Sadly my online time is still limited. Although I do enjoy reading all blogs on my bloglist, I mainly do that from my phone. But I plan to somehow find some more time to sit at the computer and leave some comments on the gorgeous work I drool daily over. :)

Oh Gaby I feel for you with your sick puppy and hope puppy feels better soon:)
Your stitching is fabulous, the winter scene is spectacular and Fredirick is so colourful:))
I meant Frederika of course:)
I hope the little dog will recover soon. So sad to see pets being ill.
Frederika is beautiful.
You sure have been productive with your stitching. Lovely finishes!
I hope your little dog gets better soon.
Gabi so happy to see you back, you did get a lot of stitching done in just under 8 weeks, your blog heading photo was the first thing I saw, obviously, and it is beautiful. Frederika is stunning, all your stiching is. Hope Ashley continues to improve, will be thinking of her, just so glad I don't have to worry about ticks, flea's are hard enough. Again look forward to seeing you round more.

Oh your poor puppy. :( I hope the poor thing recovers soon. I love all your stitching! The exchanges are wonderful, and Frederika is gorgeous!
You have done some gorgeous stitching Gabi! I love everything. I was so sorry to read about your puppy. I hope she continues to recover.
Hi Gaby, ik ben blij je weer te zien in blogland! Wat een mooie borduurwerken heb je weer gemaakt, echt prachtig!
Ik hoop dat Ashley gauw beter wordt!
Fijne dag en hoop tot spoedig!
Lieve groetjes, Evelyne
Aww...such a sad photo of you pup, Gabi--I'm sure you wish you could do more for her than make her comfortable. Hopefully, she'll be up and running around with her sister very soon.
Lovely exchange pieces by both you and Marie and I just adore that new header piece you've stitched--what a perfect winter scene.
Do hope things calm down for you very soon and you get more time for yourself...
Dear Gabi,
I am sorry to hear that you have been having such a difficult time. I am sorry for the loss of your Mom and now having to take care of your sick baby. I have been thinking about you.
Your stitching is beautiful.
Hugs
Chris
Oh Gabi, poor poor Frederika, my prayers and thoughts are with her for a full recovery...and many hugs being sent to her Mama and sister :)Paralysis ticks sounds so frightening!
Your finishes are gorgeous, as well as your exchange gift.
Please keep your friends posted on Frederika's status...we all care and are here for you all :)
Hugs
Ma
Gorgeous gifts sent and received. Lovely finishes. Hope your puppy continues to improve.
You've been a busy lady!! You've finished some gorgeous things! How did you cut the form for the Jingle?? So scarey about Ashley! I had never heard of ticks that could be so deadly. It must be an Australian thing?? I hope she continues to improve and starts to feel back to her own self! I haven't posted a blog entry for 5 weeks, but if you have time stop over to my Multiply site and check out the 6 ornies I stitched and finally finished!!!http://ndmurdock.multiply.com/photos/album/171/2011_finishes
Gabi --

