First up is Viola Martini.
This is where I left last month.
I continue to work on this piece
for my heritage wall on Sunday's.
Finished adding in my paternal
great grandmother's names now.
Now if you have an eagle eye,
you will see that my dad's grandmother's name
reads Rosemary Husson- Husson.
Her maiden name was also Husson.
She was the cousin to her husband,
my great paternal grandfather.
True story.
We had to do our family tree in school
when I was in middle school.
My teacher gave me a "D" because
he thought I got lazy adding in my
paternal great grandmother's name.
Well thankfully it was parent-teacher's
conference that same night.
My mom took my paper and told my teacher
that what I had written was correct.
He then gave me an "A".
Am almost at the finish line.
I am 85% certain I will add in the border,
even though it was not in the pattern.
Me thinks it will give some definition
to this piece...the other 15% of me
wants to get this to the framer.
Who will win?
Next up is Strawberry Faire.
This is where I left off last year.
I really hate this strawberry.
It is why I gave up last year.
Am determined to finish it though this year.
pattern that is taking quite awhile.
Last time I had the middle flower completed.
Now I just have most of the right top done.
Lots of color changes in this one.
It is going to be a biggin.
I had finished
the First Day of Christmas.
Partridge in a pear tree.
Two Turtle Doves is now finished.
These still need the beads added...
but will wait and do that once
finished with all of them.
Also once I have all 12 completed,
will turn them into stockings
to have on my Christmas tree.
In other news,
my daughter Michele celebrated
her 44th birthday yesterday.
We are going out to dinner
next week to celebrate.
Michael's doctors would not release
him to go back to work.
It was discovered he has two broken toes...
and his tailbone still needs to heal more.
Maybe next month he can go back to work.
His attorney stated that suing the drunk driver
would probably be a waste of time
as she already has many garnishments
out against her for non-payment...
and no job. Go figure.
Am I surprised...no.
I had a great vacation.
Mom and I spent lots of time together.
We ended up going out to lunch a few days...
and dinner a few days.
Stitched mostly at night while watching tv.
Well off to work.
Cannot believe April is almost over already.
Wednesday Blessings To All!
