Crafting

 Last weekend Hubby and I traveled to California for a visit with our son and his family. We got to play with our grandson and snuggle our granddaughter. 


The latter photo was when we babysat so our son and daughter in law could enjoy a dinner date. 

I got a chance to work on Cinnamon House on the plane. 

All of my other projects are too large to travel with, so this was best to bring. 

There has been a whole lot of stitching completed on the Christmas stocking.

 I am almost done with the toe and will then work my way up the stocking backstitching as I go. 

Almost all of the Granny square centers are complete. They just need the surrounding white row. 

This has become my nightly TV watching craft. I want to finish it soon and start another yarn craft. 

I recently read The Lost Dresses of Italy. 

This was an enjoyable book. There is a little bit of intrigue/mystery set in post WWII Italy. It also is a fictional account of the life of the poet Christina Rossetti. 

I am joining Kathy for some Slow Sunday Stitching. I hope you take some time to sit back with some tea or coffeen and pop on over to their sites to see what other bloggers are stitching. 

Thanks for stopping by!
