gone fishing ...



We were at the cottage for a few days .... it's a lovely time of year there!  Fishing season is closed just now but there was lots to do.  We spent all day outdoors doing one thing or another and got together with friends for dinner one evening - they are both excellent cooks and served up pickerel they'd caught last fall and fries made from their own potatoes - yummy!.  These are some of the stitcheries that are hanging in the cottage.  The plastic canvas needlepoint WELCOME sign was made by our late daughter - she was very good at it.  The water was alive with ducks, loons, and Canada geese - very entertaining.

They are all lovely. The 'Outhouse' one would be perfect for my hubby!

I'm sure your days at your cottage are always special, Kate... You sure have a lot of pretty stitching there. We used to vacation in Canada every summer on a lake and I'll never forget the haunting calls of the loons!

Oh my goodness!!!! I made the exact same stitchery (Mom's Kitchen Open by Appt Only) for my mom years ago and it's still hanging in the kitchen! Sounds like you had a great time!
