Bloodhound Puppies!

Well, here he is, king of my darling daughter's little world:  Duke.  As you can see, we have very strict rules about a dog's place in the world and have him well trained to stay off the furniture, etc.  HA!

Little does Duke know as he lays here, that he is about to become a big brother!


WHAT????

Yes, that's right, Dukie, soon you will not be the only one living in Katie's heart!  Today I sent her off with my debit card to pick out her Christmas present.

 Before she got to meet Duke's potential sibling though, she got to meet the Baby Momma!  She's got a sweet disposition and is very friendly.

She is stockier than Duke even though her owners say she has lost a lot of weight throughout her pregnancy.

Hmmm... seems to be tougher all around what with this outdoorsy attitude!  Duke runs outside for a quick pee in the winter and then wants right back in.  He's been telling us bloodhounds don't like the cold.

They do have one thing in common - they are both hams for the camera.  Is this a pose or what?


Nope - she's not dead - likely just dead tired because of all the trials and tribulations of motherhood!

Or maybe she's having a hot flash?  I know I feel like going outside and doing this fairly often!  Anyway, I bet you are ready to see puppies now, right?












Awwww......  And really, how much trouble could one more dog be?  Look at this picture - it's not like puppies chew or anything, right? 

Okay, so one more thing off my Christmas list!  I am so excited for when he gets to come home!

Well, Kerry, it's a good thing you didn't send me out with your debit card - I wouldn't be able to pick just one (Grin). Good to see that Duke knows his proper place - sharing a bed with one bloodhound can't be any worse than shariing with 2 rottis.

Giveaway Day! (CLOSED)

I am very happy to be joining in the Giveaway Day through Sew, Momma, Sew .  I have chosen to share one of my finds from a shopping trip, or treasure hunts as I think of them.  This is an antique sewing box -  I could not resist it when I saw it for sale!  Were you able to guess the item from the sneak peek earlier in the week? The box itself is fairly small, 8 inchs X 6 inchs and 4 inches high (20 cm X 15 cm and 10 cm high).  From my research it is of Asian origin. Inside the sewing box is lined with hand-painted silk.  The inside of the lid features a neat little needlebook. In the bottom of the sewing box there are more beautiful hand-painted blossoms and an attached pincushion.  I hope you are as charmed by this little box as I was when I found it and that you will enter my giveaway.  I will be pleased to mail internationally so everyone is invited to enter. To enter, visit my Etsy shop and then come back and leave me a comment telling me which item you like best.  Feel fr

BAS - Week 79 - Feather Stitch Variations

I have about the next twenty BAS stitches scheduled and by happy coincidence this week's BAS is a series of Feather Stitch variations which coincide with this week's TAST stitch if you are following.  So, we can hit two birds with one stone!  These hardly look like feather stitch but they are.  They are created by making the "v"'s of the feather stitch vertical on the inside.  Very simple to do but a different look to an old stitch.  The second variation is created by doing two feather stitches at a time on each side, again making sure the inside of your "v"s are vertical and line up as much as possible. Same thing again in this one except they are in series of three.  To me these have the look of stitching on old crazy quilts so they are nice to add to your stable of stitch variations.  Hope you  enjoy them and have fun!

The winner of last week's Friday Giveaway of the current issue of Spin Off magazine is Marilyn!  lol - an easy win for Marilyn since she was the only one who left a comment.  Marilyn didn't leave an email so I would ask her please to contact me - just leave a comment with your email and I will email you right back to get your mailing information. (I will not publish the comment with your email)  If I don't hear back from you by next Friday I will include the magazine in with the prize for next week.  Last week I asked for comments suggesting what would make a good giveaway item in the future.  Since Marilyn's suggestion was the only one, I will take it!  So, this week I will be giving away some specialty threads as Marilyn suggested, along with a package of these great clock charms I just received in the mail. Aren't these great charms?  When I found them I bought all that there were in stock, five packages, so I have enough to share with you as well as a package fo
