FAW-TY TWOO

Today my little sister turns 42.  How is that even possible?  I wish that I could tell you that we were off on some grand adventure, or that the naked dancing men would be here soon, but the truth of the matter is that it's cold and gloomy and Aunt Chrissy isn't feeling well at all today, so we will probably just take naps and call it a day.  Phooey.

Here's Laura J. Perin's Bargello Egg with yellow flowers:





I just can't decided whether or not to do Laura's suggested background, or to go nutso with a fancypants mat and framing.  For now, though, I think we're going to put this in the FUPPY pile and move on to a little cross stitch.

What's new with you?

  4. I would love to sing happy birthday to your sister but the dogs in my neighborhood howl and the neighbors call the cops thinking I am in heat or something.
    Happy Birthday Chrissy.
    Love the egg.

  5. Happy Birthday to Chrissy. Too bad about the dancing men. ;) The egg is much more spring-y with yellow flowers. I've forgotten what "FUPPY" means.

    Nothing new going on in these parts. The cherry blossoms around the Tidal Basin probably all fell off with this morning's wind and thunderstorms.

  10. The yellow flowers are pretty. The chocolate flowers had more contrast. I still want to bite the chocolate bunny ears off. Maybe I have been on this item too long. Hope Aunt Chrissy feels better soon.
