While I am waiting for the next installation of The Colonial Gathering, I have been stitching on The Sampler House.  By the way, have you seen the sneak peek of the next project?  The Sampler House is a fun stitch--the big old house reminds me of the stone houses in Pennsylvania and I love the size and color of the alphabet.  Looking at the A, I think I need to add a few more stitches.  As this is a small design I hope to have it completed before the next club kit arrives.

Now, completely changing the subject, Spring officially arrives on Thursday.  I think I am hearing a collective sigh of relief to the cold temps and winter.  On a happy note, the daffodils arrived before the dandelions, I saw the first one in the grass today.  Am still looking for the return of the robins, they seem to be waiting to make sure Winter has retreated.
