Happy 2013!

Hello Dear Friends,
  I hope that you had a wonderful last weekend of 2012.  Rich and I had company, his brother, sister-in-law and their grandson got here late Saturday and left early this morning. It was great to catch up. The cats were a little freaked out, Binx spent the weekend under the quilts on my bed.
  I have not stitched at all. That needs to change soon. I am ready for the New Year to start and to get into a regular schedule again, with work, exercising and stitching.
  Here is a little collage of some of the projects that I completed in 2012. I don't think that it is all of them.
I am looking forward to finishing some WIPs and UFOs in my stash. I added some wonderful projects to that stash this past year and I would love to stitch some of those too.
   New Year's Eve will be quiet for Rich and I. After work we will have some hot appetizers for dinner and will probably be in bed before midnight. For New Year's Day hopefully we will get out and hike and after that there will be some stitching and a laid back day.
   At the close of 2012 I would like to say thank you to all my blog friends. Thank you for the friendship throughout the year, the inspiration and encouragement. I am looking forward to stitching with you in 2013!


Chris

What a lot of lovely finishes, Chris!

Sounds like you have nice plans to end one year and start another! We are having a couple of friends for a quiet dinner tonight. Definitely will be asleep well before midnight. Then tomorrow I hope will get some stitching time!

Happy New Year to you!

Beautiful stitchings/finishes Chris! I especially like the one in the lower right corner : ) I did not keep track of my stitching projects last year. I must remember to do that this year. I hope you have a wonderful New Year!

What a great trip down memory lane, Chris--you sure had some lovely finishes in 2012. MY favorite is the deer alphabet--just love those colors.

I wish you and Rich a most happy New Year with only things that make you smile :)
