Well, i have been busy with stitching, finishing, etc. Doug has been out of town most of this past month between work and hunting. He was a successful hunter, he got his Elk, so another year of a freezer full of elk meat.
I also stitched and finished my ornament for Ruth for the HoHoHo Ornament Exchange we are in. I really like how this one turned out and will be stitching it for myself as well, hopefully soon. I was fortunate enough to be able to hand deliver it to Miss Ruthie when she was here in Tempe AZ for a convention. We had a nice dinner along with my daughter Caitie who is at ASU. It was really great to hang with Ruth, enjoy a really nice dinner out and stitching with her afterwards for awhile. Hugs Ruthie!
I have also finished and sent ahead of time (yeah, finally on time) my fair & square pieces for Jill. Jill is very quick and finished them into a floss tag the day after she rec'd them from me. You go girl! They turned out great in a floss tag!
On the finishing front, i have a few recent finishes to share. I have a couple pieces for Michele who brought them to me in April. LOL I finished the Flamingo she stitched as a hanging pinkeep and her fair & square pieces from Veronica as a pinkeep in shape of a heart.
I also just finished 3 pieces for Eileen. There is the Santa ornament, fall ornament (i believe this is a JBW design) and Smell My Feet into a no sew cube. Out of the 3 I am partial to the fall ornament and really wanted to keep it. LOL But i sent it off to Eileen. sigh...... I really hope Eileen likes them even better in person. The pics aren't the greatest, they are from my phone, as Doug also has the camera with him. GRRRR
I recently worked on Sharon's RR piece from The Society's RR that has stalled for quite a few months. I finally got her piece and stitched it up. Now to stitch on Shelleen's piece as well.
My last picture is of the 2nd ornament i finished for my LNS, The Attic. This is another of the ornaments for Sue's Legacy.
I also have another finish, Practice Sampler by Milady's Needle, but i obviously didn't take a pic yet (finished it a few weeks ago). I will take a pic tomorrow and post it. Hopefully i might have another small finish to go along with it. keeping fingers crossed. LOL

You have been busy - love all your stitching and finishes!
Wow Karen, lots of fantastic finishes! Congrats on the ones you made and the ones you received as well. Every year I tell myself I will contribute something to The Attic's ornament auction but each year I don't get it done. Bravo for you!
Wow, Karen, your finishes are really gorgeous.
Oh WOW !!! Your finishes are awesome, and I'm in love with the flamingo--she's great!
Wonderful finishes! I really love your Christmas ornaments; you do such nice finishing.
I think you've done an awesome job in the stitching and the finishing. Of course my favorite is my RR piece. :-)
