It finally Snowed

In Raleigh! I like the snow but my sinus' sure don't. I'm a palm tree girl so getting snow once a season is enough for me :) One good thing is I got to take a snow day yesterday and got lots of stitching done. These pics were taken when the snow was coming in the morning. It was very pretty. Now we just got to deal with the melting that will freeze tonight.


I received this beautiful scissor fob all the way from Monika in Poland today. This is an exchange from the Tiny Treasures Exchange that I'm a member of. Her stitching is beautiful and love the extra crocheted detail for the tail of the fob.
The rest of these pics of of the finishes I did this weekend. My first mitten finish! I think it turned out pretty good for the first try. The other is the finished Blackbird stocking from the 2008 JCS Ornament issue.

Yup the snow sure is pretty but I could happily never see it again. I've told my financial advisor that he'd better make me a snowbird! LOL.

Your finishes are beautiful!

Snow. Ugh. We got too much of that this year. Love your finishes, though!
