Just a little note...

Unbelievable but true...

My father came home from hospital yesterday! They haven't found anything "wrong" with his heart. His pacemaker is doing well, and his heart is going fast and slow, but that's not something new. I've said to him: "Don't pray to much about leaving this world, please." He is so strong! Unfortunately Parkinson disease is getting him really hard again. I wish I could take it away from him.

And a little update about stitching. My first PIF is finished. All I have to do is finish finish it, but that's for the weekend. My second PIF is waiting for some thread I haven't in my stash. Just now I've search some more projects for the other members and I found lovely charts for them. Be patient, please!

Thank you all for your prayers about my father! You all are the best friends I have around the world!

Love and hugs and till next time...

Unfortunately some sad news. Last night I spent 3 hours in the hospital. My father went with the ambulance to the hospital again. His heart almost stopped (to slow) and he's now in intensive care. If it comes so far, he doesn't want any reanimation.
So hard times again for our family. Posting and thinking about all of you, have to take my mind off.

Anyway, I will keep you posted!

Love and hugs, till next time...

Last Day for the Give-A-Way

Just a little reminder for all of you bloggers and blogreaders: today is the last day you can enter in the draw for my special Birthday Give-A-Way.

If you know any other people who love to do punchneedle, give them the message!

Everybody is welcome!

Now I must go to finish my first project for a PIF-member; just a couple of stitches more and then finish finish it.
So for today, just a little post.

Happy weekend with a lot of stitching time!

Lots of hugs and love!

Lots of WIP's!

I was going through my very big WIP-basket yesterday evening, and I found this lovely Doll House again. So I couldn't help myself, and put some more stitches in a "new" room. No, not really new. I pulled it all out the last time. I had made a terrible misstake on some stitches unfortunately. It's stitched over one on 32-count. After three hours this is how much I've done. Not bad, isn't it? As far as it was earlier. A sweet tiny boysroom!

It's hard to choose from so many great projects, so I also made some little progress for one of my PIF members. I will let you take a little sneak peak on it.

Ofcourse It's just a little piece of the whole project, otherwise It isn't a suprise anymore.

Special thanks to Paulette, she teached me how to use my own camera for making close up's.

Thanks for looking and for your comments. I appreciate them very much.
Till next time...

Mary Margaret update.

To proof (mostly for myself) that I'm stitching again, I have to show some progress pictures on my Mary Margaret.(Click on photo, to enlarge, if you want a closer look)

As you can see, last weekend I made a little progress with the tree on the left.
The other girls are waiting to stitch also, so I must keep the needle going, right?
Thanks for stopping by and your comments. I love to read them. Love and hugs!

First stitches are made and some pictures from our holiday!

Yeah, I have stitched the first cross stitches again, after a very long time. It's for the first PIF-member, so I can't show you any picture. But it's almost done, and then I have to finish finish it.

That's why I want to share a couple of pictures of our holiday to Crete - Greece this year: (click on picture to enlarge)
