Brrrr!

It is a cold and blustery day here in NC.  I spent most of yesterday clearing out my file cabinet and trying to organize all the paper a household accumulates over the course of a year.  I did manage to put the final stitches into this:

"Basking In The Sun"
Brittercup Designs
28 count evenweave/CC floss

 I loved this design from the moment I saw it because of the bleeding heart plant.  My mother had several bleeding hearts planted in our yard when I was a child and they just fascinated me.  As chilly as it is today it is nice to look at something so summery.  :o)

I also worked on a few more birds.  I made these a little smaller and have an idea for a somewhat different finish for them.  I have to make a trip to Hobby Lobby before I can try it out.  (I didn't make the one in the upper left - that is a glass ornament.  I have several of those teal colored birds that I have put on my little primitive tree for winter.)

I think perhaps a squirrel or a bird has found it's way into our attic.  As I am typing I can hear something rustling around.  Since I am having flashbacks of my raccoon encounter I think I will wait until DH wakes up to investigate.

I hope you are all enjoying a lazy Sunday!
