2014 Smalls SAL and 2014 TUSAL updates

Wow, another month has come to pass and it's time for both my 2014 Smalls SAL update and my 2014 TUSAL (Totally Useless Sitich-A-Long) update. Both can be found on my sidebar if your interested.

So, first up is the 2014 Smalls SAL. I had two pieces that I stitched up.

"Right Amount of Crazy"

 

I found this saying while I was poking around on Pinterest one day.

"My goal is to be just the right amount of Crazy to make everyone else doubt their Sanity"

Stitched it on 28 count cream Evenweave using DMC threads.

"Happy Mother's Day"

This is the Mother's Day gift I posted here on my blog.

Stitched on 28 count evenweave using DMC threads.

Next up is the 2014 TUSAL

I had to squish down the threads a bit, but at least there are more in the ORT jar.

Well that's it for today stitcher's.  Thank you all for stopping by and leaving your thoughts behind, I appreciate each and every one of them.

A Father's Day Design

I lost my father back in 1990 so I won't be stitching this one myself, but there are still a lot of great father's out there that this design could be stitched for. 

If you do happen to stitch this design or any of the other designs I have posted I would love to see a picture of the stitched piece.

"Happy Father's Day"

That's it for today, I hope you enjoy the new design.

I GOT TULIPS !!!!

Oh My GOD!! I have blooming Tulips in my front yard planter!!!

OK, I know, their just flowers for goodness sake, But if you only knew how many years in a row the deer have used them as an all you can eat buffet, you'd be excited to.

The big guy finally got around-to-it and bought some deer spray that worked like a charm.

It's called "Deer Off" by Havahart and it deters Deer, Squirrel, and Rabbits. 

Here they are getting ready to bloom.

Here they are in all their blooming glory.

A happy bunch of Grape Hyacinth. Their just so darn cute.

I know, look at all the weeding that needs to be done. You see I made a deal with the big guy years back, that if I took care of the inside of the house and he'd take care of the out side 1/2 acre. Well that doesn't really work out all the time, so I'll be pulling weeds again this year, at least he always mows, weed wack's and sprays.

A Mother's Day Gift to Stitch

Mother's Day is on May 11th. 

So I've designed a quick to stitch gift for that special woman in your life who you call Mother.

I added the hearts, but you could replace them with initials or a date, it's up to you.

Wishing all Mother's a very Happy Mother's Day filled with LOVE.

TUSAL for April 29th 2014

OK, OK, I'm a day late this month and I'm blaming it on the big guy, since he took Thursday and Friday off along with his regular Saturday and Sunday, so it got my dates off a bit. 

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!

So, without further delay here is my TUSAL for April 29th.

 Here they are in all their colorful messed up glory.

The messed up part is also the fault of the big guy, he had a sudden urge last week to fiddle with my ORT jar for some reason and had to pull them out of the jar and then plunk them back in and shake up the jar, as I tried to grab it away from him. He thought it quite funny, while I on the other hand was not amused in the least and actually yelled at him, leave my threads alone, don't shake those up, and that I needed to take a picture of them. He, of course,  just looked at me like I was nuts and shook the jar again before I grabed it away from him, while he just laughed at me. "So glad I could amuse you for a bit" I say as I put the jar farther away from him.

Well, that's it for this post. Thank You so much for stopping by  and do come again.
