~Home..Sweet Home.

Stay Home..Restez Chez Vous~

The above has all been repaired and ready to frame,grateful I did all those needlepoint Christmas stockings as I had yarn leftover that matched the areas!

In this time of truly nesting at home..
I again implore you to stay home..and not  mingle..

I recently voiced my opinion..to someone from 30 ft away..stating I thought people not going by the rules..were selfish..irresponsible and stupid.
Why should health care workers risk their own lives while idiots disobey?
The person said..:"Oh well..it's human nature..blablabla..."

Sad.
We can't be complacent.
Be aware of all the acts of kindness..but don't stand for ignorance...The ignorance of people not being disciplined.


Being even more at home..than usual..if that's at all possible..I've looked at things more closely..like some stitchery I did in the 70's  and perhaps very early 80's.
They hang in the basement here in the hallway leading to my craft room..which has a lot going on right now..

The first one..I unframed because some stitches were fraying and it was stained..but not many..so I have now restitched the frayed ones on the roof and a few stray ones..it's re~stretched and ready to be stuck in a frame when I can get to one..
They are 16x20.
Caroline wants it..and then Mylène said she would take the others:)
I gave many as gifts..and I gave some to clients.
I regret the gifting of a few;)


Anyway..time to refresh items I have grown to love again.
Linda @  http://linda-keaveney.blogspot.com/  stitched as a young mom too and we follow each other on IG..I told her i would show more details:)
So some are here.

awful pics ..sorry..

I can't tell you how stitching these kept me company as a very young mom in the 70's w/ 2 baby girls sleeping.

I still love stitching~

The pillows are from the same era..but have been in our living rooms..forever..the words..I've always had words pretty much everywhere..

In all of this..  a story that actually made me laugh..

Many of you know that Mylène and Alain wintered Bécassine at their home..not sure when I will have her back..as we are not seeing anyone or going anywhere for feed and such..but she's in great hands.The hands that raised her.

During this quarantine I guess M cleaned out her fridge and found a piece of Boston Cream pie I made for birthdays Feb 14th  ..lol

So Alain fed it to the chickens..it looked fine..lol again..
Anyway the chickens went nuts pecking away like they always do..
but Bécassine pecked twice and walked away.
Alain said to Mylène:"She's just like your mother..2 bites of dessert and that's it"!

SO TRUE.
Anyway made me laugh that Bécassine is like me:)
We all need a smile these days.

If you are still reading..
Take care..Stay Home.

And Thank you M.Legault et Cie for being such a great father to QC.
