Goodmorning Friday!

Well.,I am out of sorts now that I have broke my camera. I loved it and mourned it last night after I dropped it for the upteenth time and it definitely met it's demise this time. BUT, it lasted almost 2 years and Body Guard actually said that and laughed a bit.....not too much, as he knows I'm out this afternoon to get another one.

I love photography and especially as a stitcher, it's hard to show progress without a camera. Along with Miss Abigail this morning, who got a new dress.....yep, she said, she is also camera ready! ;)

But first I have to prepare a bedroom for the antiquie armoire I got a while back from my friend and Godmother, Dot. She is so happy where she moved but I miss her alot. I'm also excited that someone is coming over to move this thing from the basement level to the bedroom. I have a special spot for it and when it's all done, will take a pic (hopefully, with a new camera) of it in the bedroom. PERFECT for just a wee bit of storage I needed there.

If there has been one thing I've gotten done this week, that's take one room a day and clean closets. Yesterday was the bathroom and I would totally be embarrassed at what I cleaned out under the sink. More styling products that I should admit.  : P

Today, it's the shoe closet and another clothes closet. Its' HARD for me to part with shoes. But I'm going to watch an episode of Hoarders and then get busy!!!! 

I have stitched a little on Ann Hill the other night and will also take a pic when I get a camera but right now, just wanted to say

Goodmorning!  Enjoy your stitching and your passions while the weekend is on it's way!!!!



above sampler designed and stitched, finished by me last year for Miss Abbie's Summer

and yes, she is having a good morning with her routine treat first thing in the morning from her "treat tin" on her "snack mat" (a rug beneath my stitching stand) wearing her new dress that says "I'm really a BIG deal" on the back. She is so joyful.

Till later after Friday frenzie,
Jennifer

  2. hey Gabi,

    those are Premax scissors with a flowery handles I got on a trip to Boston last year. They are the sharpest little scissors and not too expensive at all. That other pillow I made from scraps of other stuff and it sits in my upstairs stitching chair.....

  4. Hi Jennifer. I hope you get your new camera today. I would be lost without mine. I'm still stitching on Becky and Max and will start At Home with Jane Austen next. I think you did that one. Show a pic with Abbie's new dress. I hope you enjoy your week-end.

  8. What is it about shoes that makes us want to horde them? I have shoes that I'm sentimental about, but it feels so good to clean and declutter. Have fun buying and playing with a new camera.

  9. I can't wait to see your pics, and I hope you get a new camera that you love just as much as the old one!!! Feel free to tell us all what kind you got, and how well you like it. I have a Sony Cybershot that I just love. It's a quick and easy point and shoot, with various modes. It even takes video!
