Some dream of angels...

We held one in our arms. Kaleb was just a whisper, however his birth affected our lives forever. What would it be like to have a grandson play with two beautiful granddaughters? Would our daughter still be living close by? So many unanswered questions...yet after the past years, thoughts of "what if" still cross our minds. We are blessed and our lives are filled with happiness yet some days we share a tear for what could have been.

Hold your babies close today and say a prayer for those who can't.

"In heaven there's a special place for every girl and boy to live with God forever and share His love and joy."

Bowled over...

With the thought anyone would stitch a design over and over...let alone seven times! This is not my stitching and I normally don't share the stitching of others. Although, I did finish the witch seven times. No, I won't stitch a bowl of wee witches, but I would stitch more than one if I knew who the designer was. Do you stitch a design more than once?

Many...

Of you have been posting photos of your Christmas decorations, some even rethinking this year's decorating. Few changes take place here, which may seem boring, but I think of it as tradition. Every year when I begin to decorate fond memories come to mind as I place each ornament, Santa and treasure in it's usual place. Yet simple as it may be, I did rearrange the deer tray and... The Santas came down from the mantle... Allowing one of my favorite samplers to shine without the clutter. What changes did you make this year?

Counting. . .

And counting the days, or should I say the months since I have posted. I think of it often and do so enjoy seeing your posts. Where does the time go? Life is becoming a new normal here and all is well. I am, however, surprised that I even remember how to start a post. Finely Finished is now a full time job--not my favorite word. Finish work is a passion for me (not a job) and I'm fortunate to have clients' that allow me to spend time in the studio and "create" using their finely stitched pieces. And how fun to have someone say "do your magic"! Strawberries seem to be a favorite to stitch these days. With so many lovely designs, I can see why. Erica Michaels' Quaker Strawberry has passed through the studio in many color ways. Tell me. . .are you counting stitches or days? Thank you for stopping by, looking forward to hearing from you.
