The knotwork piece by Teresa Layman Designs is complete - even the finishing, LOL! It actually wasn't hard and went fairly quickly. I'm not sure if I like how it is sitting in the piece though. It seems that when I center this based on the acorn, the squirrel seems to lean forward, and when I center on the squirrel the acorn and leaves look out of place. What do you think? At this point I haven't been able to find a position that I'm happy with.My mom got Be Scary and I'm waiting on her to send me a picture of it so that I can post it. I cannot believe that I went and mailed it off without taking a picture. So much for having a clear mind after returning from retreat.
After listening to much nagging from DH when I complain about my weight, I've gone a signed up for a Zumba class. I've heard that this is a lot of fun. The class is filling up quickly so I hope that this is a good omen. I hate to give up an evening of stitching time, but dieting alone isn't working for me.
I picked up some fabric and ribbon to make the Chocolate Covered Cherries piece into a pin keep. I haven't been able to find any cute pins for around the edges. Can any of you ladies that regularly make pin keeps tell me where to find these? Once I get these, I'll be ready to go.

Cute finish, I keep saying I am going to try one T. Layman's designs. But, I haven't yet. What is Zumba? I have never heard of this. Good luck with it however.
You can usually find pins in hobby lobby or michaels, joann's.
That piece is really cute!
Zumba is a fusion of Latin and international music into aerobic exercise.
Zumba sounds fun!!!!! Love the piece...never saw the knot work tho!
My goodness, you must have had bucketloads of patience to finish this piece - It looks fantastic - and I think the placing of it looks fine as it is. Mind you I would think the same, but we all get critical of our own work. Thanks for dropping by and cheering me up - bless you! xx
