Did you know that February is National embroidery month?! Now, I don’t know if that means hand embroidery with floss or cross stitching or machine embroidery! I do love to use my embroidery machine! I often make eyeglass cases or pincushions or purses, but another fund thing I used to do, was to collect 5×7 …
Hi and welcome to the last blog hop of the year hosted by Carol (and by Joan on alternate months!) I just LOVE joining these fun blog hops! It’s a blast to put on your thinking cap months in advance and come up with something to fit a theme (or come up with something LAST …
When Joan announced earlier in the year that people could sign up for her and Carol’s blog hops at one time, I signed up for them all! I’m not really a Halloween person, but this year my kids are going to a fall fest at our church and my two youngest have costumes! (I’ll show …

I’ve been having quite the marathon using my embroidery machine! I don’t remember how it started but Anja started helping me pick fabrics and thread colors and I showed her how to change the thread color on the screen of the machine too and she’s been wanting to do it every day! My “plan” is …
