BTW, happy belated birthday to your son, looks like he had a wonderful day! <br /><br />How blessed your MIL is that you are close enough to spend time with her while she recovers from her surgery. I'll say a prayer that the test results come back negative.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02553206090066404906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1769244128557484949.post-33541792845558259212011-03-27T14:49:34.447-07:002011-03-27T14:49:34.447-07:00I don't know how I missed this post!

Great use of your time, BTW!<br /> One Sheep looks so pretty - I can't remember seeing that one before - great finish and on black fabric no less - ugh - so hard on the eyes.<br /><br />The GH finish is wonderful as well - I've always liked that one. <br /><br />The bird pincushion Katherine made is really sweet (tell her hello). <br /><br />And you know I love the BOAF Friendship sampler!!! Well done. <br /><br />Happy b-day to your DS - love the shot with the paintball guns! Here's to another new driver - fun and scary!<br /><br />Hugs!Chocolates4Breakfast (Terri Malinovich)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13707920827509725199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1769244128557484949.post-26134440662920053242011-03-25T07:56:46.132-07:002011-03-25T07:56:46.132-07:00So great to see a post from you!

Sitting beside a hospital bed<br />passing the time by stitching<br />away on a little project while<br />the patient watches and shares<br />in a quiet, simple and pleasant<br />pastime. <br /><br />I admit that I never thought to take skeins of thread with me to wind on their bobbins during my visits. Good thinking on your part. <br /><br />Your finish of One Sheep looks<br />fabulous on the black fabric.<br />It really makes the thread<br />colors stand out and look their<br />best. <br /><br />Fruitful Clusters is brilliant<br />too and again the fabric that<br />you chose to stitch it on really<br />sets off the design and the <br />threads very well. Love that<br />fox!<br /><br />I love your Bird pincushion!<br />From the bow around it's neck<br />to the button used for it's <br />eye, it's quite a terrific gift<br />to receive from your talented<br />and generous friend.<br /><br />Looks like your son had a <br />pretty fantastic birthday!!<br />Best wishes to him for turning<br />sixteen and good luck with the<br />driving thing!<br /><br />CheersCrazee4bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978860714766853681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1769244128557484949.post-24394020354639121182011-03-23T16:50:49.992-07:002011-03-23T16:50:49.992-07:00Oh, it's so nice to see your pop in again, Jol...Oh, it's so nice to see your pop in again, Jolene.

It's nice to have some cheap therapy every now and then :)<br />Happy 16th to your son!<br />Hope your MIL continues to improve...I think having that little bit of fire inside is what keeps you going! lol!<br />Hugs!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08625067663427750125noreply@blogger.com
