Pssst!!!!!!! I've Got Secrets!

Hello everyone,
It's been a long time since my last post and I wanted to drop by and say hello.

I've been secretly stitching on gifts and exchanges. I'll be so excited to share them with you when they reach their new homes. They have kept me busy and I haven't been working on anything for myself. I love to participate in exchanges. I love stitching pieces for other people. It gives me the opportunity to branch out and stitch pieces I might not normally pick up. I love finding out what people like and trying to find the perfect piece for them. I also like receiving pieces from my exchange partners. It's like Christmas!

Here is a little pretty I CAN share with you. My niece got married last Saturday night and I stitched this wedding record for her and her new hubby.

The wedding was beautiful and I feel so blessed to have been a part of their special day. They are perfect for each other and will have a lifetime of happiness.

~Best Wishes Kegan & Erin~

I also want to share the great prize I won from my friend Amy. I successfully guessed the correct answer to a question on her blog. She sent me these wonderful charts I had on my wish list. A great BIG thank you to Amy! I can't wait to start stitching these awesome designs.

Well friends.............it's back to my secret stitching projects. I'll be back soon to show you what I've been working on.

Happy Fall Y'all!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep on stitchin' on,

Nan

Schoolgirl Lessons

Hello fellow stitchers & friends,

I just wanted to stop by and say a quick hello and show you my latest finish.

Little House Needleworks ~~~~~~~ Schoolgirl Lessons

I took the liberty of changing the last word from Stitching to Arithmetic. I wanted the traditional saying Reading Writing Arithmetic cause this little beauty is going to find a home on my desk at school.

Below is a picture of the original pattern.

Now.............I just have to find a clean spot on my desk.

Keep on stitchin' on,
