We're having a heatwave!

Is it HOT where you are??  Just too hot for me, I wish it would snow! lol!

So what's a girl to do in all this heat?  Well, keep cool and STITCH!

I finished another row across, the peacock and duck, except for the grassy ground underneath!  Looks like they are kind of floating along.  So funny, how the size of the birds are so disproportionate to each other.

SDW Sampler

Hope you are all having a wonderful week and keeping cool!
Gigi and I wish you miles of smiles and happy stitching!!   xxxx

Krista, the heat and humidity is awful here too! I can barely stand to step outdoors. I'm with you, I wish for snow! Your SDW sampler is breathtaking, and I love your little Gigi too. I have two black twin cats that look just like her!

SDW is looking fantastic, cool and fresh despite the heat! We even have wonderful hot sunny weather here in Devon UK - and I have been sewing on our porch this afternoon with an iced tea with mango - delicious.
My little black cat Bosun is also too hot - but no complaints, it is just glorious and I am loving it!

Krista, your SDW sampler is gorgeous! I agree with you, the weather has been way too awful to do anything but sit and stitch! Give Gigi a hug from Graycie!

I'm trying so hard to ignore the yuckiness and enjoy the summer, but it is so hard. SDW is looking pretty! Gigi is a beauty and looks quite comfortable there. :)
