Marvelous Monday Update 4/13/09

Stitchy Stuff
Guess what? My Needlebook Tutorial has been added to Needlepointers.com in several places! (Sewing Tutorial, Needlework Finishing Techniques, and Needlework Free Projects) Plus... In May, it will be featured on the homepage for a week!

I was the winner of a giveaway Lisa was hosting on her blog. I'd forgotten all about it until I received it in the mail last week. Look what the postman brought me!

A big thank you to Lisa for hosting the giveaways!


Finally, my WIP photos for the week... With how busy I've been, I'm surprised I even have anything to show!

School
As most of you know, I'm enrolled in an online class this semester: Intermediate Accounting. I'm in the 3rd week of 8, and so far it's been uneventful. Since I work in the accounting industry, the chapters so far are remedial for me. I had my first test last week and got an "A". I could've kicked myself for changing an answer (I had it right before I changed it). Oh well.

That is nice that your class is simple so far for you. But hopefully you learn something new soon to make it feel worthwhile for you! :)

Love the colours in your quaker. Some nice dyed floss you have there.

Mona & Miles are very cute. And the Quaker cube will be pretty I am sure.
My first college teacher taught me to never change an answer. She has been right most of the time!

Congrats on the Tutorial. Face it, you are famous and you deserve it. I have always loved your tutorials and I hope you will do more when you are not so busy.

Take it easy. When will you be posting some plant photos??? Or is it still too cold up your way?

Your story about the Garage Door Opener just cracks me up...that is so funny the way you told the story.

I love your stitching too...what is the name of your Stitching Magazine that you got? I couldn't see no name on there when I looked at the picture.

Congratulations on your Needlebook Instructions being featured on all of those sites...good for you...I am so happy for you.

Take care & Happy Stitching
