Hi,
Just wanted to keep you updated on my progress. This is what I have done so far.
Had a few unwanted visits from Mr. Froggy. He over stayed his welcome, not that I asked him to come and visit me. So I gave him the boot and demanded he not return again. Mean aren't I. LOL
Well I do not have to work for the next two days, so hopefully I will have another update for you either Wednesday night or Thursday morning before I go to work again. Oh why can't I win the lottery so I can stay home and stitch.
My dear friend Rae Ann is working on the same pattern as I am. I started before her, but I bet she is way ahead of me by now. She does things so fast, I don't know how she does it.
Like I said before this ismy first large project, but I am truly enjoying it. Thanks Rae Ann.
So for now I close. Hope you like what you see.
Happy Stitchin
Ruth

Quaker Christmas
Just wanted to post my start of Quaker Christmas. This is the first large project that I am attempting. This took me a day and a half to do.
This was a gift from my very dear friend Rae Ann from Ca . so I am hoping for a very good finish to this. I am enjoying it very much. I am stitchingit with Carrie Creation hand dye floss. I never used hand dyed floss before, and I really like it. Who knows maybe out with DMC. The hand dyed floss works very nicely.
I am hoping to have this done before Christmas. So keep your fingers crossed for me that I will make it in time. I do fight with the fabric alot as I do not use scroll or Q-snaps, I seem to fight with them more. Please feel free to leave comments.
Thanks Rae Ann for such a lovely gift. hope you will be pleased as much as me when it is finished. You truly are a dear friend. God Bless you.
Ruth
