Yeah!

Happy it is Friday and happy my house is done. The piece will fly now I'm sure. :-)

Someone made a comment yesterday or the day before about how long houses seem to take and they sure do. :-) But always so worth it.

No plans for the coming weekend except crafting, crafting and more crafting. I do have the usual household chores to deal with, more than last weekend so I don't expect to get as much done as I did last Saturday and Sunday. But on my list is: finish my four Civil War Tribute quilt blocks, start and complete month 3 (it should arrive today or tomorrow in the mail), work on cutting out and starting to piece my last quilt kit purchased from last year's International Quilt Show (a lap size flannel quilt), stitch my Margaret H piece and maybe start on a new rug.

I do want to maximize my time however as my next two weekends are going to be pug weekends. Next Saturday and Sunday I'm attending an agility seminar with Eva Bertilsson and Emelie Johnson Vegh - they are the hottest agility thing out of Sweden these days. They have a new book out covering agility and clicker training. I love clicker training for my dogs but I have not used it much with agility and I'm hopeful it will help me with some problem areas that I have. It will be a lot of fun for sure. The weekend after that I'll be with Clancy at an agility trial in St. Charles, IL.

Please everyone enjoy your weekend! And thanks for stopping by. :-)

Hi Margie,

I just came across your blog while surfing on the internet. You are working on some wondeful projects. It was a joy to watch your blog. I will come back to visit your blog again. I'm an addicted crafter as well and especially for cross stitching.

Greetings from Belgium,
Wendy

Yay! Congrats on finishing the house! You're right -- now it should fly by. Have fun crafting this weekend.

When I was a newbie I told my sister that I was "only going to stitch houses". And then I bought about a ga-jillion charts with houses on them.

Sadly, I did not notice the look on her face, nor did I see her shaking her head and rolling her eyes at me for being such a boob.

But you're right...once they're completed they're fabulous!
