i'm getting there...i've almost completed herbert from heart in hand. this little guy was included in my birthday gift from my oregon peep. i thought i would send it back to her framed. isn't he super cute!?
anyho, tomorrow, i'm spending the day with the sewing girls. we are going shop hopping to some area quilt shops. i'm looking forward to hanging out with them while browsing for fabric; it will be a great day!
this weekend...
this weekend hubby and i traveled to hackensack, mn to visit his nephew, who is on two week leave from the navy. awesome to see him!
but as we traveled north, we did a little shopping. hubby got two pairs of jeans and two pairs of winter boots...not really that fun for him. i, on the other hand, got something really fun. look what i got. i've knitted a pair of socks before but not with two circular needles...so it might be a challenge for me. oh well, i can't wait to start...

loving nature walks...
good morning, yesterday the weather was b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l! it was 40 degrees...or something around that...close enough to say...it was a great day! it was sooo nice; i took the dogs for a walk. so i thought it was very fitting to create a card with SU! nature walk stamp set from 2011 mini occasions catalog.

i've been busy working my j-o-b; but this past weekend, i have some great views. check it out: yep, you guessed it...i was at a quilting retreat friday, saturday and sunday. i wish i could say i got a lot done, but i can't. i do have a reason for my lack of productivity, i worked the retreat which my friend coordinated...oh and i talked and giggled too much. i had sooooo much fun...

yesterday's progress...
here's yesterday's progress on the needle roll; i stayed home from the Tuesday's sewing day with the girls...i made bread and cleaned...i would have preferred the get together with the girls but you know what happens when duty calls...
also, take a look at the weather...honestly...how do we, Minnesotans, handle this kind of stuff? guess, I should be thankful for ONLY the falling temps and not 2' of snow... :-) have fun you, easterners... :-)
