After our crazy busy weekend last week we decided to take it a bit easy. Which means, stitching!
I worked on Cherly's Bouquet in the SAL weekend, she is coming along and should be in line for a finish this year if I put a few extra hours into her:
I also got a page finish on Elfland!! Even though the new SAL SK has started I still want to get Elfland finished. One more page to go on her.
I picked up my travel light at my LNS from Daylight. I am a bit disappointed that it doesn't have a cover over the bulb, as the bulbs are very expensive and I worry that I may hit it with my scroll rods. But we will see. It looks like there is a new one on their site that twists and has a cover (for the same price!) but I am not sure if it is available yet. But anyways doesn't matter as this is the one I have. It's to take to 12 hours that away from home and retreat in September!
And finally we got the cutest pillows ever at the Stampede (they have a vendor area that is always fun to walk through). These are called Pillow Pets and I gotta tell you it is the softest coziest little pillow I've ever had! They fold in to be a larger pillow:
My turtle works great in place of my traditional pillow (when he is folded out) to hold my stitching on my lap.
I know I am very behind on posting comments to people's blogs. I am sooo sorry. I will try and catch up again. There are just too many great blogs out there!
I had an influx of followers this week, up to 149! I promised a giveaway at 140, so I will do one for sure in the next week. I just didn't have a chance to get it together in time for today. But I promise later this week you'll see one. And who knows maybe we will be celebrating 150 by then! :)
Thanks for all your comments and for following! :)

Wonderful stitching and congrats on reaching a magical number in followers. I am up to seven followers! The first time I checked my blog and saw that I had followers, I ran screaming to my husband, shouting,"I have followers!" lol He thought that I had lost my mind!
Those pillows are adorable. I like the penguin. :) I've seen something like them advertised on TV. Your stitching looks great. Maybe you could return the light and get the other one?
Congratulations on the large number of followers. I was happy to hit 20. :) I think my problem is that I don't comment on other blogs every much. I'm too shy.
I love those pillows! And Bouquet for Cheryl is looking great.
Great stitching. Those pillow pets are adorable. I got the ladybug one last year for my 3 yr old niece and she sleeps with him every night. I want one for myself...they are so soft!
Love the pillows/cushions in UK....My two canine friends would spoil them if I had anything like that.
Everything looks great and those pillows are just too cute.
