A season of firsts.....

My son, Colvin, started back to school today. His first day of 8th grade.

He attends the same high school that my husband and I graduated from. He's actually a third generation Montrose Meteor. Seems like just yesterday, he was going off to his first day of kindergarten....

(***sigh***) Where does the time go?

On the stitching front: my first trunk show is scheduled to arrive today at Crafty Ewe in Ohio. I courageously packed up and sent off 5 of my samplers: Eye on the Sparrow, Dandy Dreams, Halloween Bright, Promise of Spring, and 47 Hearts. It was almost more nerve-wracking than sending Colvin off to school on his very first day! My samplers will be staying with her long enough so that those attending the Shop Hop in October can view them up close and personal. I'll be releasing "Grime's Ghost" soon...perhaps before the next full moon. Stay tuned and please stop by again soon!

A Tiny Bit O' Grimes

Here's a sneak peek of Grime's Ghost, which will be my newest fall release.

and that's all I'm gonna show you! Mwa-ha-ha (evil laughter isn't as effective in print, is it?!)
Have a great day!

Toad-ally blown away.....

by all of the new followers of my blog! Thank you one and all for hopping on over here to see what's new or not so new. I'm in the home stretch of stitching a new design for the fall. It has a sort of "halloweeny" feel to it. I'm calling it Grimes Ghost, and that's all I'm telling you for now. I'll post a sneak peak as soon as I get it off the scroll rods. Until then, may all of your stitching be frog-free!
