WOOHOO!
I finished not one but two projects.
If you notice the birds are on
a very long stem of leaves and berries.
On the backside of this pattern
was the original stitched piece.
Very faintly I could detect a vase.
It would not show up in my picture,
so you have to trust me.
Since I kept seeing this vase,
I decided to try and graph it out
as best I could.
With doing that I then had
to move the date 1849 to below Eliza's name.
I think this turned out pretty good.
I then turned it into a pretty big pillow
by adding some coffee stained fabric at the bottom,
while tying a frayed ribbon bow around it.
I will now put it out when I decorate
for Valentine's Day.
I was also happy to get Cupid's Sampler
finished and off to the framer it went.
(Hobby Lobby)
This pic makes it look cock-eyed...
but truly in person it is framed perfectly.
I cannot take great pics it seems. LOL
The frame I picked out looks really good...
again me thinks it does.
Cannot wait now to put these both
out for display now and future Valentine's.
In other news,
On the way home from the doctor Monday
we saw not one but five eagles on the ice
10 minutes North of us.
With the ice jam by our house...
no open water for the ducks,
so they have moved North....so did the eagles.
We saw three adults and two juveniles.
Wednesday we had about 7 inches of snow.
It started before I left work.
By the time I got home at 4:30 it was
snowing pretty good.
Tundra was loving it though.
He did not want to come in.
More snow is expected for us tomorrow
(3-5 inches)
Again more on Sunday.
I am so over Winter...but February
here in Michigan is usually when snow comes
on our side of the state.
Hope everyone has a fantastic Valentine's Day!
We are just going to go to our favorite
take out chicken place for some
broasted chicken and potatoes
and eat at home for dinner tonight.
St Valentine Blessings To All!
