I am so Lucky!!!!

Luck is kind of subjective don't you think?

My husband looked at the title of my post (before I turned the laptop around) and asked if I really believed this after all we have been through in just the last year.    And yes, I do believe I am lucky.
Thank you all so much for the positive comments re; me selling things.  I will be putting a lot of thought into it but I think I might give it a go.  Thank you xx

Today's ornament from Maggee is a doozie: it is just sooooooo cute.  I adore the snowball and wire trim and hanger.  It is really effective.


And I had a surprise gift from Maggee thanks to a booboo with the wishlists:


I love this little chart..perfect, just perfect.

And finally: eventually, after giving up hope, this arrived!


Yes, Santa's village is finally here.  Not the first one with the fabric but the second one I ordered when there seemed to be no sign of the first.  I will have fabric in my stash no doubt so I can start it.

The other chart is Button up Birdies.  I think 2013 will be a year of the birds for me.  Freedom, travel, flight, all things I would aspire for myself in 2013.

I want my Needlework Masters 2013 book to be filled with birds and so I am going to start with the Cardinal for January.  They are obviously not Irish/UK birds but that doesn't matter. Wings know no borders lol.

Right, all done.  I am going to stitch some of Parsley's Spring exchange whilst watching Olympia 2012.  Ooooo I wish I could be there for real.  Amazing horses and very talented riders.

Catch you laters xxx

  3. What a cute ornament from Maggee. I love the trim.

    Kringle's crow looks like a fun pattern to stitch.

    Button up Birdies and Santa's village will be more fun ones to stitch.

    Wishing you continued luck through 2013 and beyond!

    Hugs!
