Belated Birthday Gift for Joan

Joan has let me know a few days ago that she received my little birthday gift for her - late, late, late - I am so late with everything these days. I noticed last night that now that the baseball season has started up again, I actually find myself stitching! I cannot read or do office paperwork during games... but stitching works! Maybe I will catch up soon??

Better late than never! I think the birthday girl will love having a "second" birthday celebration - spread out the fun!

We are so hard on ourselves, aren't we? Take some pleasure in stitching during baseball - heaven knows there are a LOT of baseball games!!!

This little fob looks so nice, a great birthday gift.
For every thing there is a season, lol. Stitching during baseball season for you, reading during the summer time for me, lol.

Stretching out the birthday celebration is part of the fun, Carol, especially when it means receiving a treat such as this gorgeous fob. :)

BTW, the irises are so thick this year I'm think I'll have to do some dividing in the fall!
