Well here it is .I finsh up the frame piece and the first part of the pattern from Little House. From Sea to Shining Sea.

I actually finished on it today while the baby was takin his nap . I cannot wait for the next part to come out ,I did use only 1 strandof thread and it covers beautifully.

I was able to get a small start on my new pattern Quaker Christmas and as i get some done i will post.

Well it was Trents first Halloween . Well even thou we did not take him out trick or treating he did enjoy wearing his costume all day . He was the cutest puppy dog. I took so many pics .I am just tryin to make sure i remember everything with him .

After we piked up daddy from work we took him over to memays and pepays and he had his first chocolate bar and boy did he wear his food ,but yes he did enjoy it so much.

I am currently finishing up my newest SAL which is From Sea To Shining Sea ,by Little House . I just Love the Sampler Silk Threads this project came with .
