Winter Samp SAL Stamp 1- Snow Friends


Cock- a - doodle Doo!   Up and Adam! 

Good morning, y'all. Are you feeling chipper this morning? I sure hope so. πŸ€— It is a beautiful day so why not enjoy every minute of it. 

First, I want to thank everyone for all of the sweet compliments so far on my Winter SAL. But Ooops I made a Boo Boo in the header. I will list it below . If you see any boo boos as we stitch, please let me know. I was working feverishly to complete the charts before we left so I may have made a boo boo or two.  I truly appreciate it if you let me know , Sweeties. πŸ€—

HEADER- OOOPS- CORRECTION-   Silly me😌.  I forgot to chart the snow on top of the letters in the header in the last post. Please forgive me. I will correct the charts when I return from my camping trip. But  if you look at my photo, I just sprinkled white stitches on top of the letters. 


Mr. Pinker and I are having a super time so far, but you know if something is going to go wrong it happens when you are away from home.

 Wah! Wah! 😒😒😒 Uggh my computer went down!😩😭πŸ–₯ Actually,  some of the keys are not typing when using the keyboard.  And it all happened just as we added Starlink so I could have internet access. I am hoping to buy a bottle of compressed air duster cleaner and maybe that will solve the problem.   Oh bother!  Soooo, I have been getting on Mr. Pinker's computer at night .πŸ’» Unfortunately, I have not been able to respond to comments nor to emails.

 And to my blogging friends, I am visiting you but for some reason  my comments or messages are not going through when using hubby's computer. Please forgive me (Remember, I am plumb tech dumb so I am sure I am doing something wrong😏).

  There are so many beginning of the year projects going on in blogland.  And  some of you are working on UFOs and WIPS . It sure is exciting to see the projects so many of you are enjoying these first few days of the month! 

I hope to share so of my UFOs and WIPS that are am working in the coming days. 

Today I am sharing the 1st Winter Stamp which is called "Snow Friends." 

A winter stitch is not complete unless  it has a cardinal in it. And this little fella has made quick friends with  Mr. Chill the Snowman. 

This stamp was actually inspired by a doodle that I shared last year during the Mr. Snow SAL called Block 2 Winter Friends There were 12 blocks in the Mr. Snow SAL so if you are interested in them click on the colored link for information.
