New Santa

When the November issue of The Gift of Stitching magazine came out this month it was love at first sight when I spotted this little guy by Prairie Schooler. I just have a weakness for the big jolly man. He's stitched on 14 count adia in golden harvest using the DMC floss called for.

Autumn Squares

These are the squares I sent to my partner Sabine in the Autumn Exchange.

American Diabetes Month

November is American Diabetes Month, a time to bring even greater awareness and attention to the seriousness of diabetes, its complications, and the importance of proper diabetes control. The American Diabetes Association leverages opportunities both nationally and locally to raise awareness about diabetes and its serious complications such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness and amputations.

Nationwide almost 23.6 million people have diabetes. While 17.9 million people have been diagnosed there are approximately 5.6 million people still undiagnosed. More than ever this disease is affecting minorities and children. Hispanic/Latino Americans are 1.8 times more likely to have diabetes while 1.6 times more African Americans are likely to have diabetes.

Weekly Update

I've been fighting with my sinus allergies most of the week but took advantage of my down time to do a little catching up on one of my WIPs.
