Last week I stitched up and finished into a pillow Dreaming Is Free, Three Little Words by Lizzie Kate. This pattern was a giveaway win from our friend Lee.
Do you like this Sprats Head Heart? I love the look of it! I chose to put this motif into the pattern instead of the called for two butterflies. No offense June! I just don't like stitching butterflies, as I find them creepy close up! (I'm a bug wimp!)
The winner of the Shepherd's Bush pattern My Mom's Garden is our friend Irmeli! The pattern will be on it's way to you shortly Imreli. I just need your address! :)
I read the book Bite the Biscuit by Linda Johnston. A good mystery book, as I could not figure out who dunnit til the end. :)
If you are so willing, would you pray for our dear Mabel? She has had another back flare up. She began walking on three legs 11 days ago. I spoke with the veterinarian last week and will check in with him again on Friday. I am giving her the full set of prescription medications for when she has problems with her spine. Brian and I have a feeling she has slipped another disc this time. That would make 8! She is still wagging her tail, rolling over for belly rubs and eating fine. She will stand on all four legs. It is hard to see her struggle though. The vet has told us over these two years that eventually her back is what will be the end of her. With 7 or more slipped discs, her spine will become less and less stable. We are of course hoping that she can stabilize and do well again. She is so extremely smart and very loving.

I love your little finish, a very creative way to make this little pillow just your own.
Don't include me in the draw, please, I already have far too many things that I will stitch in the future. Someone else should have the chance to win this little chart.
I do believe in miracles--and my husband's recovery is proof! That is a darling finish, Vickie!
So sorry to hear Miss Mabel is hurting--that is so hard for us to watch our beloved pets in any sort of pain.
Hope September is off to a wonderful start for you!
Gentle hugs and prayers for Mabel!
Love the finish! SO cute!!
Poor Mabel, I hope and pray the vet can help her. She looks like a real sweetie.
I love what you did with the LK pattern! You made it totally your own. It's very kind of you to offer it as a giveaway. It is a design I would love to stitch one day but I have a lot on my plate at the moment so I will pass this time.
Yes I believe in miracles too!
Dear Vicky , your pillow is enchanting . The embroidery is already only be beautiful but by your great workmanship occurs only perfectly. I wish you that your prayers will be answered , at the moment I am praying a lot for two people and certain hope in God's goodness . Best wishes for Mabel and turns everything to good .
Greetings Sandra
Oh, Vickie - poor Mabel! I hope she gets better soon. I know how difficult it is to watch our little fur babies go through health issues. Just like when our children were little, you just want to be able to take the pain away. I'd love to be the lucky stitcher for your give away. The pattern is so sweet!
Hugs

Lovely finish. May your prayers be heard.
I'm so sorry for Mabel and hope she gets better soon.
Your pink pillow is adorable, it's so pretty. This time I will not participate in the draw, because I just won, and I thank you for it. I have already sent you an email :)
Very sweet pillow you made, the patchwork bottom is adorable.
Best wishes for Mabel xx
Just discovered your lovely blog in blogland, I would love to enter the giveaway, sending good wishes to Mabel
Beautiful pillow finish. Good luck to everyone in the draw, please don't include me this time though.
Sending special thoughts to Mabel too, poor old lady.
You stitch a bee but not a butterfly! You are friends with toads! Ahhh, how befuddling. :) Your little pillow is darling though it is hard to guess the finished size of it. Will it be going in your terrarium?
Please do not include me in the draw though you are sweet to offer it up!
Love this finish Vickie! I know that your prayers will be answered.
I hope that Mabel has improved. Sending well wishes!
I just want to cry for Mabel, I will pray for her to heal and get better.
I will pray to St. Anthony for Mabels healing.
Congratulations to the winner of Shepherds Bush.
Please do not include me in your giveaway, I have way to many patterns to get to now.
I love what you did with the pillow, the fabric choice on the pattern picture is not as pretty as yours, pink is such a happy color.
Blessings
Catherine
