The last Little House pattern of 2010

Happy Monday to all-just cruising through designer's websites and blogs-the above will be the last design in 2010 from Little House-very pretty-can't believe that we will be seeing this weather soon enough and that the end of 2010 is that close-Ugh!
Had a great weekend-Beth and I did a girl's day out on Friday-we went to Sephora, The Loft, Macy's and Cheesecake Factory. Fabulous day from start to end. My only regret is that I went with the Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake (good but not great) and not the new Reese's decadent one with chocolate cake and caramel-I know, I know...I am one of those people! I am still boo-hooing it today!! Stupid! I once went out for dinner and ordered soft shelled crabs and lived to regret that one for weeks-I don't go out that often so when I make those kind of mistakes I don't let go easily!
Jacki was in on Thursday and brought us fabulous Pumpkin Orange muffins--delicious! I am adding these to my bake-a-thon...
Pups are good-I went to HomeGoods on Sunday to purchase a new bed for Miss Sammy (the boys had chewed the side off her favorite bed cover-those boys!!) So I found this adorable pale pink bolster bed-once I got it home Nemo decided that it should be his (all things are his-what a boy!) So after some time he gave it up and now Miss S loves it (picture to come tomorrow!)...they are loving the leaves in the yard-they love that swooshy noise they make when all three of them run to the end!
Well, off to finish ordering supplies for the shop--

With Thy Needle newbies

Good morning-We're in for some pretty days with sunshine! Thanks, Catherine for the reminder about the Strawberry Muffins and I would love to get the recipe for the Chocolate, chocolate chip and banana muffins...I'm a recipe whore!! I have a cabinet devoted to recipes, cookbooks and Cooks Country magazines...could be worse...could be drugs or guns or expensive handbags...

The above are new from With Thy Needle..all but the top are punch needle..all are adorable! And you know they are all going to go home with me!!

Well, I have just been attacked with a case of hiccups-so I'm off to drink from the wrong side of my coffee cup-ugh!

Hope you have a good day!!

This is soooo pretty! New from Country Cottage

Hi all-hope all is good with you! Can't believe the calendar is down to the last few pages-where has it gone?? I'm looking forward to my bake-fest the Wednesday before Thanksgiving-I usually do 5 or 6 pies and 5 or 6 batches of muffins-all between 5PM and midnight-I love it-and I'm always looking for new ideas--I have the two muffin recipes posted on Paulette Stewart's Four Seasons Cafe-sidebar-I have tried her Oreo Freeze and her recipe for Pumpkin Cake with Vanilla frosting-both huge hits...http://plumstreetsamplers.typepad.com/plum_street_samplers/four-seasons-cafe/ for these recipes!!
So if you have any great recipes--I know I was also looking last year and Catherine, I never tried the recipe you gave me-this may be the year!!
The above is from Country Cottage-not out yet but my favorite from them!!
Well, off to order fabric...have a great day!!

It's November-Yikes!!

HI all-To those that dared to come visit Beth, Lise and myself on Saturday we thank you!! To Mary W. thank you for the candy--we ate it for lunch (no time for the healthy stuff on Saturday--too busy!) and now there are three pieces left!! Oh my!! To Pat P. thank you for your commiseration about the Phillies and do come to stitching-we miss you!! To Podzi and Becky...it was good to see you! To Barbara S. we will get lots more in To Diane P. thank you for sending and bringing in Cole Hamel's pic--Good to see you too, Carla S. To the many others that came and kept us smiling we thank you so much! We had a fun day-and we live vicariously through you when we help you pick out projects!!

The above has me jumping for joy-you all know I love these designs and these are spectacular!!

Hope you had a good Halloween-we had 132 Trick or Treaters-lots from the two college campuses nearby-I love both the younger and older kids-all very polite-all eager for some fun. My favorite this year was a little girl and her sister-a peacock and a butterfly-so sweet! Brings back really good memories of my childhood...hope it does for you too!

More soon! M

Coming from Lizzie Kate

Due in next week are the following items plus the last two parts of the Christmas Rules series from Lizzie Kate...pre-order yours today especially the Winter Fob kit as these are limited and we only order so many...I hope all of you are safe and dry-the rain has really started to pick up here and we are hearing threats of tornadoes-yikes!!

Take care of you!! M :D

New designer and more

Howdy-The above are three designs from a new designer-Nikyscreations...very pretty! As I love deer so much I especially love the ornament at the top! These should be in early November...

Below are two coming from Glendon Place and two coming from Plum Street....

I visited my parents over the weekend and drove back Monday-it was good to spend Mom's birthday with her-a girl that is like a granddaughter to her organized a card party for her and she received over 100 cards-it was fun for her to get so much mail and see just how many people love her!!

It's raining here today-very peaceful-very warm-I know we will have many cold days ahead so we must enjoy the break, right??!

I hope you all are good-enjoy your day and don't forget to tell the people in your life how much they mean to you!

More later--Molly

Friday Oct 22

Hi all-well, I don't know about you but I am going to enjoy tonight's game so much more than the last two nights-I get so stressed watching our Phillies--and this weekend I'm heading up to see my mom(her b-day is tomorrow) so I won't be able to see the next two (wishful thinking??) games-maybe that's a good thing! Sometimes when I don't watch they do better-am I a jinx?? I definitely will be wearing my necessary attire...

Today's selection of new include Bent Creek, Blackbird Designs, Lila's Studios and Mosey n Me...there have been so many good projects out there-did I tell you I finished Jenny Bean's Halloween and it is hanging here at the shop (temporarily of course!!)...

Have a great weekend-enjoy the sunshine and your stitching!
