An update on my stitching projects..


I wanted to share a picture of my Moonlit Garden since I have been getting little snippets of time to work on it. I do think it is such a wonderful design and fun to stitch. I am ready to get it finished and hang up since I have one more to do before I start Christmas stitching. Seems like the fall is passing so quickly and yet August just drug on and on.

This is the display for Operation Christmas Child that is starting at our church. I had to dig out some of my Christmas stuff so that it would be festive. We usually send about 200 boxes filled to the brim with items for the children. This is a program through the Billy Graham Ministry.


This is about the size pillow form I am going to use to make the pillow out of my Noah"s ark cross stitch. I think it will be cute on the bed. I will show you a picture when I get it done.


I have to search through my material until I find what I want to put on the back and sides...then I will get it put together. Hopefully this week I can get that done and on to something else.
I will be around to visit all of your wonderful blogs and all your fall decorations too. I still have not decided about my front porch but I had better do it soon! Be blessed.

Your stitching is lovely. Thanks for stopping by. We move in one month so the push is on. I will post our journey since we will be renovating the whole house. OH MY GOODNESS!!

This stitchery is really beautiful.

Operation Christmas Child is a great project, isn't it? So practical and a good project for families to do together.

The stitchery is coming along nicely. Love the stars on it. Where is the time going? September needs to be about 3 months long and then we can have October. Hope school is going well. ~Ann

I love your stitching. I used to cross stitch quite a bit but haven't done any lately. This makes me want to start again. I'm working on a needlpoint Santa (and it may be several years before it's finished if I don't work more). I'm hoping to make a pillow from it.

Good progress Dianntha :o) I love your Noah's Ark. I have that pattern and never thought to change the colors like that.
