I'm sorry that I don't have any stitching photos to show you...yet.

I'm still working on my new teaching project that will premier in May at the Inn Stitches Spring Fling. As a teaser, I can tell you that there will be a wonderful painted wooden box with ball feet and a lid. Some of the items that will be inside are a pincushion, a three-sided scissors weight, a custom-made hornbook threadholder, and a very special needlebook. There are 19 different stitches on the project.

My stitching time seems limited these days. This past weekend our son, daughter-in-law, and 10-month old grandson were here. As you can see from the photos, Garrett is quite a character.
  


Boy, does he like to entertain us!  Such a happy baby and so full of smiles and laughter.


I need to get back to working on my model, but hopefully I can show you some stitching photos soon.

Oh my goodness, what a cutie pie! No wonder your stitching time is limited. With that adorable little boy I would want to spend my time with him too. :)

He is a cutie! What a great thing that you are close enough to spend time with him and his parents. I love the nose/spoon pic!

Can't wait to see the new class - the box sounds awesome.
