Flowers and birds and doggies oh my!

Well, it's Thursday and normally I'm off hanging with my pups but so behind at the shop that I came in early to try to get caught up--Earlier this week I FINALLY moved into this century and got a smartphone--turned in my dinosaur! Took a pic of Nemo this morning-sad as his Mollygirl was heading out again--Not to worry, buddy, I'll be home early to play in the yard!

I will be adding more new items "to come" tomorrow-was so happy to see the new Cricket Collection charts arrived yesterday--Am going to take the Flower Power chart, button, and 20WDW Guacomole to stitch up this little cutie...see the picture from Shepherds Bush above! The chart is free with the purchase of the button--(I was such a "Flower Power kid-had stickers all over my wall mirror !)

Above is one of the new Country Cottage charts that will be within the next few weeks-along with the May Cottage-it feels like May out there, doesn't it?? Enjoy-and don't forget to catch all of the beautiful colors of Spring these next few weeks!

Coming soon from Cricket Collection

Howdy all! Beth and I just found these and love-love-love these! You know which one is our very favorite--be sure to see these soon!

Hope all is good with you all-we've been busy trying to get all of the new goodies in from the Market--Beth and I were sooo disappointed that we couldn't go this year--hopefully there will be a show in Baltimore again--I haven't checked yet...

Been stitching lots of little birdies--finished the bird in Blackbird's Autumn book and now on to Old Crow from La D Da...if you're in check the new model wall for four models that I have stitched--will try to get a picture posted later this week!
Off to order more new things-I hope you've been enjoying what has been released! And on to decide our Wacky Wednesday theme!

Take care and be good to your loved ones! Molly

Post Game

Hi all-Hope you all are doing well-we had a wonderful weekend at the shop...many thanks to all that attended-so many familiar and not-so-familiar faces...we soooo appreciate all of you that came, emailed, sent orders in...and to all that worked--Stella, Mary Anne, Phyllis, Nancy, Connie, Catherine, Lise, Ruthie, and Beth---thank you for all of your hard work, your smiles, your laughter--we had such a great time...I am so very fortunate to work with people I like AND love!

We are working furiously on cleaning up, ordering, processing orders and getting them out as quickly as possible...in the meantime, the above were seen as "coming soon" from Country Cottage, Raise the Roof, and Trilogy....look for lots more as the Nashville Market quickly approaches!
Keep stitching-keep enjoying our mild winter (for some and for now!) and thanks for stopping by! Have a good rest of your week-

Molly

Howdy all-Here we are another Wacky Wednesday-we are almost halfway through January -according to my AM radio show 92% of people that make resolutions have already quit--I am in the 8%...are you? If you are with me in the 8% what motivation!! If you are not, get back on that horse and keep trying!!
I tried a Pilates exercise program on demand this am-it was terrific but long!-I made it halfway through before my legs were quaking...and then I tried some Yoga but got my ears completely licked! ) Those silly puppies!
Am so excited about future designs-the above is the first of the 2012 Little House Needlework designs--and I love it! I stitched both the angel and one of the snowmen from the 2010 for Christmas gifts for my godmother/aunt...and I really like LHN graphs and designs! So here's the first one due in within the next few weeks...
Well, hope all of you are doing well...and thank you for your kind words about my last year's challenge--I'm now considering another challenge as I realized how many projects I stitched !!
Take care!! Molly

Idiots are we!

Well, Beth and I have had some kind of day-spent hours trying to figure out why our printer wouldn't work-and you know how the techies always ask (like you're some kind of idiot) "It is plugged in, right?" And you always think,"I'm not that stupid!" Well, we proved that theory wrong-the printer had come unplugged and neither of us realized--duh!

One of my goals this year is to get a blog entry up each week-this week, I am showing a sneak peek of a design you know I will do--look at those adorable foxes!! I haven't seen any of my foxes as of late--I do usually see them come Springtime--

Have almost gotten my Inn at Fox River Mill by LH-I have changed it slightly with an additional baby fox-will get a pic up tomorrow or Fri--

Got major grief about my stitching challenge of '11--I did finish 4 of the 10 projects with 3 more close to being finished-I personally think that is fantastic-and while I did add a couple in there (also finished) I consider it a success-so now I am inspired to finish those 3 and know that the last three were not going to completed in the year 2011-too big/complicated...so look for updates on those--

Hope all is good with you all-how are all of your projects progressing??

xoxo Molly

Happy New Year!

Well Happy New Year and we made it! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!! It certainly went quickly and here we are facing a new year...I am sooooo happy and relieved to be beyond the rush-to be headed toward a quieter day in New Year's Day-a day to fix up my calendar, make my resolutions, and take the day to stitch while in my pjs!! My favorite kind of day! I looked back at last year's resolutions-laugh more, stress less and think that will be my top resolution again this year...Stitch more is #2! Blog more is #3...

Blackbird Designs has released "Winter" which is the third in a three part booklet-love all of the projects in this new book.

Will be here tomorrow for the 30% off day-hope to see you sometime soon!! Have a safe and fun weekend-Take care of you!

Merry Christmas to all!

Hi all-Beth and I were talking-it was really just yesterday that we were getting ready for Christmas and for inventory-my grandmother was so right-she gave me two pieces of advice:

1. Don't wear lipstick-it stains your lips-once you start wearing it you'll have to continue--Didn't listen--Beth calls me a lipstick "ho"!

2. Enjoy each day-life goes faster and the older you get the faster it goes!

My goal at this point is always New Year's Day-I'm home-the shopping/the rush is over-I can enjoy a day off with NOTHING to do but sit with my pups and stitch!

I have posted two pictures of one of Blue Ribbon's future designs (and I'm a big Shaker fan) due out in February at Nashville-that will be here before you know it--right, Catherine G?? Cannot wait to see more Spring designs...you?

I hope you all enjoy your holidays-I hope you get some time for you-and don't forget to check in next week for special fun at TSS!! Merry Merry!!
