I want to wish everyone a very happy, healthy and blessed new year. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog and to comment. I want to welcome my new followers!
I hope everyone had a lovely time last night and that you are enjoying a nice day. We had a quiet (as quiet as a home with a jazzed up 9 yo can be! !) evening with lots of snacks and games. We celebrated the new year at 9pm so little man could get to bed! :-)
Today we are enjoying a lazy day. I made a start on my Frosty Forest piece. I am stitching it on 32ct. LL Flagstone. My LNS didn't have Pearl Grey but this is very close. I plan on stitching and knitting the day away. My daughter wants to go to Joann's and Michaels, so I will join her to do that, but otherwise you will find me in my chair with a cuppa! :-) My hubby requested a Jane Austen movie for tonight. (Yes, he is the greatest! He's a country boy from Oklahoma who loves Jane Austen! He says real men love Jane Austen! ) Anyway! ;-)
I have decided to join the Stitch from Stash group this year. With having a house for sale still in Arizona and rent here, I need to be careful! :-) I really like the rules that they have set up for this group. I think it will help me stay on track. The only patterns I plan on buying will be the Frosty Forest series and at least some of the Calendar Girls series. I definitely want February since that is my birthday month. But we will see how well that goes! Santa Pickle gave me a gift card to my LNS for Christmas, so that will help too. :-)
I have made some plans of what I would like to stitch for the year, but we will see how that goes. ;-) I did pretty well with my goals for last year.
Well, daughter is ready to go, so I had best head out with her!
Happy stitching!
Love, Heather

This new series is so cute!! Hope your day was just as you planned!
It's going to be nice watching your progress on this series.
I sure hope your AZ house sells quickly, Heather!! I look forward to seeing what you "stitch from stash" this year... your new start is darling :)
Wishing you a joyful New Year!
I hope you had a good day with your DD. Good luck with your goals!
Happy New Year Heather. A little late but never mind!
Looking forward to seeing your progress on Frosty Forest. I haven't started mine as want to finish the sheep first.
Good luck with Stitch from Stash. I am hoping I can do well :)
I am glad houses are a favorite subject for chart makers because it allows us to stitch them. I'm very fond of sampler-houses, too.
Wow, 32 count linen. I admire your ability to make the tiny stitches. I'm comfortable with 28 count but I am attempting 30 this year - with a magnifying lens and glasses.
Happy knitting, too, Heather.
