I came across this little freebie at a blog that is quite new to me. You can find this and many more patterns here. I decided to stitch my little owl on natural glenshee linen using two colors of Gloriana silks.....Fallen leaves for the owl and Pecan for everything else. It was a fun stitch and owls are so popular right now and I didn't have any in my collection.
I'm waiting on two patterns that I've sent for to come in the mail and I'm debating on whether or not to start something else till they get here.
This is the first one from Widgets and Wools Primitives and is called Better Not Pout and the second one is
from Jardin Prive and is called Trop Chouette.
Maybe I should just stitch on my tribute piece, Fallen Roses until they get here. I would really hate to start something and then have them arrive. I'm really wanting to start some Christmas stitching and the Better Not Pout one I just love.
Well that's all for now. For those who didn't know, Vallie had been very sick and is feeling much better now. I took her to her doctor and she said she thought it was an parasite that had gotten into her intestines. Yuk!!!! Two different medicines and $300 worth of tests later, she's feeling much better and is back to her old self. She has an appointment with a new groomer on wednesday so I'll be sure to post a new picture of her new doo.
I hope everyone has a great week with lots of time to put in some stitches.
Blessings as always,
Barbara
