Welcome to ChitChat!

Hello Wednesday morning everyone. We finally got the Christmas tree and decorations down yesterday. What a gray, gray day and not much else got accomplished and I didn't stitch a stitch. Tomorrow it's supposed to get up to 56 and the sun will reappear and we decided to go on a short road trip and out to lunch. It's not even the middle of January yet and already winter is wearing at my nerves. Good news is there is no snow on the ground. Hoping to get some stitching in today and finish the row this week on the mermaid pattern. Have a wonderful, wondrous Wednesday!

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

Good Morning


Leviticus 8: 1 - 5


1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,


2 Take Aaron and his sons with him, and
the garments and the anointing oil, and
the bull of the sin offering, and the two
rams, and the basket of unleavened
bread,


3 and assemble all the congregation at the doorway
of the tent of meeting.


4 "So Moses did just as the Lord commanded him.
When the congregation was assembled at the
doorway of the tent of meeting,


5 Moses said to the congregation,
"This is the thing which the Lord has
commanded us to do."


Have A Bless Day! And wonderful one

Hi all! Just checking in. I'm still enjoying my new juicer. I juiced 20 pounds of strawberries on New Year's day. The pulp was pretty good so I put all of it in containers in the fridge. No waste! I made dessert juice last night, a quart of apple, a pint of pineapple, and a pint of cranberry. Ever since I started replacing one meal a day with juice and having pulp for dessert, my energy has been so high, and I've been sleeping better. I'm saving money too! A local grocery store sells wholesale produce so we get awesome prices in their retail store. Life is good.

Hello everyone -- Happy New Year! It's the beginning of not only a new year, but of course also a new month. As we always do at the beginning of the month, let's share what we've been stitching on during the past few weeks and what we've recently finished.

Post a photo and brief description (pattern name + designer or publisher); if you prefer not to post a photo or it's difficult to do, just tell us in words about your stitching!

I wish everyone well in the new year, and hope 2026 brings fulfilling stitching to us all!

What size is the pattern to be followed…how many pages? Is the size of the finished product 21.4 inches by 14.3 inches? Is this considered a difficult project?

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

Is it possible to send this pattern digitally?

Good Tuesday morning everyone! The warm up is here and yesterday was beautiful sunshine. It just lifts your spirits and we got a lot accomplished. Today is taking the tree and decorations down and dusting and vacuum day. Made good progress on mermaid yesterday and should be finished with first row this week. Enjoy your day. Today I'm going to remind myself to just stay present.

Good Monday morning everyone and welcome to a new week. Today Bryan has a doctor's appointment and after that the day is open. We might go out to lunch and tomorrow is take down the Christmas decorations day. We have a warm up coming and finally some sunlight. It's been pretty darn gray the last couple of weeks. Have an excellent week ahead!
