Whew...it's been a little crazy around here lately. I still haven't found time to take pictures of the goodies I found at the retreat, but hopefully next posting I'll have them.
I had a little finish last night. This is the pattern I started at the retreat. I'm not sure why I had such trouble with this one, perhaps I'm too preoccupied...anyway, I was able to finally finish last night. This is Winter Songbird by Nath Nalu stitched on 36 count ice blue over two. I'm hoping to finish it so that I can attach it to the clock during the winter months. There are three other pattens like this one on the Nath Nolu Etsy page for the other 3 seasons. I've since bought them, so watch this space! LOL!! I really do love how it turned out!
While we were in Ocean City, we visited Assateague State Park. I love driving along the National Seashore and looking for the wild ponies. Before we even got to the park, we found a group of 7 of them walking down the center of the road. They were in no hurry while cars were lining up behind them. They look like such gentle creatures, but there are signs warning they bite and kick so beware!
We saw a lot of water fowl along the way too. Spring seems to make everything come alive. Here are a few pictures of what we were able to spy as we drove along.
I hope one day to take our granddaughters out there to see the ponies and other animals. What a lovely drive it is! We found some time to visit a few of our favorite places, one being Shenanigans...The food as always was delicious!
Hopefully I'll have more news next time. We'll be super busy the next few weeks...hopefully I'll be able to share now and then what we are up to! Till then, Happy Stitching!

Love the bird finish, DJ! It will look fabulous in your clock. I enjoyed all the pictures from your trip. What beautiful colors!
Love your photos! The last two are gorgeous! 🥰 That last one is frame-worthy! As a land-locked Arizonan, the ocean has always intrigued me. I think, in my 62 years, I've stood on a California beach just 4 or 5 times. I need more!😁have a great weekend!
The little bird is adorable. Looking forward to seeing your other three as they come along. Sounds like you had a very nice retreat. Enjoyed seeing the nature pictures you took. AND that sunset! WOW!!
