I finally finished my Fall embroidery I was doing. It wasn't my choice. I had two but hubby liked this one better cause of the cat. I think I need to get him a kitten. I was going to do the other one too but now I'm on to hand quilting my snowman quilt.
I decided to use crayon on it cause it was kinda blah without it. But I'm not sure. DH says it looks fine with just the sunflowers heavily coloured cause they're the focus. I think it all needs to be heavily coloured. Any opinions? I've never coloured before. Both husband and Michael kept telling me not to go outside the lines *LOL* I also said to DH "Bee's aren't all yellow like that." He said "This one is" *LOL* Gotta love a supportive husband.
I bought this frame at the thrift shop and was going to rough it up to use. But now I saw Angela's Ball stitchery and I'm so totally in love with that frame Jim makes.
DH also found out through the grapevine yesterday that the kid in the park that got stabbed was treated and released. It was really no big deal as stabbings go. Everyone thinks they got out the copter and all congregated around here cause they were bored. The never get to take the copter out cause nothing ever happens around here. Their motto is "No call too small".
There's never much action if they're assigned to the South district. We do have teenage parties and stuff that they break up and they do drive around looking for crime but on the whole I think the job is a bit of a snooze. Of course then they have to do rotations in the North District and it's gotta be a total adrenalin rush for the whole shift up there.
It finally got kinda frosty here last night.. okay 2C (@34F), which is mild compared to other areas, but still I'd have to put a coat on and everything to go out.

No, I'm not chasing Jay 8>) it just sort of worked out this way. I love to do coloring, do you then iron yours to remove the wax and make it permanent? Tell your hubby that you are being creative when you go outside the lines *LOL* I also wanted to let everybody know that I have moved all my crocheting to my other blog so I took the word "crochet" off my blog. So below is the new name and address, you are still listed as a follower but when you try to come see me your link won't work. So here is the new info. Take care, and keep coloring Molly

I like the embroidery just the way it is now. It is very cute.
I LOVE your fall embroidery! (All those french knots were worth it - they look great!) And the coloring really makes the finished design pop!
I like it just the way it is also. I've never tried using crayons, however, I have a magazine which has a piece about using them. Your picture has made me want to try it. Patricia
This is gorgeous. Love the kitty.
