Pear Ornament by Little House due in Wednesday

Happy Monday all! I hope you are not as frazzled as I am-trying to tie up loose ends....just found out that one gift is out of stock and so had to reorder and pay an exorbitant shipping fee...made a vegan chocolate cake last night-turned out great but unwrapping 48 candy canes and getting them down to a fine granule was very noisy ( just ask Mr. Miley-he vacated the kitchen until it was time to taste test the frosting..sorry buddy, no chocolate cake for you!!)...got my tree up and was thrilled that Miley actually loved it!! He was jumping around, racing to and fro...until the ornaments went on...then he looked sullen-not sure why!!
We had about 18 inches of snow on Saturday-dogs LOVED it! I had to make paths for them-Sammy stuck her head down under like a duck in water-she was looking for chipmunks!! Miley was "Tigger-hopping"-licking the snow!
Hope you all had a good weekend-won't it be nice when January comes and we can sit back and stitch??!! The above ornament should be here Wednesday--
Til tomorrow--Molly

Friday at TSS

Above are Friday's newbies from Hoffman that I haven't already posted--we already have the little tree by Heart in Hand in stock....the others will be here within the next two weeks. Also available from Hoffman will be Sabrina by Mirabilia and the two newest silk gauze designs from Erica Michaels...

Have a super weekend-hope you get lots of stitching done tomorrow-if you have to be out be safe!! Molly

Getting ready for the storm!

Afternoon, stitchers! Just talked to Eileen who said the grocery store is a free-for-all! Of course, I want to do a trial run of the vegan cake I'm making for next Saturday-I'm going to do a Candy Cane Icing (from Cook's Holiday Baking)-bringing it in to work on Monday (weather permitting!).So I think I'll wait til 9PM to go to Genuardi's...
Little House is releasing the Pear ornament soon and the above in January-note his body is a snowflake!! Love him!!
We are on a sugar-high here today-our favorite present came today-Kringle from Racine, WI. It is fabulous! Don't read the nutritional label-we have each eaten like 24 kabillion servings...www.ohdanishbakery.com Their kringle is THE BEST! Flaky, buttery, yummalicious!
Hope all is good with you all-I am trying to finish a few little stitcheries for Christmas.
Will hopefully post more new-stay safe tomorrow... Molly

Friday's stitching is cancelled

Good morning, all! I hope you're not too crazy with all of your holiday preparations. I have been nutty trying to get everything accomplished!!

We are sooo sad to say that we are cancelling Friday's stitching-we have has sooo many people that can't make it due to other obligations, activities, shopping, etc We hope we haven't disappointed too many of you-we will be having stitching again Friday, January 15th. 2010!! We will be putting notice on our website and will email the previous attendees. Please pass the word. We hope to see you before the holidays-if we don't please have a safe, joyous Christmas!! I'll be posting more info as the week progresses.

Take care-Molly

Sabrina

Howdy stitchers! I hope your weekend was good-I traveled up to visit a Shaker Village in New Hampshire-my sister is in charge of the volunteers there-it is The Canterbury Village and the first two Saturdays of December they have special Christmas events, they light the village with luminaries, and have actors portraying people from long ago-there are horse drawn rides, hot cider and demonstrations for adults and children. They also have events throughout the year...www.shakers.org is their website if you're interested...
The above is a new, gorgeous design from Mirabilia called Sabrina-reminds me of the movie-love both versions too!
Hope all is good with you all!! Molly

A Note to Reed and Jennifer

Dear Reed and Jennifer( at Ladybug Lane)-

Yesterday I went to the doggie hair-do place. My hair is all fluffy and soft and they sent me home with a snowman scarf...Molly took it off when my pal Sammy-G tried to tug on it. I have lots of great toys to play with but my favorite toys are socks, on or off feet. I also love to chew zipper pulls, pant strings, DMC floss, and oriental rug fringe. I loved the snow we had last week but it sticks to my legs-Molly had to use a hair dryer to melt it away. This will be my first Christmas so Molly will have to hang the ornaments high!

I send both of you my love and thank you for the hugs and kisses you send to me! Love in bunches--Mr. Miley Coyote

Friday's update

Happy Friday to you all! What a day it was for me yesterday--I went from one mall to another-I used to love to shop....no so much anymore! I would rather be at home stitching in my chair with my pups ...

Above are new designs from The Stitcherhood, PrimitveBetty, Milady's Needle and Val's Stuff.

Have a good weekend and don't get too exhausted shopping-enjoy some time with family and friends and a big dose of tome for yourself!! Molly
