A Cross Stitch Finish and Bonnie Hunter Mystery

It's been kind of  slow month.  My machine (Bernina 750) has been in the shop for the past two weeks so not a whole lot of quilting going on.  But I did finish a cross stitch piece.  It's a Prairie Schooler Santa.  See photo above.  This is the one with the Sewing Machine.  I also have the pattern with a quilt and that will be the next one I work on.  They are pretty easy patterns and they use mostly the same DMC colors so they all coordinate.  They have an annual Santa.  The one with the sheep is from this year and the sewing machine one is from a previous year.

As far as the Bonnie Hunter 2019/2020 mystery Frolic goes, I was caught up until yesterday.  Now that my machine will be back (today) I can work on yesterday's clues.  I don't have pictures of my finished Clue 1 & 2 but here are pictures of the pieces I needed to make those clues.  I'm trying to do mine in Fall colors.  It will be dark (not a lot of contrast) but I'm okay with it.  I wanted to use the metallic fabrics because that's what I like.

I decided to just use one constant green instead of the ones you see here.

Hurley our new little puppy is thriving and growing.  He's a very lovable little guy - still likes to eat paper and bringing in small twigs that he's chewing and he will nip at your hands and arms.  I'm working hard with him to break this habit.  But since I'm gone all day and my hubby doesn't seem to care, it's going to take a little longer.  He has been better at the potty -by that I mean he hasn't had an accident all week in the house.  :)

Thanks for looking.
