SAL #4 - Puppy Love Complete!

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to pop in and show that I have finally completed my version of the Puppy Love stitch-a-long. I had the stitching done a while ago, and managed to get the piece framed last week. It's now displayed proudly on top of our fireplace in the living room.

Thanks for looking! I can't wait to see what next year's SAL will be!

Hello From a New Member

Hello Margaret Sherry lovers.  My name is Julianne and I would like to introduce myself.  I contacted Nia to ask if I might join in the fun here.  I have been visiting  the blog for awhile and could see what a nice group of stitchers this is.

I live in Northern California about 40 minutes east of San Francisco.  I have been cross stitching for almost 30 years.  I have a blog but have not been real active with it recently http://juliannep.blogspot.com

I have not stitched any of Margaret Sherry's designs but I did purchase the book of her designs about a year ago and really want to stitch some.  I thought joining the group here would give me the push that I need to do it.

I look forward to joining in here with all of you.

Julianne

Halloween Exchange - from Judith to Amber

Those who regularly read our Margaret Sherry Lovers blog know that Judith has been going through a rough time lately, so I'm deeply thankful and touched that she found the time to send me this wonderful package for our Halloween Exchange.

(Judith, I've tried sending you thank you messages through email, but both times I've received a Delivery Failure Notice saying that there was a problem with the server. Hopefully, you're still checking in with our blog from time to time and you'll see my thanks here.)

My hubby and I moved last March and I'm still in the process of decorating our walls with artwork, cross stitches, and other crafting projects, so the autumny "Willkommen" sign Judith sent will make a welcome addition to our front entryway! Plus, this is the first Archie Bear I've received, and one that I've been trying to find time to stitch for myself, so I was delighted to see that he was the design that Judith had stitched for me.

Once again, thank you Judith! I look forward to using the crafting notions you've sent and decorating my home with the lovely ornaments. I send you big hugs from Canada to Germany!

Sincerely,

From Rita and SAL

I have completed SAL #4 ... well I was going to do all of it but one of the kiddies liked just the main dog and wanted him lol So I decided to just stitch the main part of the SAL rather than do the same picture over again!!  So here he is ...

This night my mum passed away. The best is that she mustn't suffer. Sleeping she passed.

Another cute dog:)

Hello girls!
While some of us are still waiting for our Halloween exchanges, i want to show you the little dog from SAL#4. As i'm running out of time to do everything that i want till the end of the year, i decided to stitch just the central dog from this SAL.
I still don't know what will be his final, but when i do, i will tell you.
I've enjoyed a lot to stitch this little guy;)

Good stitchings to all of you, girls;)

Halloween from Amber :)

So nice to see packages arriving to their destinations :)
Mine was received by Angel and I've also received Amber's gift to me!!

In fact, the package arrived last week, I've contacted Amber already but it took me a while to post here.. sorry ladies. Last week we had a sad news, a dear friend passed away, that was my reason for not posting right away.

Today, I've just posted my gift to Angele on my blog, you can see more photos here :)

And now it's my turn to say thank you Amber =) The first thing I did was to write an email but it's never too much to say thanks again ;)

A package full of fun halloween goodies and an adorable stitched pillow!! :D
Thank you Amber!!! It was fun to open your package and find each thing :) Also lovely to know how special this design is for you ♥ thank you for the sweet words =)
