I had a gift prepared for Cindy too. I am happy she received it one day after I received mine. She likes LHN, so I sent her the pattern Psalm 145:20. I also made her a bottle cap pincushion and counting pins. Take a look.
Here are pics of the Henry cake I made for Madeleine's 15th birthday party last weekend.
I read the book One Amazing Thing by Chitra Divakaruni. This book was given to Jacob by Marquette University. It is required reading for all incoming freshmen. The freshmen and staff read a fiction book together each year. Then there is a discussion period at the University with the author. So I thought I would read it too. It was okay,not great. Something I never would have read. It opened my eyes to other cultures though.
I do not have finishing to show you. The pain has been nasty for a few days now. I will do the finishing on Snappy Sampler, I just gotta feel a little better first. You can still enter to win the pattern here.
I will be back next time with the winner of the pattern and my little finish of it.
Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Forgot love the cake rather yummy.
The statues are adorable! The pin cushion is so cute! I love the one you made for me, it has a permanent spot by my stitching chair. I have so many pins in it I'm not sure it'll hold even one more! The cakes are awesome! Praying for pain relief for you.

You and your poodles! Cakes, statues, drawings ... it's just poodle city at your place!

The pin cushion is so cute! Very nice stitching.
The cakes are great too. I only make about one cake a year and it's straight out of a box. I'm always in awe of the baking people do.
Such sweet gifts on both ends. That cake(s) look marvelous... and now my stomach is officially grumbling!
Vickie-it looks like the poodles were meant to be together, too perfect! I love, love, love the pincushion, pins and LHN pattern, one of these days I'll get it posted on my blog!

It's so Hendry, LOL
The pincushion is simply fabulous.
Yum Yum cake !

Your bottlecap pincushions are always so teeny and perfect, Vickie! Just look at all those French knots you stitched!! So pretty :)
Love the poodle cakes, too. I'm sorry to hear your pain is so bad again--do you notice it changes at all with the weather?
You love poodles as much as we love our schnauzers.
Take care of yourself -

The poodle you were gifted with is just so cute! Do Mabel and Henry pay any attention to it?
