Hello Friends!
I have emerged from my embroidery hoop!  I was not able to join another
embroidery group at Amy's this time.  I was helping my daughter, Caitlin,
with some special order projects and really enjoyed the proccess.  I had to
tackle a problem and I met the challenge finding everyone very happy with
the end product!   It does feel wonderful!

My Lilacs were in bloom during this time leaving my home filled with their
wonderful scent!  Guiltily, I kept all bouquets for myself this time.... a cold
front and the embroidery projects left me no time  to drop off some of the
sweet aromatic florals for neighbors.


NOW I am focusing on a project I have been 
dreaming of for a loooong time!  
I am so very excited!!!


Can you believe this apparatus!?  It is a drill press that my hubby put together
and now I am using it on a portion of my project.  What is that?  YES I said ~
"...I am using it ...."  My Son, Doug, helped set it up and gave me invaluable pointers.
I have not used a drill press since... mmmm... 7th grade shop class.

The various designs for this project are swimming around furiously in my mind!
Really, this has been in my head for several years!!!
I have a couple of other things I am thrilled to work on also.

I do hope that this day finds you well.

Thank You for stopping by lovely Friends!

With Kindness and Love,

Mary
