Hi Blogger Friends. Its time to post our YOTA (year of the acronym). It is being hosted by Pull the Other Thread and you can read about it HERE.
Finish #12
The Library
Little House Needleworks
14ct Beige Aida
Started 2-18-10
Finished 5-31-13
I am so excited. My next YOTA project is Bothy Threads cut-thru North Pole House. This was started 2-4-12 and never touched again. If its as much fun as the Stable I may not stitch on anything else.
I have to tell you another story. I was sitting out front last night about 8:15. Dead silence. No birds chirping, no kids playing, nothing. I hear clop, clop, clop. I'm just staring across the street at my neighbors yard. Here comes a huge doe - walks across the grass - across the walkway - onto the grass and squats and starts doing her thing. Two more deer walk up behind her and stop. I haven't moved or made a sound and she snaps her head to the left and just stares at me. She was in that position for about 2 - 3 minutes. She finishes and they walk down the driveway and hop the fence into the field and off they go. Now I tell you, I have lived up here for 43 years and have seen my fair share of deer. BUT, this is the first time I have seen one squatting.
Thanks for looking. Linda

Kind of glad you matured before the age of film everything you see with your phone. Because I've got enough of a visual, thanks! ;) Nice finish. Love the sentiment.
