Well, this week has flown right by. I have been busy finishing up the stitching on this model. It is an Amy Bruecken Design from her Monthly Snow People series titled "Sam-August Sampler". It is stitched on 30ct WDW Carrot linen using GAST and WDW threads. The part I liked the most were the embellishments. They really finished off the design It also uses memory thread for the mouth. I hadn't worked with memory thread before but it really is a quick way to add demention to your needlework. Although this isn't my preferred style of stitching his smile is quite adorable.
I also managed to make it to stitching group this week. We have 2 new lovely ladies in our group. I really enjoy getting together with people who have the same interests. We are now meeting at a local library and it is quite enjoyable. There are comfy chairs and surprisingly enough there is great natural lighting.
We also go a new set of foster kitties. They brought 4 of them over on Wednesday afternoon, what we believed to be 4 females. Three are gray and white and one is black and white. Unfortunately, one of the furbabies wasn't doing well so I took it to the vet and they determined that it was actually a boy and his prognosis isn't good. If you could say a little prayer in your heart for this little guy I would be grateful. I am crossing my fingers that with the IV and antibiotics that he will turn around. I will try to post a pic of the furbabies tomorrow. Have a great evening and I hope you get to cross some x's.

Not my style of stitching either, but there is something about this one that just makes you smile ~ love the boots!
A snoman with cowboy boots? That is adorable. Hope the kitty does ok. Jannie
I'm keeping your "furbaby" in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us updated. Amy's design is too cute! Look forward to see how you finish it.

I totally thought those cowboy boots were weird free form birds! I guess it has been a long week. I'll keep a good thought for the kitten. I got the beautiful pins in the mail. I love them and the colors. Thanks so much Nataly!
What a funny and adorable finish. Well Done Nataly! I hope the baby's health jumps back. It's heart wrenching for any type of baby to be ill a little prayer goes out just for him. ;)
So cute,congrats on the finish. CJ in OK ;-)
Nataly, I received the pins you made for me. They are so cute. Thank you again for your generosity! I will post a pic on my blog when I get a little time. I've been working non stop.
A cute snowman. Keeping the little fur bundle in my thoughts.
I also love meeting up with stitchers but there aren't that many around here. But I have two stitching friends who I et together with every now and then, and we always have a blast together.
Great finish!
Lovely stitching! Have said a little prayer for the boy kitty. I think it's wonderful that you are a foster home for kitties : )
That't the first snowman I've seen in cowboy boots! Not my style either but a cutie nonetheless.
I will say a prayer for your little foster kitty. Hope things turn around for him.
Your stitching is always so beautiful, Nataly--no matter the style of the piece :)
Aw...I'm so sorry to hear about the boy kitten. I know you'll do whatever you can for him and his sisters...
Once again you are providing awesome foster care. I have prayed for him. http://astitchersstory.blogspot.com/

Surprise!!!!
So bright and colourfull! Love it! :)
I took a little class led by Amy last year. She was a lot of fun, and we used the Memory Thread a little bit, too, for an accent. You did a great job of stitching this.
I received the beautiful pins you sent. Thanks every so much. I will treasure them. I have posted an official thank you on my blog.
Have a great weekend.
