Happy New Year!

Blue Worke~Annie Beez Folk Art

From my house to yours!

I'm wishing you all a very happy, healthy and productive New Year, abundant with blessing for you and those you love!

Good morning! 

I am up early this New Years day to pick up the little one from a sleepover and go to church. It is a holy day of obligation for we catholics, which I guess could keep some of us from too much revelry on New Years eve! 

 I haven't been much of an early riser these days, with the boys home from college I find myself up late watching movies with them and such.(we have watched all 10 hours of LOTR on blue ray for example) .

I had a very quiet New Years eve which I thoroughly enjoyed, stitching and watching Jane Austen movies. 

I have been thinking about the new year, what plans I have for Annie Beez Folk Art in 2013 and so forth. I have been putting in the last stitches on the final chart in the Quilty Neighborhood series and am now working on the charting

 and planning the release date.

Finished stocking

Happy Christmastide!

Such a busy time, I'm sure you are all just as busy too!

I did manage to do the finishing on the stocking on time.

My new son-in-law was simply thrilled, which of course made it all worth it!

His reaction was very sweet and gratifying!

 I love this stocking so much, and plan to make 2 more of Mary Beale's sampler stockings this year, one for my husband and one for myself!

Here it is with my other favorite stocking-my daughter's.

I made this for her when she was little, and I have always loved it so much. I don't know where the pattern came from-possibly one of those Vanessa Ann books, remember those anyone?

So the two stockings went to their new home this year, and I must say I will miss my daughter's. It is one of the things I have  treasured every year when I unwrap it for Christmas.

Sigh!

Merry Christmas to All!

On this very Christmas night...

Peace to you and your loved ones.

What I get for trying to be organized

A lot of guff from my family! 

That's what I get!

I bought a new dry-erase month at a glance calendar with magnets on the back that I can tack on my refrigerator. It has a space for my schedule and for "their" schedules. 

You should have heard the laughter!

 OK, I am not known around these parts for being organized, but when I do try I think I should be at least encouraged! 

Right? 

Yes I should!

 

I carefully filled in all of the activities for this week and hung it up. And so far, I like it! OK, I didn't fill in the dinner menu-I mean you can't expect me to commit a week in advance, can you?

So this morning I went in the kitchen to get my coffee and "glance" at my new calendar, and this is what some Wise-enheimer added,

Ha Ha Ha! Everyone is a comedian!
