Amber's progress






I told ILCS last week that my daughter, Amber, has finally been bitten by the cross stitch bug. She says she is now addicted and is very excited about her next project. Here is a picture of her project. She started late Thursday night so she is doing well. She even changed the colors because the penguin was suppose to be even lighter gray than it is. She was visited briefly by some nasty frogs but we managed to chase them away. I am so proud of her.













These are two of my newest ornaments I have been working on. They are very easy and work up in no time. I did 4 in 2 nights. The green and red one was the first and then I made the blue and silver one. I also made a purple and fuchia one along with another green and red one. I am now working on more ornies. I think I have 12 of the 28 I have to do. Kind of a tradition with me.

Happy Stitching to everyone!!!
