Jack is nearly done with the cross stitch on his kitty then it is on to the backstitching. Is there anyone out there who actually likes a mile of backstitching? Not me or Jack.

Finally!!!!! I finished my wrap! It has been more off working on it than on since April. I mean with cross stitching and home repairs it has taken the backseat a lot. At least I will have it for the chilly fall mornings sitting out with the Bugger.

And speaking of the Bugger, isn’t this a cute picture? She is snuggling with a teddy bear she found abandoned in a ditch on one of our walks. She promptly picked it up and brought him home. How could I take it away from her? So after a bath he looks good as new and she loves him!

Blessed Sunday all!

I like that wrap. It is crocheted, isn’t it? I should really finish the one I started. Not till my hand heals though….I’m having carpal tunnel surgery on the left side on Friday afternoon. Oh regarding the pattern weights – if you look them up on Google, you will see that most of them are simply washers with fabric wrapped around them. And my, the prices they charge!!!
Jack’s cross stitich is beautiful! I really enjoy seeing your works in progress
Your warp is stunning…..wish I could make one. I’ve never learned to read a pattern.
Katie….what a cutie!
