My Friday Night Sew-In Results

Hello!  :)

I haven't been feeling well the past few days so I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to participate in the Friday Night Sew-In this month. I missed last month's so I really wanted to take part this month. I did manage to find a project that I could work on without too much effort on my part. What did I work on? I made lots of progress on the cross stitch piece I'm working on for my exchange partner in the Stitched With Love Exchange. The only thing is that I can't show it to you. I know . . . it sucks! I do have a couple of other cross stitch projects I worked on last week that I haven't showed you yet. Would you like to see them?

I hope you said yes because I'm going to show you anyway.  ;)  I'm working on Lizzie Kate's Monthly Stamp Flip-It's. The first one I did is for June.


I'm going to be making these into little pillows for every month. I hope I'll be able get this one done before June begins (or at least before it ends). Here's a closer view. I love the little buttons!  :)


I also managed to get started on the one for July.


I had to stop working on this one though as I have to get my exchange gift done and ready for mailing by June 1st.

I'm so glad you stopped by to see what I did on Friday night. I sure wish I felt better but hopefully I will soon. I don't go to the doctors (a specialist) until the 27th though. Without going into too many details, it's a female problem that's been bugging me since February and it's gotten much worse this past week. I think if I can survive the next few days I'll be able to make it until my appointment. Please pray for me. I would also appreciate it if you can keep my sister, Tammie in your prayers. She just found out that she might have leukemia. She's going in for more tests at the end of the month. When it rains it pours, doesn't it? Well I believe in rainbows and I know one's coming around the corner soon.  :)

Until next time . . .

Your cross stitch looks great. I've tried that and I always seem to lose count and you know how that goes.
You and you sister will be in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you both receive good news during your doctor visits and get well soon.

Cherise, I am so sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. I hope you get results soon. I will be praying for you and your sister. I hope it is not Leukemia. Your cross stitch is so cute. I use to cross stich a lot, but anymore I mainly do just stitcheries. I do love hand stitching. Thanks for sharing with Share Your Cup.
Hugs,
Jann
