Wheeee! I Am Down To Three!
Hi friends! I have knocked off another two pages of the Theotokos pattern. Three more partially completed pages to finish now. Here is a progress picture.
My stitching companion keeps my seat warm while I bake bread.
Today I made Sweet Italian Bread. In case you have not noticed, I like to use my bread machine often. I love to bake. I made the dough in the machine, and baked these in the oven. The egg wash on the loaf on the right is crackled on top because it fell onto the bread board. ;)
I set out some Valentine treasures.
This is a collection of past Valentine stitches. There are two pincushions I received as gifts from stitchy friends in there also. :)
Now I am TRULY motivated friends! I feel the end coming on with Theotokos! Whoo hoo!

Congratulatiosn on the page finishes. It looks wonderful. Your bread looks fantastic as well.
Its looking great!
Stunning progress!
You always make the best looking bread, Vickie!! That is probably my biggest weakness (after chocolate!).
What great progress--I'm amazed at how quickly this is coming together :)
Oh, it is looking so good, Vickie! What kind of a stand do you use? It looks like it sits on the table?? Love the picture of Henry!
That is absolutely stunning work and Henry is a great seat warmer isn't he?
Yummy, yummy bread! And so pretty!
I LOVE your stitching--it is just gorgeous and I have enjoyed checking on it to see your progress! It will be so stunning when finished!
What a cute way to display your precious Valentine/Heart treasures! You are so festive!!!
Theotokis is looking amazing! Wow! And the bread. Yum! My FIL was really into his bread machine too. We inherited it, but DH is much more into just doing bread the old fashioned way, by hand. Love all your Valentines goodies!
Your stitching looks amazing! I can't believe how little you already have left!!!
What a cute little seat warmer. ;-)
You are making fantastic progress!
Wow you stitch fast. That is amazing progress.
Positively beautiful stitching, I look forward to seeing this beautiful stitch finished.
Your seat warmer is so cute.
Yummy bread, there is nothing better then the smell of bread cooking.

Your Theotokos is awesome and you have stitched it very fast. Good luck to the end of your progress.
Your valentine display is lovely also.
Hello Vickie,
I love your display with the 'glass house', that's a nice idea ...
The feeling of a n
'nearly finish' is great, isn't it? Enjoy the last stitches & have a nice day.
Greetings, Carolien

This is a really beautiful design Vickie.
I love your Valentine display and the bread looks sooooooo tasty.
Well done, it's a wonderful update!
Lovley progress and such tasty looking bread.
The valentine collection looks so pretty.
its looking so beautiful x
Whoo hoo, indeed! This stitching is pretty demanding and you have made that much already. Very impressive!!!

Hugs

Wow! I haven't seen your WIP in awhile its looking amazing!
Theotokos is getting more and more beautiful, the more details you add. Great stitching on this project. And such lovely little smalls that you decorate with for Valentine's Day.
Congratulations on your progress! That is some sampler! Very impressive.
I like how you've displayed your Valentine smalls. Is that a terrarium? It's a great idea!
Bread looks delicious!
Congrats on the great progress! You are going to make the deadline! The bread looks absolutely yummmmmy!! I might look into making bread at home... Hugs!
Oh my goodness Vickie...look at that! GO GO GO!
I love my bread machine too...i don't typically bake in it, but I use it A LOT for the dough mixing. Its excellent!
Another contraption I got recently and I seem to use A LOT is a rice cooker. It makes the best rice...it really does.
Cheering you on Vickie...
Beautiful display.
Take care!
Beautiful! This is going to be an heirloom! Your bread looks so good and all your Valentines and poodles are perfect. I still have my Christmas tree up but am hoping to get everything put away in the next couple of days. It takes me a lot longer these days to do things.
Where do you find those poodle cartoons? So adorable!!
Blessings - Julie
Wow, Vickie! Theodotos has really come along, so wonderful to be so close to the finish line. Well done.
Your bread looks pretty yummy, too.
This is stunning and so elegant. A true heirloom when you're done. The display for your Valentine's Day - is that a terrarium? What a great idea to show off your treasures.
Hugs

This project is so beautiful.
The bread that you have been making looks so wonderful too.
Lovely Valentines pieces.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Been thinking of you! I am sitting for one standard poodle and two toy poodles. So sweet.
Beautiful stitching! Your bread looks so yummy too -- even with the cracked egg wash.
Theotokos looks amazing, it's well worth all the hours of stitching. I love that cute little bundle keeping your seat warm. You bake delicious looking bread - I never got into my bread machine and seeing what you make inspires me to try again.
At long last I'm back to visiting your blog. It seems like forever since I was last here! Theotokos is looking amazing!
That bread looks yummy.
You have a great collection of smalls for Valentine's! So pretty! :)
