Just a Little Update

I first want to say Happy 4th of July weekend to everyone in the USA, I hope everyone stays safe and enjoys the holiday. Since I was here last I've had a birthday which was great, my husband and I met up with his sister and her husband and my mother-in-law out in Las Vegas or as my nephew says Lost Vegas because that is what I did. I lost all of my gambling money, I could have just sent them a check but I had a terrific time. My vertigo was kicking in so I had that drunk feeling without the actual drinking, which saved me from the hangovers.  Once I returned I published my second Youtube video, showing the stitched and finished pieces on my craftroom walls. This thing took me about three days to record, edit and voice over the pictures but I think it came out pretty good.  Also while going and coming back from Vegas I got a little stitching in, I even have a finish to show.


This is called of course 4th of JULY from Little House Needleworks and stitched on a 28 ct linen (Peared Barley) and I just noticed that I left off the little liberty bell, it should be right under the th in 4th.  Up next is my little progress I made on the Hogwarts Crest
There is now a whole lion. I also got a chance to do two more of my diamonds on Conniegee's SAL
Lastly I put in a few more xxs on my cross eyed cat from Not Forgotten Farms.
That's about it for now got to go make some more of those wonderful little xxs, and don't forget to go check out my new video and become a subscriber.

Oh I love your stitchy things. That little fourth of July one is very cute! I have vertigo also and keep meclazine with me at all times. I have had it so bad I had to crawl across the floor to get to the bathroom! Not fun. Oh and happy birthday dear! Is it 21 or 22?

Lovely work, as usual! I will have to check out your videos. I hope your vertigo is better -- my husband had a few days of that a couple of weeks ago -- not pleasant.

The diamonds are very impressive.
Happy 4th!
