Half way through the year

Well, since for some reason I decided to be responsible at work lately and write progress notes and treatment plans, call in treatment authorizations and things like that, and I haven't been stitching much at work in the past couple of weeks. So.... I brought the Papillon Creations Mystery Sampler home with me tonight and I plan to fit it in during the weekend to get it done. I stitched the better part of the center section tonight. Now all I have left to do is to stitch a few more flowers and then toss my initials into the center... I still really love the colors of the Vikki Clayton silks in this sampler!

The year is half over now! Hard to believe!!!! I thought about checking in now on my stitching goals for 2006, but I cannot find them posted anywhere - LOL!!

Stitched on today: Papillon Creations Mystery Sampler

I ought to review what I accomplished so far this year too.. I just need to cool down first, its blistering hot and I just finished vacuuming the house!

Stitching goals, smitching goals, I say. At the beginning of the year I made a list too, and since we're halfway through the year, it's safe to say that I won't be meeting any of the goals. No more lists for me!
I love your Papillon sampler. I see you decided not to stitch the peacock. Good decision, if you ask me!

What an awesome looking sampler ... not one I'm keen to stitch myself, but I love looking at yours :) Thanks, too, for the offer of playing postmistress for me - Jenna's been pricing things up for me, and already offered to be the middleman for me - but I really appreciate the offer ... you're a true sweetheart with a heart of gold :D {{hugs}}

So close to being finished! It's beautiful, Carol. :D
Goals can be useful - and I LOVE checking off items on a list - but life sometimes takes us down streams we didn't foresee. So no regrets about missed goals. :D

Lovely sampler piece. Get it finished, framed and hung up. It's too beautiful to let it sit in a project bag. Thanks for your kind gesture yesterday.

I so enjoy all your beautiful work. When I search for Women of the Mayflower pattern, your blog comes up. Do you know who publishes(ed) the pattern? Thanks for your help.
