Max and his little girl

We adopted a seven year old Golden Retriever Named Max right before Christmas and he quickly became Emmy's best buddy. He is the most laid back fellow and is quite tolerant of being dressed up as a tiger or more often than not a pack horse. She loads him up with blankets and he roams around the house loaded down LOL! Max is such a sweetie we are all thrilled to have him join the family!

Gettin my Valentines on and guilt free Chocolate!

Getting my Valentines on! I have been cranking out embroidered pillows for the shop.
 Here are just a few of the pillows I have made in the last two weeks

I really like this guilt free chocolate pillow!

and last but not least I made this necklace last night from some gorgeous taffeta ribbon and buttons and seed pearls.
 I haven't made one quite like this before but have been doing ribbonwork for many years. I am really loving this necklace, thinking I may do one with violets next cause I so heart violets!
