I am officially caught up with "I'm stitching Along"!   I am soo happy and now will have to slow down... have you ever been working on something, full speed and then, suddenly it's over,  de finition, goal reached.  That is a bit how I feel.  Of course I could just  get behind and then get caught up all over again ~ NOT.
Be prepared to see my little blue lines that I either forgot to blot out OR am having trouble getting out!  I am using a Q-tip with cold water drenching it.  Any tips???

My Dad used to call me "duck when I was first learning to walk...

#9  One of my first peices of dish ware to collect was by "HALL".
I love this company.  They use gold on them,  a bit or a lot of it in certain pieces. This  square has two gold squares "kitty corner" from it... very light.

Oh Merci!

#11 Growing up I loved to climb trees! Right behind our house was the most popular climbing tree around! It was called the Tarzan Tree ~ I did not name it but we all loved the name. I have played "tag" in it... did well 'til I jumped one too many times from limb to limb .  Luckily grabbed enough of the trunk to slide down a bit to regain my self on another branch. Another time I was just "hanging " on a branch when I decided to go ahead and climb up into the tree ... just as a dog {known as "king .. KING OF TERROR} whooshed right under me as I raised myself up JUST in time!
