A weekend of stitching! We watched football, caught up on our dvr shows & I stitched! Took time out Saturday for Jacobs football game..they won!! Great job Jacob! Did some housework inside & out but mostly I stitched!!

I have been working on my picture Christmas ornaments. Every year since my kids were born, I make them an ornament & I put their picture in the middle. I also started making them for my nieces & nephews too so now I make 11 of them every year. I am getting tired of the same patterns so if anyone has any photo ornament patterns that they are willing to share, please let me know!!! This is a picture of the first one done for this year & the next one started! I will keep showing you them as I go!

Way to go Bengals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Fall! I finished the Bengal shirt but I forgot to take a pictureof it! My grandma loved it!! I will try to get a picture soon! I am glad she had it for Sundays game! Way to go Begals!!

I made one of the Halloween ornaments from the new magazine. I decided toput a magnet on the back & hang it on the fridge. I think I will make a few more Halloween ones then start on Christmas!! I love this time of year!!

Lots of cleaning to do today! I keep stitching and stitching for others but no one cleans my house for me!?!

Have a great first day of fall!!!!

Welcome to the Jungle!!! My grandma has been wanting a Bengals sweatshirt for a year now & has not received one so I have decided to make her one! I am hoping to have it done by Saturday so she can wear it for the season!
Victoria did great in her volleyball game last night! She had 8 serves in a row last night & 18 in a row last Thursday! She is really doing super!! Jacob had another good football game! He is starting to like tackling people more and more! Boys!!!

Off to try & get some stitching done before the day gets to crazy! Have a great day!!

Its almost done!!! I see the light at the end of the tunnel!!! We were so busy yesterday with Victorias volleyball and Jacobs football that I didnt have much time to stitch but not today! Today I am going to get this done!! I am already thinking of my next project! I think I am going to do a few small Halloween items for some of my friends! I love giving things away!! Hopefully I will have a finished picture to post in a day or two at the most!!

Jacob had his first football game this past Saturday, I do not like it!! I was worried the entire time! Hes the quarterback & no one blocked for him! I hated to see him on the bottom of the pile!!! Only 7 more games to go. Help me!!! I love baseball!!!!!
