Lo How a Rose - Week 8

Finally, the flowers are blooming. I was really tempted to just keep stitching on LHaR until it's all finished. But Eden won't leave me alone! I do love the flowers.
Especially this one ...


Isn't it cute? Little flowers are everywhere! Hopefully, there won't be too many more weeks of updates on this little piece.

Since Spring Break is only a week away, I've already been mentally filling up the free days with stitching ideas, but there are so many other things to do. Many out-of-control and well-hidden corners of my little house are in desperate need of organization. Then there are the carpets that are screaming to be cleaned. We're also gonna have a four-legged guest for a few days (more on that later). And don't forget about skiing and golf! The best Spring Break includes both. Not nearly enough hours to get everything in, so we'll see which activities win out.

That's it for now ... back to Eden. TGIF and happy weekend to all of you! Make some fun.

I love your pictures of LO. They look so delicate. What a wonderful project.
When spring break here approaches I also make plans of all the things I want to do and there are always too many things, lol. Enjoy your spring break.

Lo is wonderful, Doris! I love the close up pic--it shows just how precise & dainty the stitches are. YGG! I don't know how I missed your ATS update, but it looks great! I hope you're not seeing green spots during the day. ;) Have a great weekend!

OK Doris - that's it! I'm starting Lo. I can't stand it anymore. I'm going to do this sampler. I've got the book, sure I have some fabric that'll do, just have to gather the fibers (which I also probably have)! The close-up pic put me over the edge!
Have a great Spring Break! Teachers deserve a SB more than anyone!

You are making fantastic progress on Lo! It's so beautiful and I'm sure you'll have it finished in no time :)

Oh, what a fantastic piece this is! I still can't get over the fact that you're doing it over-one, but it does look beautiful.
And your progress on ATS is stunning! I am SO tempted...

Your WIP on Lo is really making me crazy! It's coming out so beautifully. I really love it. I guess you could say that I'm being enabled here! LOL Hope you have a great Spring Break and can't want to see more pics of ATS.
