Birthday Chicks


Cheep! Cheep!
Good Monday Morning!
I did it..
I made a whole basket full.


 I stitched and stitched. While watching many movies. I had a wonderful weekend.
Does anyone watch the Downtown Abbey? Well my sweet friend Opal has me hooked.
Papa John, Jay and I also watched Plant of the Apes, The Swiss Family Robinson and 8 Seconds.
While it snowed on and off.
Fire, movies and snow!
And lots of love.



One day I stitched on all the beaks and eyes.
Another day I sewed them up with my new sewing machine.
I really needed one so it was my birthday present.
I use it alot.


Saturday I stuffed them with fluff and stitched up the bottoms.
Wolfie really wanted to snuggle in the basket with them.
My little sewing buddy.
He should have been in the garage keeping mice out of my boots
 but I think he wants to retire.
Hope your weekend was filled with Stitches.
Oh and Cake..Oh the Cake.

Woolie Love & Joyful Stitches!

She seeketh wool,and flax and worketh willingly with her hands.
Proverbs 31:13

  4. Adorable chickies! Sounds like you had a perfect weekend! John & I watch Downton Abbey but of course we don't "have TV" so we have only been able to see the first season on DVD. Looking forward to the second season when it becomes available : ) Blessings, Shirlee

  12. I'm thinking..if I DID learn to sew..it would keep my hands busy..so I wouldn't be eating all the time! Lol...ugh! I love your little chicks. So cute. I love 8 Seconds..omg..we just watched it at Christmas. I don't care how many times I watch that movie...I sob..and I mean sob!! I love his wave..just thinking of the end...when they are showing real shots of him...and he's waving...puts a lump in my throat! I watched Breaking Dawn twice and PS I Love You this weekend!

    And by the way...your Walking Her Home..pretty much makes me sob too!!! Love it Trace. You are so lucky to have the love you do!!! Katie
