.... And, more of this :-) With another snowstorm due in by midday tomorrow, it just still feels enough like Christmas here in New England to still have the urge to work on this one.

A Gift for Karen
I just heard from Karen that she received a gift that I sent off to her a while ago... it took a bit longer to reach her than I thought it would (although nothing compared to a gift I sent to Australia back in November... that still is not there). I chose to stitch her a mattress pincushion using a Shepherd's Bush freebie that I have had for the very longest time - and I knew how much she loves SB!

My luck with the post has not been good lately, either.

You are making fantastic progress on QC. The more I see this the more I'd like to stitch it but it's so..... BIG!

Oh Carol, everything you've stitched recently is so beautiful! This mattress pincushion is so cute, what a lovely gift.
Thank you also for posting the NASCAR video, my son (10 years old) enjoyed watching them with me, as he has been ill for a week now and still has fever :( Anyway, he's a huge fan of Formula One racing and enjoyed watching something different :)
Have a happy weekend!

How'd if fair with the winter storm...let me tell you...it is one sheet of ice here. The city is immobilized, the salt does no good, we can't get out of our drive way because it slants up...and yesterday evening we attended a Birthday party at our neighbors and we walked and I thought we were going to have to form a human chain to get to their house...terrible...we're even cancelling our date for this evening :( guess it's stitching all weekend for me :)
