A chilly day good for stitching!

I sometimes enjoy applying special effects to my pictures. This time I picked on Sylvia!  She was looking out the front room window.
Here she is fetching a toy she lost.  The drawer is out because it needs some repair.
I found a small amount of fabric at Ehler's in the rummage bin that will be perfect for some new caps!
Here is Jack and Sylvia this morning.  I rather like this picture of the two of them.
Okay, I was saving my best surprise for last!  I finished that pesky page of nearly all black on my wolf.  Now I am well on the way on the 5th of 12 pages.  if you are interested in this pattern he is at this site.  He is on page two but they do have other nice patterns.
I enjoyed my visit with you.  Be blessed and have an awesome week.  Huggles!

Since I talk to you so much on FB, I always forget to go to blogs too much anymore and I need to get in a better routine for that! I forget how much you and I BOTH love to cross stitch! The pictures are wonderful ~ ♥

I'm glad Sylvia has settled in and made herself at home.I can't wait for spring,I don't care for cold weather. The owl is doing better since I got him.He can use him foot some now,poor thing was hit by a car and has a broken leg.
I hope you Jack and Sylvia have a Happy New Year!!
Blessings Donna

“Here’s to the bright New Year, and a fond farewell to the old; here’s to the things that are yet to come, and to the memories that we hold.”

Happy New Year to you and Jack, dear Michelle! Wishing you the very best that 2011 has to offer. I look forward to another wonderful year of friendship with you:-)
