And another talented stitching friend!

This beautiful stitching box with accessories was a gift from one of the sweetest women I know. Sue is one of my Kansas girls and she has a wonderful talent for looking at a design and conceptualizing its finish in a unique way.  Lucky, lucky me that I've been the recipient of some of her ideas!

Love the flowers!  A perfect choice for flowers blooming in early spring.

The goodies inside.

A close-up to show you her perfect stitches, cording and the added touch of counting pins.

I've already thanked her personally, but now I'll do it publicly. Thank you so much, Sue!

As for my own stitching, I'm working on La D Da's ABCD, and it's almost finished.  I should have a picture soon.

In other things, I've been watching way too much TV lately.  Dave and I became hooked on AMC's show, The Killing.  I think we've almost caught up to where the series is now.  Do any of you like that show, too?  It's dark, but it really draws me in.  And it's made me think that I'd never want to live in Seattle.  Does it really rain like that every single day?  Yikes.  I thought western Pennsylvania was dreary, but the show makes Seattle seem like a vacation spot for vampires because there is no fear of ever seeing the sun. 

Now I'm off to start my day....