I'm so sorry your sweet dog is so sick. The ornaments are beautiful as is your Frederika.
Oh poor thing! I hope your dog recovers soon!
Wow you have been busy stitching - lovely update.
Sorry to hear that your puppy is poorly - hope things improve soon.
Oh Gaby - good to see you back - if even for a little bit. So many lovely things you have been stitching and getting. Love the jingle ornie. The vacation piece is gorgeous as is Frederick. Awww your poor dog! We have been thinking of getting a Cavalier King Charles but we are only thinking about it - no decisions have been made yet. I never knew ticks could do so much harm!! x
oh dear..i hope the sweet dog feel better soon..(hugs)
i love all your stitching so much..great exchange gifts..both sent and received..
love for you xx
Glad to see that you are back and sorry to hear about your lovely little dog. Ticks are horrible things. I had one on me for a few days and didn't know I had it years ago.
All your stitching looks wonderful and I also love your Winter scene. Lovely. - Sandra.
It's good to see you posting again, and all of your stitching is just lovely. I'm so sorry for your pup - I hope she'll soon be better.
What a range of wonderful stitching!!! You have been very busy!!!
I'm so sorry about your puppy and hope she'll recover soon.....
How pretty they are. Sorry to hear about your families loss. Have a blessed christmas.
What a scare! Poor Ashley! I hope she makes a full recovery. It's very nice to see you posting. Frederika is gorgeous!
Oh, your poor pup! I do hope things are getting better. How scary!
Lovely exchanges!
Poor Ashley, hope she feels better soon!
Your stitching is gorgeous, especially Scenic Farms! Looking forward to your start on Frederik.
Lovely exchanges!
Hugs,
I hope that Ashley recovers soon. I love the ornaments.
I hope your mum is doing well in this hard time for her.
I wish your dog recovers completely - I have 2 and know how it feels, as if they were our children.
Beautiful finishes.
WOW!! You have some beautiful finishes...congrats. I love the ornie you recieved. It looks so small and delicate.
Sorry to hear about the sick puppy. I hope he recovers well. Our furbabies are as close to our hearts as our people babies. I know what you must be going through.
Is that a King Charles Spaniel? My BFF has one and she is a handful.
Such sad news about your little dog. Hoping she recovers soon.
So many beautiful finishes to look at! I love Scenic Farm. :)
So sorry to her about your puppy :( Poor guy.
Your finishes look great!
Oh, your poor pup. I hope she feels better soon. Good to see a post from you. What nice finishes and the exchange ornaments are lovely.
Lovely stitching photos, it's nice to see you back. I do hope your lovely little dog gets better soon, it's so upsetting when a pet is unwell.
Awww, poor pup! I hope she recovers soon. It must be very upsetting for you to see her like this.
Your stitching is all so beautiful. Scenic Farm is a really lovely piece and I've always loved Frederika.
Beautiful exchanges Gabi! Frederika is gorgeous too!
So sad to hear about your darling puppy. So hard to see them ill. Sending love and hugs to you and them.
Lovely finishes. I feel bad for your pup and never knew that some ticks could do that. She's still lucky to have such caring and responsible owners. Hope she recovers soon.
Awww, poor little Ashley!! I hope she feels better soon.
Your stitching is beautiful! Congrats on the finishes.
Wow, Gabi, you were doing some awesome stitching. I love Frederika. she is still in my stash but I have the intention to start her or her man next year. And I particularly love the farm scene, oh my, such a beautiful design.
I hope your dog will have recovered soon.
Beautiful stitching Gaby. I especially love the farm scene. How horrible for your pup; hopefully he makes a full recovery and feels better soon. Now you get to find new, interesting stitching projects to enjoy. Happy Stitching!
WOW, OH, WOW have you ever been busy stitching! All your projects are beautifully done :o)
I'm SO sorry to hear about your puppy Gabi :o( I do hope she recovers quickly. ((((HUGS))))
I'm just catching up, but you've been on my mind (wondering how you're doing). So glad you're home. My God, those sound like awful ticks! My son was hospitalized a few years ago with a tick-borne illness; they (the ticks) can just be dreadful. Hoping you ALL do well.
I do hope your puppy gets better soon and makes a full recovery.
Both ornaments are gorgeous and I love Frederika! Gorgeous colours.
Love the winter scene.
Gosh, what a pretty post! I love the ornaments, and I must say that I never realized Frederika's inner border is a different color from the outer! It looks really subtle and lovely. I have had these charts in my stash for a while now; maybe I should treat myself to a little kitting up on one of them for christmas! :D
Also, sorry to hear of your pups' health problems; how scary! I am glad to hear you were able to get them care from a good vet.
HI Gabi - your ornaments are lovely, and sorry to hear about the ticks. I didn't even know such things existed. Hope you have a lovely Christmas, and you get a bit more time soon.
