Hunks, Wins, and Stash....oh my!

Let me start by saying, Thanks for the wonderful comments about my box!  
You all are so wonderful.

I took some pictures of my hunky guys getting ready to go 4 wheeling.  

Can you tell that Ed looks thrilled about this.  
They did have a blast.  
I was at the Stitching Bee last week for some retail-therapy.  
I had won one of the signed patterns from Norden Crafts.  
I also got news last night that I won floss from Nancy's birthday drawing at
Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe.
She always has great drawings!
 Years ago I had seen the saying (on this La-D-Da sampler) somewhere else.  
I thought it would be a great saying on a sampler.  
When I saw it on the La-D-Da, I knew I would have to get it.
 I looks to be a quick stitch!
 I have become a HUGE fan of Lori's at Notforgotten Farm Samplers.  
This will pop into a nice square frame of which I have a few.  
Love the little row of pumpkins
 I got a piece of 40 count Lakeside Linens Exemplaire for the Carpe Diem piece.  
 I needed to replenish my black overdyes.  I plan on using the GAST Raven for Halloween Town by the Primitive Hare in last years JCS Halloween issue.  
The other colors are for Ghoul Tidings in this years
Currently, I'm working on Prairie Schooler August....I should be working on September but...
 The ear of corn looks better in the picture.  You can see the difference in the yellows better.  
 I think the rooster is quite handsome!
It is stitching up pretty quick.  I really haven't put much time into it.  
That about sums it up.  One more day of work.  Maybe I will have some time to stitch.
Hope you have been having a great week and a wonderful weekend!
Keep on stitching
Monica
