Kitties and Stitching

      A very good combo indeed! Mr. Smokey required lots of cuddles- and his fuzzy blanket- on my days off.                        

                                                 
  Ladybug found it quite necessary to guide my package that came. She was using it as a temporary throne. This Queen may not wear a crown, but she does require a throne!
                                                 

  The Queen did remember us peasants when it came time to unload groceries and bring them in the house the other day. 








 I do not remember if I posted my Singing in the Rain finish here or not. I can't find a decent photo on my phone, or I would post one now. I must have accidentally deleted the more recent photos of it. 

  I did start this: 




  I finished Singing in the Rain before Christmas, and started this one (Baby, It's Cold Outside by Heartstring Samplery) around the same time. It is hard to see, but the linen is sparkly! I'm using 32 ct Raw Silver Belfast linen. For threads I am using DMC 869, 816, 730, 728, and either 712 or 3033. I am also using Petite Treasure Braid 300 for the snow. Can't have too many sparkles!!!

  I also got Mom various dinosaur/nessie sppons and things. Here is noodle Nessie enjoying her first sauna!




  Last, but not least, Robin, thank you for the lovely card!!! It made my day! That was incredibly sweet of you! I would post a picture here, but alas, it is at home, and I am not. 

  Well, I do not have much else to say. I am at work, and several of the shift's circumstances are suboptimal. That said, I am determined to have a good a day as possible!
  
I hope all of you are staying warm and safe! 
 Happy Stitching!

It finally happened!

Two things actually- I finally stitched done last night, and I was allowed to leave the house on Sunday. No going to church though- our pastor had to quarantine since he had been around us before symptoms were showing. He did a Facebook livestream of the sermon, so we were able to watch that! 
 Here are pictures of my stitching progress:


And of course, Smokey helping!

He demands his bowl of ice cream. Usually, he will eat it, but not always. He gets mad if I don’t put a little of the chocolate syrup on his icecream, the brat! 
And a random picture of Bear- he looked so happy while we were outside!
Happy stitching, and have a great day!

Breakfast in Bed

I started on the umbrella the evening of my last post. I didn't  want the chicks to get wet with the thunderstorm here! ;) The lil' chick at the end wasn't covered yet, but it's hatching, so it is already wet anyway. 

There is suppose to be a polka dot somewhere in the circle, but I somehow missed it. Not sure what I'm going to do about it yet. 

The lil' one is covered now. Definitely a crackup though!
Peppy was having breakfast in bed when I got home from work the other day.
 
Can't say I blame him, it was a wonderful day for breakfast in bed. Or a breakfast picnic, whichever he preferred. 
 I'm back at work today. Not too terribly much to report. I finally updated my budget, so that is good. Annoying to do, but good to have done! How have all of you been? 
I hope your day is awesome!
