Wow! Has another week gone by already? It's Whatcha Working on Wednesday over at My Country Home, and I have just a few things to share. This is my first Needlepunch project. It's coming along okay I think, though I'm not really sure what I'm doing. I just bought a book at Hobby Lobby, and taught myself. It bugs me that I have to stop punching, separate the floss and rethread the needle so often. I'm really impatient with things like that. I bought the hoop recommended in the book, but it still doesn't hold the fabric tight enough, so I have to adjust that often too. I'm enjoying it though, and I should have it done soon, just a few more little areas and then the background will be black with a little charcoal mixed in.
I've also completed several more of these guys. Some are for orders, and the others I'll add to my selling blog in a day or two.
So that's it for me this week. Be sure to hop over to Leslie's and see what others have been working on!

I like your little punch needle so far! I want to do that...that's something I need to decide to learna and do it. I have this punch needle thing that my Gram bought me many years ago for Christmas and I never messed with it. I actually found the punch needle in my box with craft paint so apparently I found it at my Mom's at some point and brought it here and I didn't throw it out yet! LOL I wonder if I could figure it out, though, I don't have the book anymore....
Your bunnies are cute, too.
I can't even think about gardening...it's still winter here....soon enough and then I'll be crazy trying to get all of the beds under control!
Have a great night!

Well I have a x-stitch sampler I started over a year ago and there it sits. I love the stuff, but get too antsy sitting too long. I'd rather paint...hehehe.
Any ways...I love the idea of several different kinds of lavender in a group. Lavender does well here in the Mojave and you have inspired me to do something like your garden.
I am sure the angel is keeping a watchful eye as is my St. Francis.
Love your blog,
Barb
