March Cottage Finish!

Love the WDW Envy..yummy green.

A frequent visitor to our birdfeeder, a Eurasian Collared Dove. They've been cooing non stop now that the weather is warming up.

Yay! I am so happy to finally finish March Cottage. I spent most of February sick with an awful cold and cough which is now all gone. I tried stitching while sick and of course made mistakes I had to frog. I pushed through and finished the last bit this morning while watching The X-Files on Netflix instant. (Huge X-Files fan..hehe).

I recieved the April Cottage chart and specialty threads from ABCStitch but they must have run out of fabric as they noted in the package that it was to follow. This SAL must be pretty popular I don't doubt they've gone through a LOT of Lambswool linen.

I thought I'd share some pictures of things other than cross stitch..lol. The lovely Flame Point Snowshoe Siamese glowing in the sunshine is Vincent. He's my husbands best bud, although he likes me too. He is the most mellow cat I've ever met, nothing but the vacuum phases him. He hasn't got a mean bone in his body and he and our other cat Sage keep us entertained daily with their wrestling and running through the house.

We keep a few birdfeeders in our yard and get quite a few birds coming in for a bite to eat. With the snow we had earlier in February and now with the warmer Spring coming these Eurasian doves are pairing up and cooing all day long. They hang out on my neighbors' roof and come down for feeding. Our warm Spring days went away though and it's now a week of rain here in Southern Oregon. If only my fabric would get here it'll be perfect weather to huddle down and stitch!
