventured into my local needlework shop today
(I won't be going back)

My goal is to stitch all the smalls
I have no desire to have framed samplers
(I love them! But the cost of having them framed is prohibitive)
my walls are for quilts and hooked rugs

*****

Melrose hasn't been himself for a few weeks
finally going to the vet Monday...
it took a month wait for the appointment

*****

I am also heading to Bea's house Monday morning
she is selling off her belongings
then her son can sell her house
she collected and sold antiques
 she very excited that I love Americana!

Have a great rest of the day my friends.

Can't wait to see what you've been working on. Hope Melrose's visit goes well and they figure out what's up...and it's nothing serious. Lucky you to be able to have a first go-round with your friend's treasures. ~Robin~

May I ask why you won't be going back to the LNS? Lack of stock, really high prices, bad service/attitude from workers/owner? No shop name needed, simple idle curiosity on my part why.
I'm trying hard to avoid Flosstube, my wish list is far too long already! I look forward to seeing what you've been getting accomplished.

Can't wait to see what goodies you are stitching! Hope Melrose will be ok , I took my dog for his yearly visit , they are so booked up it took a while to get an appointment . Getting any appointments is taking months !
Going to your friends house on Monday , sounds like a lot of fun ! She must have lots of treasures !!! Have a great time !!!

Love that you are stitching again. I have started on small too. No hooking yet. But have been doing some Maggie Bonanomi wool appliqués. Hope Melrose gets better. Enjoy looking at your friend’s antiques. I’m sure you will find some awesome pieces.
