 This is the beautiful table runner the Friday Stitchers made and surprised me with on Friday.  It is a reminder of all the lovely birds who come to the feeder we can see  as we are stitching. They took me completely by surprise.

 Am I not fortunate to have such wonderfuul and generous friends? More photos can be viewed on Fran's blog

 Next comes my meagre progress on Jardin Prive. I do not see a finish on this piece by Dec 31!

I am delighted however with this finished product. I only hope David likes it as much! My Christmas tree, which I put up yesterday is in the background. I feel much more in the Christmas spirit now!

 This is where I am with White Lilies on Red...my Mystic stitch project.

 And two pairs of socks finished...the green ones are a pair in spite  of the fact that they appear to be two different shades of green...all from the same ball of yarn!

 And these gems are the result of my first attempt a short rowing the heel!  I am not sure if I will pursue that method or stick with what I am used to.

Isn't this going to make a cute sock? It is fun to watch the pattern emerge.
