Good morning, y'all. Are you feeling chipper this morning? I sure hope so. π€ 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. π€
HEADER- OOOPS- CORRECTION- Silly meπ. 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! π’π’π’ Uggh my computer went down!π©ππ₯ 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 .π» 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 wrongπ).
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.

HINT ABOUT STAMP 2
Can you guess what will be in Stamp 2?
The snow is falling to the ground. Nary does it make a sound. It's time to grab a spoon and bowl. To gather up the winter snow.
A sweet treat- a winter's dream
Soon we will have enjoy a bowl of _____.
I wish you a wonderful day and thank you for dropping by to see my 1st stamp .
As Always,
Happy Stitching and Quilting, y'all
