I finished Cat Lessons in Virginia. I love how it came out and my friend is going to like it alot. I am going have to get more of this material. Luckly, it is easy to buy and I got get it at my JoAnne's. I am going to finish it into a flathold. The cat material in the background is what I will be using for the finish.

I made this butterfly for my friend in Virginia. I stitched it there and did it in 2 days. I used her favorite colors and I just found the perfect fabric to use to finish it off, and the beads too.

The photo above is a bingo prize, from LeAnn, I won in my KraftersKorner group. I am now hosting the current game and had made it to a tribute to Elizabeth Taylor. LeAnn was, also, my partner for the Spring Fling exchange. The next pictures is the lovely gifts I got from here. She spoiled me with these lovely gifts. Hopefully she will like the gifts I had send her.


Here is my TUSAL jar for April. I am a little late showing it. I have been working on an exchange. I found a last minute pattern to stitch. When I saw it, I had to do it for my partner. I will give the details when she receives and open it. I got her package the other day but I am not opening it until my birthday. It is a Easter package and my birthday is 3 days before Easter and I am not going be home for Easter. I am going to Virginia again and won't be home sometime in May. I just loved Virginia and can't wait to get back down there. I will be taking the Amtrak train this time and its a direct route, so no transfers and cheaper than the Greyhound.
My dad is retiring on May 4. I am stitching something for him. I am debating whether to give it to him before I leave or when I return. I will make the decision before I leave.

Until next time,
Vicky
