Sunday

And a productive one it was, too! I went to church -- twice, actually, because I was filling in for the pianist at one of our sister churches -- did a load of laundry, did the ironing (which wouldn't be nearly the chore that it is if I'd do it when I do laundry instead of letting it pile up for three weeks), baked a batch of cookies and packed some of them to mail to my guy, tried a new recipe and watched the Steelers lose. Oh, and I managed some stitching. I finished the stag; there's a crescent moon in the medallion, so I'm doing that in pink. After I finish this one, I have two more medallions and the rest of the alphabet and I can put this one on the completed list!

Doris, your comment made me smile. Chariot races are very distracting, as are galley battles. Ben Hur is one of my favorite movies; not only is it a great movie, but Charlton Heston in 1959 was definitely a hunk!

Woohoo! Great progress, Karen! Especially with that busy day that you had. The cookies sound good!

Eww....Charlton Heston. I rather Hugh Jackman. LOL Just kidding. Your piece is stunning ~ Dawn ~

Mmmmm, cookies. After yesterday's football games, I've decided that the Broncos are nearly as distracting as chariot races!
