Life With Jules, and other stuff

Well, I managed to finish almost the entire Caroling Snowman design last night. I started the backstitching, which is all I have left. This is where I finally put it down: I will probably finish the backstitching today, so I am calling this my first finish of the year as well! Yay!!!! I spent a little time on Butterfly Shamrock Wreath on Sunday and this is where I left off: I reported for Jury Duty on Monday morning. We went through the orientation process. One panel was called (my name was not on that list). The next panel was called (again not me). Then around 10am, the Jury Room Supervisor announced that if you weren’t called for either panel or filled out the form you were excused for the year!!! Yay!!!!!!!! I was sooooo happy. Oh, when I went to Barnes & Noble Saturday evening to get my magazines, I also picked up this little fella: He was yummy! Until next time…

I did a little bit of stitching on Coming Home last night, but not enough to really show a picture of at this time. This afternoon, however, I finally finished Makin’ New Friends into a pillow. The recipient is my step-mom! She made a comment 2 Christmases ago that she loves snowmen and I thought this would make a perfect gift for her, albeit a little late! I am having my dad take it to water aerobics with him tomorrow afternoon to give to her (yes, they have been divorced for 40 years, but they are friends and in an exercise class together, LOL). Anyhoos, here are some pics of the finished product: Makin’ New Friends VIEW SLIDE SHOW DOWNLOAD ALL ...
