What did you do on your Summer Vacation?

I am here in beautiful upstate New York, where the weather couldn’t be better! Actually perfect temperatures, blue skies, a gentle breeze and little to no humidity! What happened? It’s almost like the weather followed me from home. My flight was uneventful and I arrived here on Wednesday morning at about 1:30AM, sorry sis! So it was a lazy morning yesterday and then we spent the afternoon going through some of my sister’s quilting fabrics. Even though she is a wonderful stitcher, my sister’s main expertise is in her quilting and she is really, really good at it too.

This is my stitching project while I am here, a new Pischke Pocket! This one is called Savannah, with that beatiful magnolia as the centerpiece of the canvas. This will be a Christmas present to my sister and my plan is to hopefully finish it during my visit and then just leave it here for her. With my sister’s expertise in sewing… unlike me who was definately was standing behind the door when that sewing gene was handed out I will leave it for her to applique the pocket on the bag!

My sister has a work meeting today, so I am on my own to enjoy a lazy morning and afternoon of stitching, catching up on some e-mails and whatever mischief I can get myself into. I am missing the feline children and I wonder what kind of mischief they are getting into?

A new box from CostCo for AlleyCat and I think that this one was in high on the feline approval scale! 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?
