It is a foggy, damp Monday morning here in my part of PA. A good time to catch up on some household chores before the boys come home. But first, a win, a Wigham and a wish!
I recently won a give-away from Scully. She is a fellow Pennsylvanian, from the other side of the state. We met via a comment that she left here on my blog. Her give-away included these two cute ornament patterns and this fantastic pair of scissors! She was kind enough to also send this great cookbook! I already have a few things picked out to try!
Thanks so much Scully!
She can be found at: http://cheerfullycrossing.blogspot.com If you get a chance, pop on over and say hello! Like me, she is pretty new to having her own blog and I am sure she would appreciate a visit!
Since finishing "Truly Thankful", I have not started anything new. I looked in my bag and decided to put a few more stitches in Mary Wigham from Needleprint Designs. Here is a look at what I have so far:
I chose my own colors for this, using about 11 different DMC colors. I think I am going to change the initials, dates, etc. on this to make it my own. I will leave all of those until last, then I will decide. Mary will be going back in the bag soon, as I have to start some holiday stitching!
So there you have my win and my Wigham. Now, you will have my wish. I wish for all of you to have a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday filled with family, love and laughter!
Thanks to all of you for stopping by and taking the time to leave me your wonderful comments!

I love your Mary Wigham. Love the colours you've chosen :)
Congrats on the win! Nice stuff! :) I love your Wigham. I was just looking at my NPI silks yesterday and couldn't figure out what one of them was for... then I remembered I have Sarah Moon started and in the UFO/WIP pile for a few years now. Or four. Gulp. I need to get back to doing some Quakers--they're so fun. I like that you're doing your own take on them. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
I love your Mary Wigham piece. I've just started a blog also (this morning). I am still trying to figure things out but having a bit of a time with it. Hopefully I'll eventually get things figured out ;)
