Ponderings of a Crafty Mind

Day of Love

I think I love this day because

A)  I love Chocolate

B) I love Red

C) I get gifts...silly gifts...from the kids...perfect

This is a cool thing

Ok, if you love stitching and also helping someone, then go here http://spiritcloth.typepad.com/spirit_cloth/the-magic-feather-project.html

and do something nice for someone else.

 

 

Memory

 

You are loved and missed.

 

should i stop

My, oh my.  I have been neglecting this blog so much.  Maybe I should stop.  I admire people that post every day.  There are even people like Jenny Doh, that post several times a day. 

I really think it is because I still don't know my way around. Not as easy to do things as I thought. 

But I did want to mention there are so many online classes out there that are wonderfully done.

I am taking this one right now and Sally Jean has a new one coming out this fall.  I have taken two of her and love them.

Take a class.  It is easy and a great way to learn more right from home.

Well there.  A post.
