Ann Sandles by With Thy Needle and Thread
40ct RR Iced Capuchino
Called for GAST fibers
Wimbledon has been very entertaining so far. And today is a big day with all the big players playing. Just saw Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge settling down in the royal box to watch Murray. Fingers crossed Murray doesn't get nervous!
Mia has been crazy all week, but slowly settling back down to routine. She's started burrowing under quilts a lot recently.
The boy child has been giving her lots of exercise recently too. I've never seen a cat pant before, but that's exactly what she was doing the other day! Her ears were quite hot too! Here she is after one of her workouts.
She was exhausted!
Summer is really starting now. I have to admit it's nice to have school out.
Thanks as always for stopping by and saying hi. Hope everyone has a great week! For you fellow Wimbledon fans -- go fab four! :D (I heard a commentator say that Murray was the equivalent of Ringo. lol!)

I'm so excited to see your newest Ann come to life. It's a beautiful piece isn't it? Love the pics of Mia and the BC. Have a wonderful week stitching the days away!! Hugs
Love your new start! It's going to be gorgeous!
Have the boy child be careful with Mia when he plays hard with her. When her ears are hot that means she's overheated and could be dangerous for her.
Hugs!
Nice new start and great pics of Mia. x
Can't wait to see your new Ann finished. It will be just a couple of days, right? J/K...love the colors!
Exciting with every new thing you start! Can't wait. The word 'stash' gives me feeling of guilt, though.... sigh. Mia is so cute, as always. No post without Mia:) Maybe you should do a photoseries: how to exercise a cat?
I'm enjoying the tennis too. Glad you were able to settle on which sampler to start next. Looking forward to watching your progress on Ann S.
I always look forward to your weekly reports to see what lovely things you are stitching and also see what is new with your family.
Love your new start and can't wait to see your progress!
Cute pictures of Mia and your son.
Have a great week
Ann is looking pretty so far! I'll have to follow you when I finish with Ann Grant someday!! Did you make all the pretty quilts Mia is laying down on? There seem to be many of them!! Look at Mia who looks totally happy with being with your DS! What a cute little thing she is...
Great start on AS! It really is a beautiful sampler, I think. Can't wait to see your progress/finish. It'll be gorgeous on 40 count.
Cute pics of Mia and the BC!
Such a pretty start and I love the photo of Mia in that beautiful quilt.
Enjoy your 4th of July weekend, Margaret :)
Oooh, love your start on Ann! I can't wait till I can work on that.
Wow, I just read Joanie's comment. I had cats all of my life and never knew that! Great pics of Mia and her guy! :)
What pretty colors in Ann! I have admired this one, but have yet to purchase!
As always, Mia is a doll!
Can't wait to see your progress on your newest Ann! BC sure loves Mia!
Ooooh I do like AS a lot, great colours.
Sorry to hear Mia pants a lot but I think that is normal lol.
Yeahhhh Andy won in 3 straight sets, it gets so exciting!!
Can't wait to see your new Ann!
I just love your stitching...and all your quilts!! And Mia....what a sweetie!!

Mia is so cute!
Ooh, what a gorgeous new start, Margaret!
Mia looks like such a grown-up cat now!
I think you made a great choice there and I shall look forward to watching Ann come to life.
Love the pic of Mia on the pretty patchwork quilt.
Margaret
You picked another great one work on. That is such a pretty sampler (and another one on my list to do one of these days). Glad things are settling down for the summer.
Good! We have two Ann's to watch progress. You have such great close ups, I am anxious to see Ann S. Your Mia sure does love the boy child!
I've been curious about your secret stitching!
What's BC doing for the summer? Mia photographs so well....I'm amazed at how she seems to pose for you!
Lovely new start Margaret and just love the photo of the boy child and his Mia.
Mary
Oh it is a hard life being a cat or a dog lol.
Looking forward to seeing more of Ann. Another lovely sampler for your collection - Sandra.
You know Margaret that I'm not a huge tennis fan BUT how about our boy wonder Tomic, I think he's going to be a force to be reckoned with..! I might have to start watching the tennis more often..lol! Great pics of Mia, she's such a charmer..

Oooohhh, I've seen pictures of Ann Sandles and she's SO pretty! I'm looking forward to watching your progress. Love the picture of Mia and her boy child :-)
Gorgeous new start!
It got hot enough today that I saw one of the chickens panting. Now that is a funny sight!
Great new start. Love the pictures of your cat (and especially love the quilts she's on!) Have just posted a pic on my blog of my rather large cat, maybe I should get your boy child to come over and exercise my cat too!
I'm very excited to see another beautiful sampler materialize under your gifted fingers!
Yeah, the first time I saw a cat pant I was scared! You just don't think that they do that...but they do! I am glad that Mia has such a wonderful playmate...hopefully she will start playing nice with her sister :-)
Stay cool and enjoy Wimbeldon!
Mia looks darling as always. What will you do when the boy child goes away to college?!? Love the colors so far. Can't wait to see your progress!
I wondered how long it would be before you started this Ann. I love the thread colors!
Great start on Ann. Love the photo's of Mia & the boy child
Ann S looks good so far Margaret. Great photos of Mia - she and the boy child really have a special bond, don't they? :)
Really enjoying the tennis this year - all the fab four (yes, Murray is definitely Ringo, the grumpy git!) are through, despite a few dropped sets/injuries and the women's tennis has been a great standard this year too :D
Love your new start on Ann Sandles - she's a pretty one! I love what a bond Mia and your son have!!
I'm always up for some Mia pics!!! :)
Love your new start and look forward to watching your progress on this beauty. Go Murray!! Let's keep everything crossed that all goes well today!
Great start on the new Ann - she'll be a beauty!
Cute kitty pics and I love your new start!!!
Lovely colours and great start on your newest Ann piece.
Mia is such a sweet little kitty, burrowed beneath and on top of your beautiful quilts:)
Love your start on your new Ann. I love this one so I'll enjoy watching it grow:)
Lovely photos of Mia and your son!
Thrilled I found your blog. I love samplers, pin cushions, quilt, cats...looking forward to reading back through posts.
That kitty is so cute! Nice new start!
