I'm so happy to have someone do a (Debbie) SAL with me. You have made a great start on Good Morning. Sadly I haven't worked on my SAL pieces in a few weeks. And I'm almost done with Fall Welcome.<br />Your other projects look great. Congrats on the cute finish.<br />Love all your new stash and what a bargain. I am so darned excited. My little town is getting a JoAnn's. It will open on Oct. 3. Sure hope mine has lots of bargains.<br /><br />LindaLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12550501401308570248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5634613987157605022.post-9692922080781084592014-09-18T07:53:11.647-07:002014-09-18T07:53:11.647-07:00I think its lovely how you are honoring Debbie'...I think its lovely how you are honoring Debbie's memory!

I wonder if someone could finish it for her and get it posted up on her blog?<br /><br />Some wonderful things in your post Annette but so very sorry to hear about your Nannie - my thoughts and prayers. I always thought my nan would go on to be 100 but sadly cancer took her at 91. Wishing your Nan strength and courage to fight.<br /><br />Love k xKaren Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07299223060474694840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5634613987157605022.post-79916323458606437592014-09-16T21:41:51.649-07:002014-09-16T21:41:51.649-07:00You scored at Joanne's!

I too only knew her through blogging/commenting and she was a stellar lady who will be greatly missed in the bloggin community and I am praying for her family and friends. I didn't start a lot of projects, but I did start Bitter Flower Sampler in honor of her. I see you are making good progress on Good Morning! I have that one too from Evalina but am only stitching the rooster for a friend since she loves barnyard animals. Lovely new stash and wow, those are great bargains! Oooh I'm so sorry to hear about Nannie but I think she will get through this with her strength.

I didn't know her either, but it sounds like her death was very sudden and she wasn't very old. It must be so hard for her family and friends... I can tell how much you really miss her. And I'm so sad to read that your Nannie is sick, too... It's been a very difficult month for you and I want you to know I'm thinking of you!<br /><br />Beautiful stitching--that little tag finish is adorable. I need to try that myself. And that new ornament issue has just been added to my shopping cart--looks like some darling designs this year!<br /><br />Take care now, Annette...Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10368237913096460512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5634613987157605022.post-2647593215369499842014-09-15T11:22:39.738-07:002014-09-15T11:22:39.738-07:00I didn't know Debbie, either, but I have read ...I didn't know Debbie, either, but I have read wonderful tributes to her. She must have been a very special friend.<br />I love your Uncle Sam and would love to be able to stitch him myself. Your finish is so cute!<br />All of your stitching is lovely, as well as your autumn decorating!<br />I hope your special Nannie is feeling better and perking up soon. So sorry to hear that she is sick. Years ago I had an older relative that we called Nannie, and we loved her dearly.

Nice winnings you've received. I just may have to check out my local Joanne's too to see if the same sale is over here, great prices on the stand and scrolls.

And I will also join the crazy January challenge and start 31 projects and will be thinking of Debbie when stitching them. You chose a great piece for the Saturday SAL with Linda. Debbie also had so many Imaginating pieces in her stash.<br /><br />Your Uncle Sam came out great. I love this way of finishing and will try it myself one day. Vonna's tutorials are such a great source.<br /><br />I think I would have brought lots of stash home with me if I had seen such a great sale. Enjoy your new accessories and threads.<br />Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922122091202289138noreply@blogger.com
