There is something so relaxing about just stitching and not worrying about color changes all the time. <BR/><BR/>Love your new stash. What yummy colors of floss you got. The new patterns are great too. I have Always and Forever on order. Isn't the Mer Bleu you recieved wonderful? That's what I'm using now and I love it. It's kind of funny, Schoolgirl lessons was designed in the Rose and I'm doing it in the blue. However A&F was designed in the blue and I'm doing it in the Rose. But then the one is for me and the other for my DD and we have different color preferences. However, I heard there is a wonderful deep purple one, so I may need to check into that one for my DD, as she also loves purples.<BR/><BR/>You've been busy on your book reading. I'm just reading a light quick one, Decaffeinated corpse by Cleo Coyle. It is in her coffeehouse mystery series. The series is fun, and I like all the little pieces of information on coffee and its history it gives. I just finished reading Sins and Needles by Monica Ferris, which was a quick read too.<BR/><BR/>Good luck on your new computer, I'll keep my fingers crossed the transition goes smoothly for you.<BR/>Suestitcherwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11795367484568298951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18201870.post-13359558958498870102008-05-04T10:20:00.000-04:002008-05-04T10:20:00.000-04:00I loved that magazine!

I think I spent more time in that store than I did at school ;o)<BR/><BR/>Your sampler is really coming along! Great stashing too :o)<BR/><BR/>Good luck with your new computer!Pumpkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10310433488261347972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18201870.post-80549974284846420182008-04-30T18:51:00.000-04:002008-04-30T18:51:00.000-04:00Your Red Sampler is looking wonderful!!!!

We got...Hi Judy, lucky you getting a new computer. We got a new one before Christmas and its become a right pain. It keeps shutting down on us. I keep telling my DH to take it back, but you know men. I think half the problem with him taking it back is around an hour drive to our closest large town.<BR/>Well, in regards to the weather, it is 1.41pm at the moment and the temperature is 10.5 degrees C. It is always colder up in the mountains then it is Sydney. We actually get snow up here in the Winter although not like you get it. It usually snows during the night and it is gone around lunch time when the sun out.<BR/>Its quite beautiful up here at the moment as all the trees are changing colour. If I look out my kitchen window I can see that the Pin Oak, Forsythia and Cherry trees are beautiful Autumn shades. Our Plum, Apricot and Apple trees have already lost their leaves. Although I have a white Banksia Rose over our carport and there are a few flowers that for some reason have come out.<BR/>If you read Charles Dickens read David Copperfield first. It is so good. I have the firsty 4-5 Jan Karon books but unfortunately I haven't seemed to be able to find the rest. I agree with you she is a lovely writer. I just enjoyed reading about Father Tim and his adventures with some unique people.<BR/>Your sampler is getting lovelier everytime I see it. I have nearly finished Margaret. I am on the bottom border now and all I have to do is filling in the flowers. Not much at all. If people don't bug me I will finish her tonight. Yay she says. I have already started doing Beatrix Potter and have finished 2 motifs. <BR/>My youngest son is at home on school holidays so I don't get much time on the computer as he is always on it.<BR/>Tomorrow is Anzac Day which is our day to remember all the fine young men who went to war and lost their lives. We celebrate Anzac Day tomorrow because this is the day that so many young men were killed in one of Australia's greatest war battles in Gallipoli Cove in Turkey in WWI. Also this year there are rememberance celebrations in France where thousands of young men died in the Battle of the Somme.<BR/>Hopefully I will be able to update my blog on either Monday or Tuesday as school goes back on Tuesday. Yay she says LOL. Anyway its nice to have a chat, talk to you next week - take care = Sandra.samplerloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17963651957114053583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18201870.post-69699077098611051412008-04-23T21:33:00.000-04:002008-04-23T21:33:00.000-04:00The red sampler looks really nice!!
