Whew, A Better Day

So I did put down the stitching of my autumn piece.  I am glad I did that.  Now I can think of it without getting overwhelmed.  I think being so tired with no sleep added to my being upset.  Last night I was going bonkers over stitching because I was beyond tired and couldnt sleep due to thinking about projects.  I have way too much time on my hands!

I started a cat in a pumpkin one that I can not find a pic of on line.  I am like half done with it already, it is that small...and i will post pics when I am done with it.  I hope to finish it tonight or tomorrow. 

These are the next patterns I want to buy:


Thine is the Trick and the Treat
and then

Earth Goddess




I know earth goddess was in a mag.  If anyone has the mag may I buy it from you??? 

Lots of Love Guys!!

Hating My Current WIP

I am working on my autumn mandala and I am hating it.  My stitches are not coming out clean and straight.  I am just hating making it.  I am so upset by it.  It will not be done by this autumn, because I do not plan to pick it up again for a long time.  I just hate it!!

I couldnt sleep last night because all I thought about was stitching.  So I stayed up and stitched, and it was a mistake!  You can not stitch while sleepy.  I made so many mistakes.  But I am going to continue on it and I love it anyway.

Two mill hill charts came in the mail for me today.  I am sooo happy!!  Maybe I will start on those and then my house.  Of course as i look at them, I do not have the string.  oy vey.  Maybe not a good day, stitching wise.

Some Leaflets I Found and Want to Give Away

Hello Everyone.  I want to thank you all for continuing to read my blog and thank you for all the compliments.  While looking through some patterns I found some old leaflets I got from the thrift store that I do not need and will never work from.  Whoever wants them can have them.  It will be first come first serve.  I don't even know if anyone would want them.  I just have a horrible habit of buying anything cross stitch I find in a thrift store.
These are the three:

Country Quackers to Cross Stitch






This one is Love Those Country Miniatures

and this last one is Country Homestead Series

AHHHH, confused

OK HAED has way to many designs.  I love the faeries, I love the angels, I love the witches!!!  I can't pick one, it is starting to make me nervous! 

hmmm, maybe, ok, does anyone have any HAED patterns of the ones I mentioned above they are willing to sell?  Ones they may have finished or something?  Maybe I can find some for cheaper so I can get more? 

Ahhhh nervous!!!!

New Finish and Today's Shopping

Hello Hello Everyone!

Today was a great day.  DH spoiled me rotten.  I got enough dmc for two projects, thanks also to joanns sale.  Gorgeous fluffy yarn at 97 cents a skein.  Then hubby says i can get a HAED..my first!!!  He said two but they are not on sale anymore, so I will only get one.  Now to pick it.  That is the hard part.

Here is something I finished, after a year, because i hate backstitching.  I did it last night with my ladies group.  I really missed them.  Due to funds, I did not see them for a while, but I was back and they missed me as much as I missed them.

Here is my fininsh:

Hope everyone is having a great day, as well!!
