My vacation has ended and I need to return to work today. I can't complain, I feel refreshed and rested! It was really nice to have a week at home; I accomplished many things around the house, enjoyed getting together with friends, and finished up some stitching projects. It was a good week!
Couple more finishes to share:
I finished thio Lizzie Kate design into a pillow; the stitching was done several months ago.
And, the finish that really makes me HAPPY - the box top for my BBD class project from the Stitchville / Blackbird Designs retreat in April. I'm including a picture to show you the inside of the box (although the inside was completed at the retreat.) I stitched the top piece on Saturday evening/Sunday morning and mounted it on the box Sunday night.
One last hot day in Minnesota and then things are going to cool down. Yippee! Hope you have a great day!

Both of your finishes a beautiful but I especially love the BBD Designs finish. I love the inside especially. What a beautiful keepsake.
Your BBD box turned out really nice! Now you're ready to take another class. Your dog pillow is real cute, too! Guess I need to make one of those, too now that I have a dog.

I love the finished box. It is really nice. I need to stitch the dog piece to remember my Clark (as if I could forget).
Wow!!!!! Cathy, I just read your blog from July up to Aug 23rd post and I am AMAZED at your stitching and finishing. I have been away from the blogging world so much this summer and am trying to get caught up. I just LOVE all of your BBD designs. You have done a wonderful job on all of them. Our DD went off to college this year also. I too have the "empty" house but am looking forward to some "me" time to stitch.
Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful projects and your stitching retreats/photos. I have thoroughly enjoyed it!!!
