Summer Stitching


Good morning!
I started this Prairie Schooler Summer piece a couple days ago..loving it so far ! Hope to get it finished soon since I don't have too many summery stitched pieces.
I have been working on my youngest sons Christmas stocking..

This was on May 3rd..
And here it is now. I try to work on it on the weekends, and work on other things through the week,.It will be beautiful once I finish stitching it and doing the backstitch !

a little ornament from Country Cottage Needleworks

The 2004 Santa from Prairie Schooler.. I have 3 left to stitch of the yearly ones, plus this years ...and then there will be no more !!!!
Have all of my stitchy friends heard about Prairie Schoolers retirement ?
I am happy for them but so sad that what we have is it!

No Roll Sugar Cookies


Happy Monday !
I baked these cookies on Saturday and they are so good ( and easy) ! You should try them !
No Roll Sugar Cookies
1 cup sugar
1 cup butter softened
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 to 3/4 cup chocolate chips ( optional)
Heat oven to 375

Beat sugar and butter until fluffy .. add extracts, and egg.. stir in flour and baking soda..Line a baking sheet with parchment paper..
I used my small cookie scoop to form the balls ..otherwise make small balls and use the bottom of a glass to flatten them . I greased the bottom of the glass.. I then added a handful of chocolate chips to the top of each one and bake for 10-11 minutes
Enjoy them!

I finished May A Year In Chalk ..Just need to mount it so its ready to go May 1st ..
My progress on Trick or Treat  Prairie Schooler ..and I got my youngest sons stocking out yesterday .I will stitch it on Sundays for our #santasundayxs hashtag on Instagram.. Hoping to finish it before Christmas :) Shown below is 2 days progress. going to be alot of stitches in there !! As you can see I cannot stitch without my helper.. I sit down in my chair and she has to be right next to me ..She is saying there is no way this is getting done before Christmas ! lol! Have a great week !

Finally Finished ! The puffy flower blanket and Santa Stocking !

 Good morning ! I finally finished sewing in the ends of my puffy flower blanket .. It is staying in the living room for now.. The aqua and turquoise colors look really pretty with the gray..

 It measures 62 inches by 84 inches..here is the pattern

 I also finished stitching  the year and a half or more long stocking project. This stocking is made by Dimensions ( its a kit)   So many color changes and getting lost and having to redo.. So glad its done.. but I think the new one I started is even worse with color changes !




 I finished a couple more Prairie Schooler Santas, and started another one. Going to have to start finishing them into ornaments !
 This week I had to go for Jury duty... I went on Monday and they let us out at 11:30 for the day, they didn't use any of the 130 jurors they had that day .. I didn't have to go back Tuesday , and yesterday I went but again no jurors were used and we were out by 11:30 and they said we were done for the week ! Can't beat that :)
I started this stocking for my youngest son, got some stitching time in while sitting waiting at Jury duty.
We have had a couple days of really nice weather , but now its back in the 40's ,going to be in the 50's the whole weekend. Hoping to plant our vegetable garden the first of next week if its not too wet and cold. Hoping for some nice weather :)
My college boy is on his way home from Kentucky .. this year seemed to go by so fast ..
