Re-design,

I have a hard time with making small patterns. So, making a FOB was a scary thing to me. But, I did it!  Okay, so I re-designed my Ornament pattern. It still looks good and could be a FOB or an Ornament. What do you all think?

It must be the tea.

Well, today started out okay and got worse as time went on. I am pretty sure it was the tea's fault. An order was all wrong, my printer and computer were having a fight. I am sure the tea started it. I had had enough of it and decided my time would be better spent making a nice glass of tea. Ten minutes later I sat down, sipped on some tea and what do you know...everything was better. Really!  Not only did I feel calmer but the order that was messed up was now fixed, the computer was sharing nicely with the printer. I can't explain it and don't want to try but I am sure it must have had something to do with the tea.

Christmas/Winter ornament coming soon!

I think it would be awesome to be in a magazine. Especially the JCS ornament issue. Since I don't see that happening any time soon I decided to make an ornament anyway. It's a freebie and it will be posted on my website soon. http://shipsmanor.com

I have been working hard on new designs. Hopefully I will have 4 more released this year. One is already done, it's being framed and I should have it charted out a couple of days after getting it from the framer. I am having Jill Rensel do the framing. I spent some time a couple of weeks ago picking out the frame and mat colors. I am very excited to see it. The other 3 patterns I want to release are not stitched yet. Well, all three are about half way done. I may release 3 patterns in November and then 2 in December. I don't know. :/
