Some Finishes and Happy Mail!

I meant to post yesterday, but have you ever had one of those days where you were busy-busy-busy but got nothing done? That was my yesterday. I turned around and it was 11:00 pm. Oh, well. Here's my Mother's Day gift from Jeff and the Kids -

I'm so happy! It might help with this:

Which is what I call my "finishing basket". These are completed cross stitches that need to be backed or stuffed. I was sewing everything by hand. There are still some things that I will sew by hand, but now I can get more done! Yeah!!
Here are some finishes - just the stitching, though.

One is the Prairie Schooler Santa I mentioned in an earlier post and the other is another University of Tennessee Christmas Ornament for my UT tree.

Here's some Happy Mail from my Monthly exchange with Michelle. It's a Scissors Case and it is BEEEEutiful. Her finishing is fantastic. I'm a lucky girl to have her for my exchange partner.!!

And, finally, how can a person eat all of this, stay this skinny and then be hungry and eat a full dinner 15 minutes later? LOL!

Well, I've been chatty today! Tomorrow is Thrifty Thursday - wait until you see that deal I got! Oh and if anyone has seen our warm weather, please direct him or her back here. Pronto. I'm tired of sweater and winter coat in May!
