My Cape Has “P” On It

First, Thanks for all the wonderful comments.  

Blogger use to shoot them to my email, but, not happening anymore. I am feeling better and now just waiting to hear from physician offices.  

I have been off work this week and working on exercising, building up my endurance and gradually weaning off the prednisone.  

It is quite the medication.  

It has really helped but, comes with some side effects.  

You don't sleep much on this stuff, it has gotten better since I dropped to 20 mg.  

It does really wire you up during the day.

I feel superhuman, my cape has a big ole "P" on it.  

I have been getting stitched pieces finished.  

Finished everything but the strawberry from the Summer Schoolhouse Samplers from

With Thy Needle and Thread.

Just absolutely love these pieces!

My Joanne Fabrics box turned out great too.  

My husband did a great job chalk painting it for me.  

Framed Chessie and Me Angels O'er This House (I think)

It was sitting in the closet and I had a frame it would fit into.  

I had redone the initials because the charted floss blended too much with the grass.  

My first attempt at pin drum.

Its a little lopsided but, my friend Arttie says, "It's primitive."

It is Acorn House from Heartstring Samplery.  

Not sure I'm, going to do more of these...finishing is well....

Framed Painted Threads Sampler from Threadwork Primitives.  

I saw it, had to buy it, and Kendra had it at the Bee when I stopped and immediately started stitching it.  

I don't know why it grabbed me so!

I have been working on Margaret Cottam Sampler that was a three piece project, maybe a mystery?

I am nearly done with the border.

Can't wait to get started on the guts.  

I am part of the SAL for Sarah Braizear 1829 from Hands Across the Sea Samplers.  

I finally got the rest of the over dyes yesterday in the mail.  

I am doing it on 40 count Flax.  

It is monumental but, very cool.  

Not sure I will get it done in the time frame but, will give it the old college try.  

So many patterns, so little time. 

I have been following a few Floss Tube channels. 

I really like the Saltbox Stitcher and Primitive Stitcher.  

I also like Vonna Pfeiffer's channel.  

I should have watched the turtorial on pin drums....maybe before, do I dare say it, attempt another one.  

I have kind of a hard time with the silly ones that laugh and joke for an hour.  

I must be too serious.  

I ride my exercise bike and watch these.  

That about wraps it up.  

I assure you, I am feeling better and thank you again for the kind words and prayers.  

Keep on Stitching
