Hello again.......

Hi all.....a bit later than I expected but here I am. It's been super hot and the air conditioner has been my friend these last few days!!!! Especially since I decided to go off of my hormone patches......I've been thinking of it and it just seems time although in retrospect I could have picked a cooler month for this ......so far no "hot flashes" just feelings of extreme warmth so those I can handle and it's only been a couple. So I am keeping my fingers crossed......

And now onto the fun stuff! I recently took up knitting!!!!! I took a beginning knitting class and I love it . I finished my first scarf........... and I am in love with it...so please get cool quick!!!!! And next is the beginning of the shawl I am knitting .....the ruffle was intimidating but not hard and the shop owner adjusted the pattern for one color! It a heathery grey with lots of purple and a bit of green!!!!!! Next up is a sweater but first I must finish the shawl! I am further along and it's looking soooo sooo pretty!

I have had a finish in stitching too......Allow me to present Eiffel Tower Quaker © Jardin Prive done in one color on 40ct Light Exemplar with Antique Rose by Gentle Arts. It came out very antique and faded looking and I love it!!!!! I stitched my name and date in the foot of the tower legs!!!!!

 And next is Elizabeth © Carriage House not much done but aren't those eggs just darling!!!!! 

And on to other news !!!!!! I am blond again and have decided to keep my pixie haircut!!!!! I finally went to a new hairdresser and just adore her!!!!!! She does the pixie cut perfectly!!! It was hard to make the change but am so very glad I did!!!!!! It's a perfect cut for Vegas....no hairdryer need apply!!!!!!!

I'm off to make dinner and stitch some more!!!!! Thanks for reading this far! And as you may have noticed if you've read this far that I've done away with the "I'm grateful" just a personal decision as I try and be grateful in my everyday life and no longer feel the need to post my grateful thoughts. 

Oh just a P.S. I have fallen in love with Nora's newest design 

Tree of Hope. I am planning the fabric in my head with the help of my LNS shop owner so it'll be a new start soon !!!!!! I'm thinking of something with a subtle sparkle!!!!! Wasn't sure about it when it came out but now it's in my head and I love it!!!!!! And since for my birthday month I receive a discount on one piece of fabric this may as well be the one!!!!!!
I must ask a question that got asked of  me recently.....If you had a year to yourself where would you spend it? Remember this is about you!!!! I truly can't wait to see your answers!
