Autumn Cat

As this ornament had reached the new owner I can now show you. It is out of calendar 2004  I think.



It was a pleasure to do it.

Now I am working on several ornaments   ( all secrets) So you will have to wait until you can see.

Hoping that all have a nice weekend
Love Judith

Christmas Mouse

Hello!  Just a quick fly by post to let you know that I am still here!

I have been busy stitching secret MS things... as have a few of us... one of which I can reveal to you.

I recently stitched a Christmas Card for the MS Yahoo group exchange and now that it has arrived at it's USA destination I can show it off here and also on my blog.


A quick update on my other MS stitching - Spring kitty is nearly done.... this is the third Cool Cat.  And most importantly my Christmas/Winter Exchange package is already packed up and ready to go in the mail tomorrow.

That's all for now folks!  Pop on over to my blog for further stitching updates!

Til next time, happy stitching

exchange received

A big smile was on my face this week when I received a wonderful package from Valma.   I received a pretty red wooden tree ornament with MS penguin centered in it, with a beautiful bell hanging at the top with a 'handmade' hand attached to the ribbon.  And Valerie  made it special with the penguin holding the present which looks like the French flag - blue and red and white.  What a great way for me to remember that it came from Valma in France!!   Also she sent me some red edged aida banding which is really pretty along with a piece of heart designed fabric.  I will have to find a special design for this.  A cute white wooden tree ornament with an aperature in which I will be putting a small Christmas stitching, and some Christmas stickers, which I have already used three of them.  :)   And a red fabric bag filled with Christmas ribbons and buttons.  I love it all!!   Thank you again Valerie. :)   This makes my Christmas spirit even stronger, and I want to wish everyone at MSLblog a very Merry Christmas even though it's early!!  :)

Cat and Robin Christmas Card


On Friday I bought 'Cross Stitch Crazy', issue 171.  From there I got a bit side tracked as I had to stitch the lovely freebie by Margaret Sherry of a "Cat and Robin Christmas Card".  I've just finished stitching the card, and here is a picture of it.
