Yep you read that correct ... I have a finish!!  My first ambidextrous finish ever! lol ... before my numbness started I had this sweet piece almost finished.  Using my left hand I finished the bottom 4 little icons.  It was a struggle but a struggle worth it.  I love it!  Don't look too close though lol Liberty by Little House Needleworks stitched on R&R Irish Creme 30 count using suggested Crescent Colors and GAST And an update on my health.  Still no diagnosis but the numbness is getting better.  My right hand and arm now do what they are supposed to do most of the time.  I can hold a needle but can't always feel it ... my finger tips are still pretty numb ... but getting better every day!  I have another dr appt in September with an eye neurologist ... maybe he can see something the others haven't been able to. Thank you again so much for all your support, hugs and prayers ... it really has helped! Off to find L*K Halloween mystery sa...

Hope your Spring is going well.  I've been stitching a bit but just not very motivated.  I did some St. Patrick's Day stitching for myself ... they are still waiting to be finished.  I stitched a few smalls that I wanted to finish for the Easter baskets we do every year ... they are stitched but not finished ... I think about sitting down at the sewing machine but when I do, there's not a creative thought ... nothing, nada ... everything I try looks like what I've done over and over again ... boring ... and that's kinda how I'm feeling about all my stitching right now.  I have WIPS that I really want to finish and tons of new stuff I want to start ... yea I went a little overboard after the Nashville Market lol ... I'm in a stitching funk I guess.  So far the most excited I get is when the new stash arrives in the mail ... I oh and goo over everything, put it in my stitching room and there it sits.  Enough of my whining ... I do have a few pictures to share...

I've been such a bad blogger lately ... bad at blogging and bad at blog reading ... and I've missed you all! I love the connection that blogging give to all of us and find myself thinking of you and wondering what you are up to ... I'll be catching up with you soon. I have been stitching and will share pictures later ... right now I have a lovely exchange I'd like to share. I'm participating in this years exchange on Friends Stitching Through The Seasons exchange blog. The stitcher sending to me this year is Michelle from AZ (no blog unfortunately). This pretty box arrived on my doorstep this week ... I was sooo excited to open it ... Don't you love opening a box and seeing this ... when everything was unwrapped ... here's what I received ... such fun stuff! but the best is the scissor pocket she stitched for me ... her stitching is just lovely. This was stitched over one! And look at my new friend, just love this bunny! here's the back of the sci...
