Going Strong on my Cross Country Stitching!

Hi everyone
Today is so cold only reached 34 degrees but it is sunny and melting the snow and ice that we got yesterday. Here is a pic from my backyard

Here is an update of my black wolf which I was able to get 977 stitches in this past weekend.
The brown is the start of the back of the wolf.  I stitchedall of 160 Med Gray Blue, 3033 Very Light Mocha Brown, 644 Med. Beige Gray, 500 Very Dark Blue Green, and 3371 Black Brown.
Happy Stitching!

What A Disaster!!!!!

Well, now that Irene left Rhode Island and I just finally got my internet back!  I lost my power for 5 days and my internet for 7 days.  I am finally up and stitching again.  I thought you might like seeing some photos of the mess Ireene left here around my home.  We did have wind gusts of 90 mph!

 Across my street

I have survived with no damage to my home.  Just a large tree fell in my backyard.  So am back to stitching!

Yellow Be Gone!!!!!

Before I start talking about our redoing our kitchen which is a start but the bathroom and basement will follow.  I have stitched and will post later about that.
My hubby has decided to redo the kichen and is doing a great job!  In this first photo you see it is all yellow!

Yellow Be Gone!

Here are some pics of what he has done so far!  It is a work in progress and he wants it done before our annual Christmas Party on Christmas Day!

Here you see the red oak cupbards on the top along with my awesome black double ovens on the right.  Oh yea! and the lighting he has put in over the cupboards.  No doors as of yet : )

Here it is at another angle.  You can see the old white stove to the right.  That will be history really soon!

another angle

You can see here the island to the left that will be totally changed, quite soon!

Hope everyone is doing well and getting alot of stitching done!  Just needed to share why I have not been stitching lately!  Along with the back to school shopping, lol!
