Feeling yucky!

Been feeling pretty yucky the last few days, have a terrible runny nose and on and off headache. What with the weather, one day is bright and sunny so off for a long walk, the next day grey and windy still off for a short walk but i didn't go out now for a couple of days. Right now is dark and rainy!

Shall we move on to March? I am so ready for Spring to come!

This prompt me to stitched the above ornament! I've admired the fabrics Lisa had used for her Valentine's finishes so she send me a couple of piece along with the clover fabric. Aren't these lovely! It was really a wonderful surprise and just before Valentine's day. Thank you so much, Lisa.
I've finished this into a Mattress pincushion for the montly giveaway last year. This was a freebie then from the Sampler Girl site but i am afraid it's not available anymore.

Had completed a few scissor fobs lately but can only show a couple as the others were sent out and i prefer it to be a surprise. These two will be added for the prizes for one of the yahoo group.

Nah...hubby couldn't make it tomorrow as they are too far away at sea, so probably sometime after the weekend. He's nearly six weeks away then...Chris kept asking when he is coming home...Oh well, it is Spring Break here the coming week so we'll see maybe we will get out of the island and visit some friends on the mainland.

As always, i really appreciate your visits on my blog and THANKS so much for taking the time to leave me a comment. Wishing you all a wonderful and relaxing weekend!!

I love your finishes, Mylene! I tried to leave a comment a few days ago on your Valentine's finishes post and the computer kept timing out on me... slow broadband connection... but they are gorgeous as well. I really like the designs you have in the forefront of the photo.

I hope you are feeling better, and that your DH is home soon!

What fun finishes, they look wonderful. I really like the SAL that you're doing too, the snowman with the heart and the birds with the hearts are very cute. Hope you're feeling better soon. With the damp and snow and cold here there are a lot of colds and sinus infections going around right now too.
