AIR DALES

Air Dales are on the frame...working on a different breed each month.  Busy filling orders and working on a new design for February.  Hattie is on the mend, I'm trying to get in a little yoga each day to help my back.  Still sleeping on the couch (hence the back slipping in & out) I just don't trust Hattie on the stairs.  Maybe we'll venture up tonight.  Keep on punchin.

VALENTINES

This simple design is one of my favorites...Several years ago it was published as one of my cross stitch patterns.  I have reworked it for punch needle.  Keep on punchin.

PUNCHIN ALL DAY KNITTIN ALL NITE

It's amazing how much I can get done when I have several days and nights in a row at home.  I've been taking care of Hattie all week and I'm happy to report, she has starting eating...her head is still tilted and her left side is weak.  Not trusting her on the stairs yet, so I'm still sleeping on the couch.  I'm punching up some pin sized Dala Horses just finished this garter stitch little jacket.  Just need 2 fabulous buttons  There's a oval Claddagh design on my drawing board waiting for me to select threads (always my favorite part).  Keep on punchin.

TIME OUT

Time Out is depicts an old sled and a pair of skates leaning up against the side of a faded barn.  I wanted something Winter that wasn't Christmas!  I've just ordered some of these finished paddles.  It's on to  Heart themed designs for February.  My local Blogger Buddies don't forget it's lunch & punch this Saturday.  See ya there.  Keep on punchin.

THE RABBIT & THE RED SLED

Unfortunately there's very little snow left, it's been washed away with a rainy drizzle.  Hattie is a little better, she is still leaning to the left, her head is quilted, and she has very little appetite.  Remember  she was the dog who once grabbed a rotisserie chicken off the counter and ate the whole thing while I was upstairs changing my clothes!  Reworking Jingle Bell & Stocking Stuffer Santa's will post soon.  There is a little winter scene on my drawing board and I hope to get back to it this week.  Keep on punchin.
