Cirque is Finished

I have finally finished Cirque de Cercles by Ink Circles. I worked on this for approx. 6 month. I used 28 ct. Navy Jobelean and Vikki Clayton's Amethyst silk. This was stitched 1 strand of premium over 2. I love this piece and can not wait for the companion piece to be released

We took the boys to Wilmington, NC on Friday to tour the battleship. We have been there several times before but always enjoy going. The last time was 2 years before. Brian is really into WWII things to he really likes this kind of thing. Here are a few pictures from the day.

Weight Loss Journey - Week 2

The 1st week didn't go as well as I would have liked. Only made it to the gym that very 1st day (too many things popped up last week).

This week I made it to the gym all 3 days (Mon, Wed, and Fri). That is my goal. If I make it more fine but 3 days is what I'm shooting for.

The eating has just been so so but figured one step at a time. I hope to get a walk or two in with dh this weekend but suppose to be wickidly hot and humid.

Wonderful Mail Day







I rec'd 2 pkgs of Vicki Clayton silks today and am in heaven. They are all just stunning and am going to spend the day fondling these beauties and deciding what I am going to stitch with them.
