It's snowing again and I am just loving it. Everything is so beautiful & peaceful. However the down side to all this snow, is the power keeps going out. Now I know it can be cozy to sit by the fire, cook dinner on the camp stove, have great conversations, & even play some board games by candle light. However by the second day it gets old, because I would love to take a hot shower, & do some sewing at my sewing machine.

So let me wish all a happy weekend, & post this before I loose power again.
Hugs,
Rebecca

Today is January 15th & 22 years ago Gregg and I were married. It has been a wonderful journey, and each day is better than the last.
Happy anniversary my darling. Your are the man of my dreams, & the best thing I have done is to marry you.




Doesn't he look handsome? My dress is blue velvet that was made for me by my sister-in-law Lynn. We were married on a cold afternoon & snow was expected, so the velvet kept me warm. I didn't want to ware a coat & cover up my pretty dress, so, is I had pink long johns on under my dress for more warmth. Of course I didn't really feel the cold because I was so excited.

Here we are today. a little grayer, but still so in love.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit.
Hugs,
Rebecca

Thought I would share with you my first finished stitchery project. I made this pillow for my Friend's birthday. I don't think she reads my blog, so it should be safe to share. I found the light house pattern on line. It has several different lighthouse. One day I would like to make a quilt of stitched lighthouses. The verse is from Charles Lindberg's tombstone. I took a photo when Gregg & I were in Maui because I thought the verse was so lovely. Then enlarged it so I could stitch it. I think it turned out well.






Now that I finished this birthday present, I will continue to finish the "
Over the River" stitchery that I showed you a few posts back. I'm on the last panel, which I don't think will take too long. All the trees take the longest time.

I'm off to pack up my sewing room today. Why would I do that you ask. Well, my Christmas present was a new Koala sewing station!!!! I am just so excited. It is being delivered Monday so I must pack up all of my things. Yes, I will post pictures of my beautiful table once I get everything organized.
Hugs,
Rebecca
