NO LONGER A UFO . . .

. . . or for those of you not familiar with the lingo: UnFinished Object.
And I might just take some sort of a prize for just how long this has been unfinished.
I actually started this needlepoint for my son in 1978! I'll do the math: that's 32 years ago!
I had forgotten about it until last summer when I came across it as I was looking for something else. So now it's not for my son, but for HIS son!


Just in time to take it to him when we visit that NY family for Easter.

And speaking of Easter, I think I'll add these wash cloths with some cute little soaps to the children's Easter Baskets.


Can't wait to see them all.
But in the meantime: HOORAY, today one of my daughters is coming with her 3 youngest children and we are going to spend a lot of time just sittin' and stitchin'!
Can't think of a better way to spend a day!

Mary Lynn, thanks for not making me feel bad about not finishing the kids' birth announcements. Since they're 26 and 21, respectively, I guess I do have some time!! LOL

It's a lovely piece of work.

This is a lovely pillow. I'm sure the grandchildren will love the clothes.
