And the winner is...

Thank you all for entering the Fluffy Sheep Quilting giveaway last week!  We had an incredible response from all of you.  Many of you are quite funny with the names you've chosen for your pets!  Anyway, what you want to know is where the Comma charm pack and balls of DMC perle are going.

Today's lucky winner is number 1038, Miss Crystal.

Here's what she has to say:

Crystal, I hope you have a brilliant time making something with these!  Thanks so much for putting your name into the draw!

Sketching Birdies

As you already know, I enjoying the Birdie Stitches block of the month stitch along.  The templates are cute and I enjoy having something to embroider when watching movies or traveling. 

Now that I am more comfortable in my stitching, I want to add a bit more of my personality into this project. I have decided to draw my own templates for the June and August blocks to better reflect how I like to spend the summer.  This is a large jump for me as I am not an artist.  I like to color (yes, with crayons) what someone else has drawn, but that's the limit of my "talent". 

One of my favorite things to do in August or September is to go scuba diving or snorkeling.  So, here is my attempt at a snorkeling birdie.  I love him :)  The photo looks a little fuzzy and I don't know why.  If you click on it the fuzz will disappear.

I can not wait to see how the camping June birdie turns out!
