I have seen a lot of your finishes on the Kelly and Joan show. I am always happy to see you two pop up on my You Tube feed. I am loving my project bag I ordered last month. Knee High by the 4th of July is residing there right now. I also finished Dorothy's discovery so I am off to my LNS to kit up Baby Its Cold Outside. I am moving on to fall and winter stitching. I love the strawberries you have shown. I ordered the Prairie Schooler Christmas berries and it should be in at my LNS today as well.

Mary said...

I plan, want, hope to do a drum and strawberry this year. I love the initial patch on the back of your drum. You have such beautiful finishes. There is always that problem of looking at others blog...the next step is off to find and order that pattern. I do not ( unfortunately) have a LNS . You bloggers are such enablers, hahaha.

I'm 55-year-old from Korean, I was diagnosed with second-stage liver cancer following a scheduled examination to monitor liver cirrhosis. I had lost a lot of weight. A CT scan revealed three tumors; one in the center of my liver in damaged tissue and two in healthy portions of my liver. No chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment was prescribed due to my age, the number of liver tumors. One month following my diagnosis I began taking 12 (350 point) Salvestrol supplements per day, commensurate with my body weight. This comprised six Salvestrol Shield (350 point) capsules and six Salvestrol Gold (350 point) capsules, spread through the day by taking two of each capsule after each main meal. This level of Salvestrol supplementation (4,000 points per day) was maintained for four months.
