December is here and already speeding along! Hubby and I decorated our house on Sunday, and everything looks very festive and cheery. I love decorating for Christmas. It makes me wish I had done more Xmas stitching!Still no PL fabric in the mail for me....although I have been diligently checking every day! That is when I can get my mail box open. Winter seems to think its time to arrive and we have been hit with ice storms and snow....brrrr! It seems awfully early to look outside and see so much white, and have to bundle up with boots, scarf, gloves and hat to go out! Of course Nick is loving it as that means money to be made shovelling snow from driveways for him and of course snowboarding season has opened.
Not much stitching to show from me except a Prairie Schooler piece I have been working on a piece of Fiddler's cloth. Its from Christmas Samplers Book 63 and I'm hoping to be able to stitch it before Christmas. Stitching is slow these days as my shoulder has been troubling me a lot. I finally gave in and and saw my doctor and have started seeing a physiotherapist for a 'frozen shoulder'. I'm sure its from work, nah, couldn't be from stitching or quilting at all! But unfortunately I can't stop working .... :-(
Lovely wip, Wendy! I'm sorry about that frozen shoulder. I'm the same as you: pain strikes but it definitely cannot be due to stitching or quilting (ooooh, gorgeous quilt!!!).
ReplyDeleteTake care,
Lili
Wendy, I hope your shoulder feels better soon!
ReplyDeleteLove the cookie jars!
I do hope your PL fabric arrives soon - we need all the PL stitchers we can get, and also I was really loving your colour combination so I'm keen to see more. Fingers crossed your postie arrives soon (I remember regularly and roundly cursing Canada Post in my youth, I see it hasn't gotten any better ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited about Christmas - can't believe it's already December!?! I've done plenty of Christmas stitching this year, although not much for myself LOL!
Hope your shoulder improves very soon.
I was just thinking today how much I dislike putting on boots every time I have to go out! I'm starting to decorate a bit at a time. I have all my snowmen out now.
ReplyDeleteHope your shoulder is pain free soon. You definitely don't want it to cut in on your stitching time!
Your PS wip is looking great!
ReplyDeleteHope your shoulder gets better soon.
Your PS piece is very pretty! Hope you find more stitching time soon.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah isn't this weather total crap!!! Its going to be a long winter!
Oh, a frozen shoulder...that sounds terrible! Nope, I think it'd be from work too...nasty work... LOL!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE, LOVE, LOVE (!) the PS your working on!
Wendy, I hope your shoulder is better. what a bummer! Take good care of it.
ReplyDeleteYour Prairie Schooler piece is lovely! :)
I hope the physical therapy helps your shoulder, I wouldn't want your stitching to suffer. Hopefully the PL fabric shows up soon.
ReplyDeleteYour PS is looking great! I love that pattern :)
ReplyDeleteMy sympathies about your shoulder .. I have a bad left shoulder (impingment) and have physical therapy and massage therapy done for it .. not fun at all .. but it does help! Good luck :)
Oh no! Hope your shoulder gets better soon, it definately sounds work-related, LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteIt always seems like the mail takes longer when I'm waiting for something to arrive! Hope your fabric gets there soon, but LOVE that PS wip!!!
Hope your shoulder heals quickly, Wendy!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that PS design. I will keep my fingers crossed that you will be able to stitch it before Christmas! This year, right?
Hope your should will be better soon. Your PS piece is looking good.
ReplyDeleteI like your wip, its looking good. And I love your snowman decor too, lol. :) I hope your shoulder feels better. I know mine hurts from working on my BAp too long on that big hoop stand.
ReplyDeleteI love this PS piece you're working on. Havent seen this one before.
ReplyDeleteIm hoping to decorate this weekend and always wish i had stitched more christmasy things too.
Hope your shoulder feels better soon :)
I hope that shoulder clears up soon so you can stitch your heart out. That PS is lovely and it would be nice for Christmas (this year?)
ReplyDeleteCute little Snowman and Santa glad you are enjoying the upcoming holidays. The PWS Sampler looks good, sorry about the shoulder. Mine was helped by getting a neck support pillow, go figure. Happy Stitching and Holidays
ReplyDeleteYour PS piece looks great. Sorry to hear about your shoulder, hopefully it feels better soon.

Take care of that shoulder...A break from work yes from stitching no....I'm sure it's theraputic.
ReplyDeleteYou will have to work on PL for days to catch up. I'm jealous I love stitching on it and 6 days in a row would be fun.!
PS is a great piece that you are doing! Very pretty.
Take care of that shoulder. Yes, December is here ... and your PS WIP is awesome. Hope you get it all stitched up in time : )
ReplyDeleteDear Wendy, I'm very concerned about your frozen shoulder! We need to talk! Please don't over-do this holiday season, it's not worth it. I'm sure your stitching had nothing to do with it, but carrying or lifting heavy things might! Sending many prayers and wishes for healing your way, Deb
ReplyDeleteTake care of that shoulder!Lovely WIP!!
