Not only is January my birthday month, what's not to love about your birthday month?! It's also a month of new things ... new 2012 calendar, new snow, new pants (I've been losing weight *smile*), new stash (I've been splurging a bit), new Gingher scissors (had my 50% coupon on me when I found Alicia at Joann's), new challenges at work (oh Joy!), new movies (Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is one awesome movie) and and and a couple more new finishes!!! Yes, two more finishes ... I'm soooo pleased! May I present to you January Word Play. With all the snow we had last week I just had to stitch this fun design. I've now stitched October Word Play and January. I have November and December to start. Have you seen February Word Play? Sooooo cute! January Word Play by Thy Needle & Thread stitched on 32 ct. light Examplar linen with suggested GAST threads I am absolutely in love with this next finish. I started this at least 3 years ago. I don't...

Happy Sunday! I hope everyone has had a great weekend. My weekend was filled with yard work with hubby, some MLS (WTG Sounders!), some NASCAR (if they every get the track dry!), lots of Mad Men watching (season 2, episode 6) and a nap! lol I thought I would give you a very wrinkled look at a couple of my rotation pieces ... first up is Peppermint Twist by BRD. I haven't worked on this lovely for a long time. PT is my Monday rotation piece. I just love this design and the Belle Soie's are wonderful to stitch with. I'm glad to have it back as an active rotation piece ... Here's my Tuesday rotation ... Autumn Song that I'm SALing with Natasha . Just a couple more leaves and this pretty will be done ... And here's what I picked to replace Primitive Wizard of Oz that I finished last week ... Wednesday's piece is Earth Laughs by Mdesigns ... fun fun fun stitch ... I've been stitching on a couple of exchanges that I can't show you yet, but I can show...
