Here are a few of the things I made:

In other news tomorrow my friend Holly and I are going to go get into trouble...a good kind of trouble that is (antiquing). I will post some of the treasures I find if I should get anything good that is. ;0)

I hope you are all well and staying warm. I don't know about you but tomorrow it's suppose to be 60 here and I am looking forward to that very much.

Hugs,

Our Big Snow Storm

On Friday it started to snow here in Maryland and it kept snowing until Saturday evening.  Hubby and I shoveled on and off to keep things manageable.  We ended up getting 30" of snow which is a lot for this area.  

Kiddo had a great time but the snow was deeper then anything he's seen so far.  He found out real fast it's hard to walk in LOL!!!

Today the sun is shining and clean up is pretty much done.  We are waiting for a plow to come clean off our road though. 

I hope everyone that got hit by this storm is doing well.  We managed to keep our power which made things so much easier.  Stay safe out there...clean up is going to take a little while for the road crews.

Hugs,

Theresa

I had a lot of fun this month creating goodies.  I always have to push myself because there are so many talented ladies in this group.  It's amazing what all of them make every month!!!

Antiquing in PA

Yesterday my sweet friend Holly and I decided to spend the day antiquing in PA. To say we had a great day finding goodies is a understatement.  We drove to Lititz and hit two of our favorite shops "Days Gone By Creations" and "The Moravian House".  Then after a wonderful lunch at JoBoy's across the street we drove down to "Burning Bridge Antiques" in Columbia. 

What a fun girls day out it was!!!  Here are a few of my finds.  A few I can't show since they will be birthdays gifts LOL!!!

New design

I've been working on stitching a new design.  It's been floating around in my head for a few weeks now and finally I had some time to stitch it.  I wanted to share it with you all.  I still have to finish it but at least you can see all the stitching. 

I hope everyone's New Year has started off well.

Hugs,

Theresa

Happy New Year!!!

Wishing everyone a safe and happy New Year!!!  May 2016 be the best year for us all!!!!

Christmas finishes

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas.  It's hard to believe it's already all over with and tomorrow will be New Year's Eve.  Where does the time go?

I wanted to share a few of the stitches I did for family and friends.  I have always tried to make some hand mades for loved ones.  It just seems like a special way to say I love you.  

This piece was for my sister JoAnn.  I used a Chessie and Me pattern to make it.

 Here is what I made some of my sweet friends. I forgot to take a picture of them finished but you get the idea LOL!!!

I decided my mother would love my blog hop piece and since it's my first punch pattern ever.... I gave it to her. I think she was happy with that. :0)

My friend Holly finally got her Pineberry Lane- Black Jack pumpkin...I did him in orange for her though.  She was so surprised...she said she thought she'd have to wait forever before getting one.  

I also managed to finish a stitch I've been working on for the last few years.  I guess you could say a Christmas gift to myself LOL!!!

My hands are never to far away from my stitching needle...it's what makes me happy.  

I hope this post finds you all happy and healthy!!! Happy New Year too!!!

Hugs,

Theresa
