After IHSW

I finished the 2nd sled piece I bought at PALs. These are from Foxwood Crossings. They go on the 7 inch sled. I really loved working on both of them. I just LOVE how when you finish the stitching you cut them out put them on the sled and they are done and ready to display. The ACME one had some special threads which I hardly ever use so that was extra fun.

After I finished these I stuck with the snowman theme and worked on another snowman piece I started the beginning of this year from a Stoney Creek Leaflet called Snow Drifters. Here is where I was on the Have A Ball one...
Here is what I got done this weekend...
The picture is better at least haha but you can't see the little snowflakes as well as the top one. The snowmen look so funny without their noses but they get these adorable little carrot buttons and I have to wait until it's finished. I have 5 snowflakes and some words and it will be finished. So I'm going to keep working on this one.

It was a fantastic lazy weekend. Fred had his HamFest to attend Saturday. He volunteered to work so he gets to go free instead of pay for parking and entrance. He had a really nice time and I got to watch a ton of TV shows off my DVR. Saturday we watched scary movies and I just LOVE those. One was about a clown and was called Stitches so that was a perfect match haha. Sunday we watched TV shows and got through so many. I kind of like waiting and watching a bunch in a row cause you don't have to wait to see what happens the next week. Well another week has started. Hope everyone had a great IHSW.

Congrats on the cute finish Katie. Your snowmen are adorable. I had to laugh. I was thinking they looked a little odd until you mentioned the noses.
