Welcome to ChitChat!

I have made 6 of Sandy Ortons Christmas Stockings with patterns from the magazine Cross Stitch and Country Crafts. I made one for each of our grandchildren and now I am making the same stockings for our great grandchildren! They are absolutely beautiful when completed!

Good Morning

Numbers 4:7

7 Other the table of the bread of the Presence
they shall also spread a cloth of violet and
put on it the dishes, the pans, the sacrificial
bowls, and the jugs for the drink offering;
and the continual bread shall be on it.

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

Just saw Mary C's Santa. Wow Wow Wow. Not to compare it with Lady Sillouette I am now working on. Just about finished the lady and acouple of smaller objects. But I am now looking at the background with leaves and flowers and wondering, "Can I really do this " ? I only work on 14 ct. But this Santa is so exquisite as many of yours are. and don't know how she did it. Wow. I hope I can muster up the energy to finish this project. I really love it and will try try try. So tell me ladies, where do you find the energy and determination to finish these works of art. ? I don't like WIPS....Rather than finish something I don't want, I will either discard it or give it away I'm BAD !!

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

Good Friday morning everyone and happy August eve. It looks like I have to go for jury duty August 10th. I have never served on a jury before so it will be a new experience. If I get selected I'll gladly serve. The new sidewalk project is coming along beautifully and what they have completed looks so nice and spruces up this block a lot. Today I'm stitching on "Autumn Cardinals". I have finished the first quarter section and will backstitch that are today before moving on to the next section. Wishing everyone a fantastic Friday and upcoming weekend.

I just got 2 emails, 3 texts and 2 phone calls….that said “the dangerous animal that caused the alert this afternoon has been recovered “
Good to know, if I had ever gotten anything saying there was a dangerous animal on the loose, in the first place…

Our monthly 'Show and Tell' is just two or three days away -- but I want to share now because I'm so relieved to finally have completed this a couple of days ago! Almost four years start to finish, but it did spend some time sitting idle for a few months at a time.

Santa looks like a rather young fellow, but I suppose he's ageless!
