Hey, Friends!
Blogging friends are the best and RAoKs (Random Acts of
Kindness) are SO special.
I got an email from Cherie at 123 Stitch saying I had received a
gift certificate, and after a little investigation discovered it was from
Jackie of Scattered Threads. A couple of Adam and Eve charts that were on my
Wish List are now here with me! Again, thank you so much for your thoughtfulness,
Jackie.
Have you seen the project bags made by Faye, the Carolina Stitcher? They
are not only beautiful, but made so well with great quality and excellent
details! And her precious scissor fobs –
don’t you just love, love ém? I sure do. Thank you so much, Faye. I’m thrilled and delighted. If you’re interested in getting Faye to make
some for you, click the link above and check out her creative finishing, too. 
Lots of you start a new project on New Year’s Day, and I usually
do, too. The old wives tale says that whatever you do on New Year’s Day will be
what you do throughout the year, and I don’t want to be starting lots of new
projects, but rather finishing them. This
year I've decided to work on WIPs, so on New Year’s Day I’ll continue stitching
on Mary Gibson, and not a new start
piece. I have done an inventory of
sorts, and decided which of my WIPs will be on the list. There are several that I’ll hang onto for a
while before getting rid of them, but that is likely! I do plan to continue with Country Cottage
Needleworks, Santa’s
Village. Santa’s House and
Poinsettia Place are finished and awaiting North Pole Post Office.
Thanks for stopping by, today and
always. I appreciate your thoughts and
comments!
May your 2013 be filled with PeaceëLoveëJoy
and Happy Stitching!

ReplyDeleteWow! That is really, really nice. =)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful surprise!!
ReplyDeleteAnd Faye's goodies are wonderful, aren't they?
Yes, RAK's are too cool! And I agree, Faye does wonderful work! I started a new project for the new year... but it will NOT dictate what my year will be like... I am a woman, after all... prone to changing my mind on a whim! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you too! Congrats on RAKs - such a nice thing for Jackie to do! I started a new small, but not on New Year's day. I want to do a small, work on a WIP and then do another small. Wish us both luck on finishing some of our WIPS.
ReplyDeleteI'm like you -- I'm stitching on my WIPs right now. Although of course I did start something before New Year. lol! Lovely RAK!
ReplyDeleteI spent New Year's Day being lazy and sleeping.... I sure hope that isn't my fate for the new year!!!!!
