well my boot is ready for our trip to San Antonio! I was just a busy bee yesterday as I greeted day break with needle in my hand and again was stitching at the bewitching hour with allot accomplished in between.

This is a darling little canvas designed by Whats the Point? After the finisher works their magic, they look like little Lands End canvas bags…too cute! another special Texas canvas that was designed for us for seminar and you will find this at Expo Night!

A stitching friend of mine has made several of these with designs that are special to each of her family members. She hangs them on her tree and inside will be tucked some green stuff from Santa or maybe a gift card. What a great idea! Maybe I should make one for Sylvester & AlleyCat?

I started out the morning yesterday working on Deco Kitty. I tried out a few stitches, took a few out, put a few more in and did a little more beading on it. I really did want to finish up the beads that were in my beading tray, but I figured I could do that later in the evening when I wanted to stitch, but not have to be too brilliant…should have listened to self as I will now be vacuuming up those beads from the rug.

Took care of some errands as I needed a few supplies for my table at Expo Night. Cat food, cat litter and a quick stop at the bank was on my to do list along with a haircut and a little gas for the car. Shudder the thought that I would run out of gas on the way to the airport Sunday morning!

When I got home I decided that it was time to start packing! I never start this early, even though all my stitching stuff has been gathered together for ages now. I just wanted to get an idea of how quickly my canvas suitcase will be filling up, just in case I need to go to a Plan B for packing. So far everything is coming together like clockwork. I have all my necessary paperwork close at hand along with some reading material to keep myself occupied for my 3 hour flight Sunday morning.

This is how the feline children spent their day…Sylvester is giving me the one eye look during his afternoon cat nap.

AlleyCat was in her own space…which they usually don’t share. Well there’s not enough room anyway!

To all our friends and family on the eastern seaboard…please stay safe and dry. Hopefully soon we can sat “Goodnight Irene” as she changes her mind and turns away from the east coast
