September 2 was my 60th birthday.... why is it I feel like I'm still 30????
This is a With thy Needle and Thread design I received from my sister.........can't wait to start it!  Aren't the threads yummy colors?
              

 Husband invited my family & friends for pizza and cake and after everyone went home we took off for a surprise trip to Canada for a long weekend!!

 We had a small incident at the border crossing into Canada...when the border patrol asked him where we were going he said   "I can't tell you because it's a surprise for my wife and I don't want her to know where we are headed".........well,  what do ya think happened next???

Yep, we were pulled over and then directed to go inside headquarters or whatever it's called and he was interrogated by 3 different officials!!!  It was all quite a big mix up but after he explained WhY he didn't want me to know they let us go!!  Poor guy, he was so shook up.  I have to say, though,  we are grateful that the border patrol are that vigilant but next time I'm driving!!

 Millcroft Inn outside of Toronto where we stayed for 4 beautiful days~~



  
   But, now back to reality...         

Snowgirl??  snow queen??   Spent 3 days trying to make an umbrella..I have always liked the vintage postcard depicting a snowman holding an umbrella.
But as you can see I don't think I was very successful with it...
So, back to the basement for some fresh new ideas....check back for the 2nd edition..

Trying to find time to finish my rug
