Hope it's filled with stitching. :)

| French Knot Poodle |
I made this little french knot poodle two years ago. It hangs in our hallway. I made it to look like our Mabel of course. I used various grey dmc threads and tweeded a bit to try and match her shading. She was born black and keep turning lighter and lighter grey slowly. She even has a few touches of silver to her. I framed it in a silver 6x6 frame.

And here she is soaking up the sun. This picture was taken this month by my thirteen year old daughter Madeleine.
Today I will not be stitching until I do finishing first. I must force myself on the finishing part sometimes. I like to take a little while to think on how to finish a stitched piece off. I will finally have a small Christmas themed pillow done today. Then I will be finishing a scissor fob for myself. I do not have one. I made one before, that was a gift for my friend Ruth.
While I work on finishing I will be thinking about what to start next. I am considering a new craft to me. Or I have a sewing project that is waiting. Always something right? :)

Just visited your blog for the first time ... must say I will definitely be back. I particularly liked your small Assisi embroidery piece ... that's one style of embroidery I still haven't tried. In any case, welcome to the blogging world.
