variegated threads...

born in Brooklyn NY 92 years ago

doesn't own a microwave

brews coffee in the old-fashioned drip pot

plays solitaire with real cards

still cuts her own grass on the riding mower

and loves to knit

filling an embroidered tote with variegated yarns 

just because

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!

monogram construction...

monogram under construction

no hard hat required

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!

a croc of a story...

the narrative could be how this croc sprang up 

and ripped a three-corner-tear in my pink shirt

but in reality, 

it was torn by some unknown 

object while zipping through an airport

pink + pirate + Chakra crowns + a monogram 

equals no more tear

arrrrgh

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!

fish story...

gone fishing

a Yellow Marabou Streamer fishing fly has snagged B

fish stories to follow.....

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!

red, white & blues...

SC, SC, SC.....

Hmmmm

patriotic picnics & Ho Ho Ho!

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!

canine companions...

For the first time in 18 years I do not have a happy-go-lucky lab, or labs, dogging my every step, or begging me to throw that slobbery tennis ball one more time.

Blizzard was pre-blog. 

But Avalanche, aka The Hound, has frequently 

popped into this blog’s photos purposely, 

or just photo-bombing the camera shot. 

She was our loyal companion for 14 happy years.

missing Sundermann’s best friend

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!

balance...

it’s all about balancing

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!

colorful classic...

who says classic monograms can’t be colorful?

is pink + orange a classic?

it's just embroidery, have fun with it!
