Two Peas in a Pod

I decided to switch over to "Two Peas in a Pod" from the Cross Stitch and Country Crafts, May/Jun 1991 issue.  This is for my two Chunky Monkeys Caleb and Cole.


Caleb is the one in the back and Cole is front and center.


This is what it will look like once it's complete. Sorry for the glare

Old Friend

I got this from eBay and it arrived today. This called "Old Friend" by Stoney Creek Collection 2003.
It reminded me of my son Jason's old teddy bear. I'm going to do this for my grandson Oliver, Jason's and Ashley's baby Oliver due in this July.


Old Friend

I'm still also doing Bucilla's The Little Explorer Birth Record for Oliver.



This is what I've stitched for far.

My Cross Stitch Corner

This is my cross stitch corner stitching buddies and all. The pole in the background is my full spectrum lamp.

I know it looks like a mess but other then the red planner everything is carefully organized.

Happy June 2015!!!

I did get 1 finish in the month of May.  It was a 10 yr old UFO. I plan to make it into a pillow and give it to the intended recipient. I'm challenging myself to finish one project a month, lets see how that works for me.


I found a Noah's Ark Birth sampler for baby boy Cannon. I put Happy Nappers away for a while. I'll be stitching on 1 of 4 baby samplers.
