Finally, I got word today that the little baby gift I stitched for Karen and Riley arrived in the UK today - a full three weeks after Mike posted it off to them for me. But, I am so relieved that it has arrived safely! It is a little birth announcement and is just tucked into a tuck away pillow - I have been a bit more adventurous with finishing in the last couple of weeks, though ;-)
And, after I finished Violet and Lace Sampler I made some pretty good progress on the next pool on Mystery IX.... 
Daylily: Lighthouse Rose Bouquet (coming down the homestretch - only a few more left that I could name)Stitched on today: Finished a birthday gift, Violet and Lace Sampler and Mystery IX
