Welcome to ChitChat!

Here is my labor of love that I worked on the last 3 winters. The Birth of Venus pattern I had custom made. She was stitched on a uncut piece of linen that was a pillow kit I had in my stash. She is 40" long and now I am on the hunt for a frame.

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

Here in the NE we had about 5" slick roads and covered sidewalk temp 32 degrees Hope both procedures go well for each one of you

😄😄😄😄😄

Good Saturday morning everyone. I finished "Floral Butterfly" yesterday and today Bryan will frame it up and then it's a trip to UPS to ship. I'll start the dragonfly pattern from JCS magazine for my new niece, who loves dragonflies. Eventually I'll get back to my full coverage projects. Today is last minute shopping for what Bryan will need after his surgery. We have a lot to do before Monday, but we'll get it accomplished. Have a satisfying Saturday and good weekend.

What is the stitch count for this pattern?

Good Morning


Leviticus 16: 1 -5


1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses after the death
of the two sons of Aaron, when they had
approached the presence of the Lord and died.


2 The Lord said to Moses:
"Tell your brother Aaron that he shall not enter at
any time into the Holy Place inside the veil, before
the atoning cover which is on the ark, or he will die;
for I will appear in the cloud over the atoning cover.


3 Aaron shall enter the Holy Place with this; with a bull
as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering.


4 He shall put on the holy linen tunic, and the linen under
garments shall be next to his body, and he shall be wrapped
about the waist with the lien sash and the linen turban wound
around his forehead (these are holy garments). He shall bathe
his body in water and put them on.


5 And he shall take from the congregation of the sons of Israel
two male goats as a sin offering, and one ram as a burnt offering.


Have A Bless Day! And a safe one.

Good Friday the 13th morning everyone. May today be your lucky day! Yes, much improvement with blood work results yesterday and the good cholesterol went up significantly! The bad....well...it improved. Today we are doing the last minute shopping before Bryan's surgery and I made him a protein powder smoothie yesterday, which he enjoyed and I'm making his favorite potato soup, which will go through the blender. Also cleaning everything in sight that needs it. Still, today I will finish "Floral Butterfly" and hope to get it to UPS tomorrow. Finally, we're expecting another arctic blast over the weekend into Monday. UGH. Have a fabulous Friday!

😘😘😘😘😘

Been so busy!
The sisters-in-law loved their perpetual calendars, and I finally finished my husband's Christmas present. Better late than never, right?!
I added the rod and line because they weren't on the pattern.
