Wishes for the New Year...

 Wasn't it just yesterday that we were ringing in 2012?

They say time flies when you're having fun.  That may be true, however, time flies no matter how you're spending your days...good or bad.

The last two years have been somewhat a blur.  No complaints, just reality.  In this household we have learned to make the most of each day.  When the days are good we enjoy them and when they are bad, we get through them.  Hopefully, learning as we go.

Once again, there will be no resolutions.  How about wishes?  Such as...stitching more, reading more, walking more and more time with loved ones.  Simple enough but don't the little wishes bring contentment?  And one large wish...to educate the public on how to connect with someone suffering from dementia.

So much more to be said...perhaps, better left for another day.  For now I will leave you with "wishes" for a Happy New Year!


What are your wishes for 2015?

Joy, how nice to see your post
on this last day of 2014!
I hope your list of wishes comes true.
I'm wishing for the ability to appreciate
each new day. Sometimes I get too hung
up on regrets and worries.
I wish to practice gratitude every day.
Life is speeding by, and I need to cherish
this next year, even though
challenges are ahead.
Please know that I think of you
and your situation. Take time for yourself
when you can. Looking forward
to your bits of joy. Hugs, Sandy

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.
