Hello and Good Morning,
Our temps have dropped (below freezing now) and I think/hope that the wind has stopped. Yesterday was so windy. It was a good day to stay inside, so I did.
We are at the last TNT for January 2024 and I have a finish to show you! The Cactus Triptych was finished last Friday and I love it.
Obviously not ironed yet, but it will be because folks, I am actually going to have this one framed!! I plan to hang it in my office room where I will see it regularly. I'm thinking just a plain skinny black frame will do nicely.
Of course I needed to start another piece and I did that yesterday afternoon. The design is from Blackbird Design's Honeybee Hill and I am stitching the bee which will be made into a pincushion.
My start. See the cute zippered bag Fletch bought for me? I'm keeping threads in it.
And here is what it should look like once I am finished stitching it.
The designers call it "Her Majesty," but to me she is "Queen Bee."
As I mentioined, we had such a windy day yesterday and by the time the sun was getting ready to set we wondered if we were in for some stormy weather. This was the view out my west-facing kitchen window while I was getting dinner ready.
Pretty ominous looking, but we never had any storms.
And, another view from last night. Our very own Queen enjoying her cactus filled with catnip!
Fletch and I have been enjoying Mabel's reactions to sounds and pictures on the TV. A crying baby will make her sit up and look. Last night it was some animals on a nature program we were watching.
Time for me to pour some more coffee and then dry my hair (my head is cold!). Here's hoping that your Tuesday will bring some fun!
