UPS or UPS?!

Posted on by

Now that I have you totally confused! You say United Parcel Service…well I might say

United Purr Service!

As much as I love the latter, UPS are our best friends at this time of the year…just like Santa dressed in brown shorts. Well living in Southern California we never ever, well almost never see the drivers in anything but shorts!

UPS delivers Christmas and Hanukkah gifts and ships our presents to loved ones. They deliver our holiday finishing, our orders placed and who doesn’t just love getting a package left at the door?

Lately I have been getting allot of extra packages as you can see. No, these are not for me, but rather are the threads for my TNNA classes. Yes it is still 6 weeks away or maybe is it 5 now? But I have never been one to wait till the last minute.

Thank you to the generosity of our thread companies…Access Commodities, Kreinik, Planet Earth, Rainbow Gallery, Sundance Designs, Colonial Needle and of course the canvas designers who sponsor these classes by donating their goods. I will share all the luscious threads with you after the holidays.

It is has been raining lots lately which is just condusive to stitching! I just have 1 design center to finish up on my cupcakes…it is allot of searching through the stash for just the right thread in color that makes my heart sing. I need to scribble out a rough draft of a stitch guide before I can send them off to the finishers. Guess where I am off to this morning? Threads for these cupcakes! The colors that I have are just not purr~fect.

You have been seeing shots of this, but this is a full shot of one of my ornament trees…and after reading my favorites blogs the other day, I realize that I have lots of stitching to do! Living with Needlepoint spotlights the beautiful stitching, Christmas trees and holiday decorating of Don, one of the owners of Associated Talents. Wow it is wonderful! I better get busy…as I have allot of catching up to do.

To further add to the confusion…you are saying what this is Tuesday. You never blog on Tuesdays? well I am headed back east in a few days without my laptop, so no bloging then. I want to spend my time with my family rather than keeping my nose buried in the computer. So a little more now and none later.

Aahhhh Sylvester you shouldn’t have. and until next time…keep on stitching

Needlepoint, morning noon and evening! what could be better than this? I work on the computer in the daylight hours editing stitch guides and drawing stitches that you will see in the next Needlepoint Now for your stitching pleasure! In between this, there is time for taking pictures of my stitching adventures, Facebook and writing stitch guides for canvas that I am stitching for Needle Deeva, Maggie, Ruth Schmuff and others. Mostly needlepoint you ask? well we will talk about my cats Sylvester and AlleyCat, better known as "the brat". Of course I can't forget Felix who was the love of my life for over 14 years. He broke my heart as he departed for the Rainbow Bridge last year. Oh did I mention baseball?

  1. I live in Iowa. One year my UPS man had a bet with his supervisor that he could wear his shorts until Thanksgiving. His church was $100 richer that Christmas! Loved my UPS man at work, he changed to a different route right before we closed, it made it easier on both of us. No goodbyes. Merry Christmas, Fly safe. It’s going to snow here tomorrow 6 to 8″.
