As most of you have already heard, Nicola is celebrating a for her special year with making it a Scarlet Letter year. What a fantastic project. Like lots of my fellow stitchers I couldn't resist and join the fun too.
And seen that I started with several friends Susan Singleton, it fits the bill quite well. Susan is just lovely, although I made some changes to her, by adding a pink for example. She is such a colorful girl - a pleasure to spend the evening hours with :)
The fellow stitchers for Susan are: Terri, Deb, Sandra, Marsha, Margaret Suzanne and Evelyne

I'm busy with several Christmas pieces. Having a bit trouble to keep my concentration on one thing at the moment. Hopefully I will have to show more soon. :)
I want also to thank everybody who send me good wishes for our little dog Ashley. Sadly she lost her fight last month. She was happy until the last 2 days of her life. Which is a comforting thought.
Hopefully everybody has a great week and is good, so that Santa will bring a lot. I heard last week a song for the very first time, and can't get it out of my head anymore:
So you better be good. I'm giving it a try, hoping nobody snitched on me :)

Dear Gabi,
I am so sorry to hear your news about Ashley. Our fur babies are so precious to us. We lost our Millie three years ago and I still miss her so much.
I am so pleased that you are stitching with me this forthcoming year and I look forward to getting to know you.

You like that song hey? I used to sing that to our children when they were especially trying while they were very, very young.

Gabi, I'm so so sorry about Ashley. I know your heart is aching for her. Your Susan is looking great! I need to get back to her myself. Love your Emma too.
Sending hugs for the loss of your sweet Ashley--I'm sure there is a huge hole in your heart right now... I hope your beautiful stitching offers at least some comfort.
I'm glad to finally see someone post Susan Singleton. I haven't had time to make a post on my progress on her, but I need to change out a color or two. You will have to send me your changes. She's looking wonderful!

So sorry to read of your loss. It never ceases to amaze me how much they area a part of our lives. Sending hugs...
Your Emma and Susan look fabulous. I'm so jealous that you've completed all the over one bits on Emma. I still have one of the A&E to stitch and all the satin stitch in the border. I'm not sure I'll get Emma finished by the end of the year.
I'm so sorry to hear the news of Ashley. (((Gabi)))

Hi Gabi, Susan and Emma look lovely. You are way ahead of me on Susan. I'm only up to the tree. Had issues with some of the colours. Wanted to get more done on Maria but have also been doing some Christmas stitching.
Sorry to hear about your little dog. It is always sad when we lose such special little friends. - Sandra.

So sorry to hear about your Ashley.

Oh, ik wist niet dat ze haar strijd verloren had! Wat zal het een leegte geven.
Je Susan is mooi en ik hoop dat de kleuren, je het sombere gevoel door het verlies van Ashley wat wegnemen.
Emma vind ik ook prachtig worden, mooie sampler ook.
Lieve groetjes, Evelyne
Two great samplers there. I love the bright colours in the first and the lovely seasonal feel to the second. She's very popular on the blog!
So sorry for your loss too.
Oh Gabi, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. My heart goes out to you. It's so hard loosing a furbaby :(
Beautiful progress on your samplers. Sarah Singleton is really bright and cheery and Emma Miles has been really growing on me to the point I think I may get this one!
Take care,
Anne
I love your Emma Miles, its beautiful. I need to look for it at Scarlet Letter.
