Look at these beautiful bookmarkers that my good blogging buddy Debra sent me. She made them on her embroidery machine. I have lost the card she sent with them and can't remember the details, but I remember that it took several hours stitching for each one. I just love them. They're so pretty and intricate. Thanks so much Debra.
Below are four more ATCs I made for the SwapBot swap.
Now my only deadline I haven't yet met this month is my Charming Girls Challenge quilt top, the Charisma Bundt Cake Quilt. I only have a couple of short diagonal rows to go, so I think I'll make it. Probably not tomorrow since Vann has chemo. And maybe not Tuesday, as I have an appointment with the ENT. Vann and Andy think I'm going deaf, so I have to go see what the matter is. Have any of you noticed a problem with me being able to hear you? I DIDN'T THINK SO!
Vann took me and Phillip to IHOP for brunch today. I swear, we consumed enough cholesterol to light Las Vegas for a month. But it was good.
I hope everyone has had a fine weekend. We're hoping for a nice quiet Sunday evening with sloppy joes for supper.

Susan, those bookmarks are so pretty. And, I love your ATCs.
I'll be hoping for a easy round of chemo, and no unpleasant side-effects.
My mother loves IHOP's omelets.

p.s. Hope Vann does well with the treatment and feels good soon thereafter. Please give each other hugs as I cannot be there to do it myself.
Have successfully mitred corners - all 4 - on a Laurel Burch Christmas panel from several years ago and I'm really pleased with how it brightened the panel. It's the usual Laurel Burch riot of glorious colors but on a black background, so is quite striking. It's from her "Holiday Collection".
Canning tomatoes with AMIL in a little while so need to get ready.
Hugs!

Ooooooh! Those lace bookmarks are delicious! And you make the BEST ATCs! Barbara Anne is so right! You DO make them come alive! All are great but my fave is the apron! Love it! Cannot wait to see the quilt! And I already told you via email but will say it again: Vann, hope the chemo helps you feel better! Susan, I'm saying prayers for your hearing! LOVE YOU!!!!
