~ Charting Cross Stitch and Chicken Socks ~

Hello Friends and Folk ~
and a very Happy Monday to us all...
the sun is shining, the temps are a bit cooler 
~ but it is another fine day in confinement at the farm!

while I have been looking through older charts in my software program, 
I have also been charting some new works too ~

This is called
"Garden Motto Sampler"


I have pulled my threads of choice and chose my linen and
will visit my little stitching chair here in my sewing room in the farmhouse...
 

 my linen is Weeks Dye Works 'Cornsilk' in 35 count.
 


and my threads are all DMC ~
in garden-y hues...
 


I have some chores to do yet, 
then will head here, one of my quiet happy places!

I'll put a movie on and enjoy some afternoon stitching ~
 

While in town last week, for our once a week-to-every-ten-days outing,
we visited Tractor Supply to get feed for our farm-friends...
I saw these Chicken Socks and they HAD to come home with me!
lol
 

 Wishing you all peace & quiet
mental and physical wellness
and abundant creativity my sweet friends...

Blessings from the Farm
 ~ Lori

Love those chicken socks! Maybe they'll bring back my stitching mojo. Feeling a bit of "Isolation Depression" lately

What cross stitch program are you using? I am looking for one for my designs. I can't wait to see your new design. The chicken socks make me smile. That was a great find. :)
