Goodbye, my friend!


"Leap of Faith"
From Bucilla
Finished June 26th, 2014
 
 
Framed about 2 hours before it was given... Lots of time, right? I figured this was very appropriate, seeing as how this girl is going to the Yukon to serve in a remote community for 5 weeks, and then in the fall she's off to Alberta for Bible College... We spent last night with co-workers past and present, eating, and then hanging out around a fire pit and watching fireworks... She will be missed...

Easter Bunny!


"On The Hop"
From CrossStitcher Magazine # 277
Designed by Sarah Cookland
Finished April 12th, 2014
 
I wanted to do something quick and easy because I feel like I've fallen behind on my resolutions... This literally took less than an hour to stitch... I popped on some jump rings and put it on a chain instead of the silk cord the magazine calls for... I think it turned out really cute, and I will be wearing it to work for the next few days...
 
Until I go on my short vacation, that is... Yup! I've booked 6 days off around the Easter holiday... I needed some time away from work... This includes a couple of days with the family in Ottawa, so good times shall be had... Kicking the whole thing off with a visit to Port Huron and their lovely craft stores...
 
Just have to get thru the next 4 days of work...

In Other News...

So, working on my little resolutions... Been hanging out with friends, watching TV, or movies... Or Coriolanus on the big screen, which was absolutely fabulous, btw...

Next up on the entertainment schedule: War Horse, playing live at the local movie house as a simulcast with tons of other movie theatres... It's the same deal as Coriolanus... Which makes me super excited...

After that, Toronto for a "HiddleHunt" as my friend calls it, and Imagine Dragons... In April, six whole days off of work and a trip to Ottawa...

I think things are progressing awesome...

Finished!!!

There Is Progress...

Hopefully, at some time tomorrow, I will have a finish...

You know, unless I get super distracted by the computer, or going out, or television, or something...

Just sayin'... Could happen...
