Just another little stitching update tonight. Bordeaux Sampler this time. This is such a pretty band - very delicate.
Other than that, life is just quiet and serene. I am, however, a bit nervous about some gifts that are out in the mail and have not arrived where they should - most especially one sent to Italy more than two weeks ago now. Hopefully all will arrive soon.
Oh, here is a clip of my brother in law on Two and a Half Men - when Judith (the bride) comes down the aisle and appears shocked to see Charlie (Charlie Sheen) in the wedding party, the camera goes to Ryan Stiles the groom - the grey haired gentleman pursing his lips tightly together over Ryan's shoulder is my BIL :-) You can see him again (he is the best man) a little later in the video at the altar. Sorry the lip sync is so poor on this!

I don't want to worry you Carol, but have you seen the postal rules about sending needlework to Italy? There was a thread on Legacy a little while ago about it - the stuff they don't allow is....
"Haberdashery and sewn articles of any kind, including trimmings and lace; handkerchiefs; scarves; shawls, needlework including stockings and gloves; bonnets, caps, and hats of any kind."
Did you write needlework on the customs declaration?
Bordeaux looks stunning!
Bordeaux looks wonderful. That is such a funny clip that your BIL is in.
I sympathize with your mail woes, Carol. I sent a pretty big birthday packet to the US nearly a full month ago and it still hasn't arrived. I wish I'd sent it insured now!!!
BS looks wonderful. Your stitching is, as always, gorgeous.
That band is really pretty!
Your postman and mine are always so lovely and fast, they work so well together! I suppose that's why having to wait for more than a week for a package to arrive has us worrying :o) I sent another package to the US weeks ago, and it hasn't arrived yet either!
Bordeaux is a marvel!
What a gorgeous piece. My kitchen has the wine/cheese/grapes theme - going on with the border around it! Lovei t!
The clip is too cool! I bet that was a really fun job. Thanks for sharing, I meant to watch but something happened(probably related to a child:) and I didn't get a chance. I am with you on the mail stuff. I am awaiting word that a package I sent to the Middle East arrived. I'll will keep my fingers crossed for both of us. P.S. Your work is so beautiful as usual. I can't wait to see Paradise Lost and Bordeaux sampler completed. (please forgive my spelling errors)
Bordeaux is looking just fantastic.
I'm just loving following you and Jo's progress on Paradigm lost too. They are looking stunning.
I love the band you are working on in BS this week.
I hope your mail arrives at it's destination soon and safely.
This looks great Carol, how many more bands are there?
