Cross Stitch and Some Fun

Thanks so much for looking at my blog.  I appreciate the nice comments that some of you left on my last post.  It was wonderful spending a week with our very sweet Grandson.  I have finished the border and all the pomegranates on "This is the Day"  but no photo for that. My only cross stitch picture is the framed April Word Play.  I am doing something I rarely do, work on two projects.  The May Word Play was waiting for me when I got home so I am also working on that  along with the sampler.  I find it very interesting that some of us stitch on many things at once and others are like me and tend to do one until it is finished.
This has been a very busy week in the garden.  My final photos show you what happened yesterday while we were outside.

 The finished April Word Play in its beautiful Valley House Primitives frame! I love the way I can just pop out one finish and add the next one.(The frame is even prettier than it shows in the photo)

 I wanted the daffodils in Word Play to look more like the following two so I used WDW Curry for the yellow petals.   I also used that color to stitch the word Peeps.  When I was in collage(many many years ago) my sweet Mom used to send me peeps.  They were always yellow. So when I see the word peeps, I think of those yellow marshmallow treats!

 My favorite gift store in Poulsbo had this adorable bunny for 50% off.  I had to add him to my white bunny collection! I'm going to put ivy in his basket and keep him out all Spring.

 Here is the funny part.  We have new neighbors.  Look what their dog did while we were working in the yard. 

Now there are two!

The SBA's solution.  We love dogs but I have no idea if these two would run if they got out.  They have two children under two and I know she would not like them out!! We would all be running up the street after them.

I hope all of you have a wonderful week end! thanks for joining me!
