Baby, it's cold outside!

Well we're in the middle of this deep chill, with more to come apparently! Not a good time for Tory to be struggling with her asthma again. She's home from school again--yesterday and today. Dr. put her back on prednisone and zithromax, and did a strep swab--the rapid test was negative. We're stepping up nebulizer treatments again, and I've got to take some stuff to the school in case she has problems there. Though nighttime seems to be her worst time!

I've been stitching, and I've got my Spot RR ready to go out, and I've finally figured out a layout for my Mirabilia RR. I need to get a HUGE piece of fabric for it though, 28x35 at the least. That's one massive piece of fabric!! I have planned to do the top part of Mirabilia's Rose Celebration, and then there are 8 sections around her for the other RR members. Hopefully I can get the fabric soon, so I can have it ready for the April 2nd maildate.

My other love right now in stitching is Passione Ricamo's Autumn Faery Spirit. The colors are absolutely stunning! I'm stitching her on SMF's Snickerdoodles, which is perfect. I've found it VERY hard to put her down, but I forced myself! I may up my goal time on her to 10 hours though, she's so pretty!

Hopefully everyone is warm!

adding some pictures for update on the Autumn Faery Spirit WIP and my kitty!

Blah days...

January is always a 'blah' month for me--not ever sure exactly why. This Jan seems to be no exception, and with the weather not having a clue what it is doing or how it's behaving--sheesh! I mean I love 70 degree weather, but not in January!! Seems that today and yesterday the weather remembered this is New England, and our wind chill temp right now is 8 degrees. While I don't like it--brrrrr-it is *normal* LOL!

I tend to combat my blahs with new starts, etc. So last night I picked up our mail and in it was the Dragon Blood floss from Vikki Clayton for Mary Queen of Scots by Papillion Creations. I was stunned that I could find no one has this as a WIP? No pictures, etc. Sooo I've decided I'll have to post lots of pictures! It's quite the large piece-16.5"x25" on Belfast-so it'll take me for*ever* lol! I also plan to do her complimentary chart The Three Emblems, which is the companion piece, as a biscornu in the same floss.

Passione Ricamo did it again! There's new designs I LOVE Love LOVE! My Lady of the Snow and Make a Wish (Little Wishes Line). I already have a few of this designer, but I can see these being added to my wishlist! I've started Enchanted Faery and Autumn Faery Spirit as part of my January starts... her faeries are getting more and more stunning!

Well I think that's about it for today--hope you and yours are well!!

Peace
