Counting My Blessings

A while ago I came across a "stitchalong" hosted by Amy at Inspire co. She was working on an embroidery sampler she called 39 Squares to celebrate her 39th birthday. I just had to make one also, so I rushed out and bought the supplies and started outlining my one inch squares. Amy is now working on a sampler called Counting My Blessings , over here, that is composed of 100 squares! I'm not sure if I'll get that many squares, but I know I have that many blessings (and more) in my life. I love the look of these squares just waiting to be filled in!

Back Up

While I was down for the count I worked on a needlepoint pillow. These kits are my go-to craft when I cannot concentrate on anything else but must have something to do with my hands.

Outside these beauties showed up (dropped in), appropriately enough, after the snow finally melted. (Excuse the pun---these are called Snowdrops!)

And when I was all better I worked on my background pages for the Artistic Mother Art Group I'm participating in. Love playing in the paint. I highly recommend it.
