To stop and smell the roses…or take a bite out of one…. We finally have roses again…the Japanese beetles haven’t destroyed them this year!

Do any of you use Thread Magic? I just discovered this stuff and it’s fantastic! I haven’t had but 2 knots since I began using it with my current project, those 2 came out easily😊 My current project has gone much slower than I wanted or expected because of constantly twisting, tangling, knotting thread. A big pat on the back to whoever invented this stuff!

Good Wednesday morning everyone. Did you see the beautiful strawberry full moon last night? Just gorgeous! Today we'll gather our things and get the boat ready for fishing tomorrow. Very excited about that. I finished page 2 of "Rock and Roll" and changed the hair on the two angels. I made one to look like Bryan and one like Alice Cooper. Also thinking of moving the drum studio to the finished part of the basement and it will free up more room in the living room and the drums won't upset the pups. Not much else going on here and wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday.

Today is Wednesday ………………………………………. Good Morning, MJ 💕

Has anyone else received patterns printed on flimsy low quality paper? The prices have gone up and I understand. What I don't understand is that some designers are allowing their designs to be printed on thin "crummy" paper. I just paid $13.00 for a pattern that I am going to have to put in a plastic sleeve for protection. Many times I stitch using the original. Yes, I can make a copy. Rant over!😂. Just don't get it.

Hi, working on an old Black Swan pattern, Merrick-Wizard of the Sea.What is everyone's preference on when you do the specialty threads? When you're stitching that area, or wait until the end when you do the beads? I feel like they may fray if I have to put the hoop over them if I do when I do the other stitching. What do you do?

I have finished the baby announcement... The other 2 are gifts for friends.

Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: " Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. These people are not drunk, as you suppose. it's only nine in the morning! No this, is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: " ' In the lats days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Sprit in those days, and they will prophesy. I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. And everyone who call on the name of the Lord will be saved.' Act 2 :14-21 NIV
