Welcome to ChitChat!

Good Wednesday morning everyone. I hope everyone's week is going well and that the snow is melting and the sun is shining. Yesterday was another phone day with Bryan on the phone with his brother and me on the phone with my sister-in-law. It was like a 3-way conversation. It can be quiet for days and then all of sudden it's the phone. Today should be quieter. Wishing everyone a wonderful Wednesday. Blessings and prayers for the many situations in the world.

Please keep the small community of Tumbler Ridge in your prayers after a terrible mass shooting in their secondary school and at a private residence. Ten people dead and 25 injured. No info is being given out at present. So very tragic. 💕

How's the postage situation over there now?? I have a package in transit from yourselves and wondered if things are still a little delayed due to weather conditions. I have another order waiting for me to finalise it and send.

Good Tuesday morning everyone. A little bit of a late start this morning, but I was delving into Ancestry a little bit more. It's really a little convoluted figuring out everything on there, but I'm starting to get it a little better. We decided to bake a ham this morning, too, so it was kitchen duty. Finally, I'll be able to stitch a little bit and maybe finish another row on "Lady". Have a terrific Tuesday and keep smiling!

I have this nice pattern. The color key and symbols has one missing symbol. It is the upside down symbol of classic colorworks blackbird. The symbol is in the balloon. Please advise.

I am trying to find DMC's Stitch Bow binder inserts that hold 15 DMC Stitch Bow Floss holders. I have searched DMC's website and Amazon, but only find the minis. Do they no longer make the larger capacity binder inserts?
