hellloooo every one ... brrrrrr it has been very chilly and frosty here at the mouse house .. the sun has tried to come out but didn't do much to raise the temp soooo I stayed indoors to day :)
Bentley has got rather big headed over his fan club ... he even wanted his own blog ...lol he has kindly posed for some photos yesterday and today for his adoring fans and even went to sleep for me in my room long enough for me to stitch on today's final crazy .....
But I digress ..... yesterdays crazy needs to be squeaked about first sooooo have you got your cuppa's ready and you comfy ??? then I shall begin .....
I started the Bloom Sampler by Threadwork Primitives ... stitching it on 28 count lambswool with the recommended threads ... I loved this chart when it was about earlier on last year and I was lucky enough to win it, in a goody box from Terri so it was one of the first ones into my crazy list :)
I shall tell you this while you are still sitting down, so you don't fall off in shock and spill precious cuppa's over the screen but ....... I actually stitched on my Romantique Sampler to try and get it totally finished asap .... yup I worked on a UFO hehheheh .... so I shall show you a progress photo in a mo :)
Yesterday I decided in my infinite wisdom to sort out the corner cupboard with all my cleaning stuff in .. I had bought some small plastic baskets to put things in so that it would be easier to get stuff out for other peeps too :) and cooooo you know when you think, should I really have started this heheheheh ... it took me all last night and today to get it done with a inquisitive pooch trying to help me wipe the shelves down .... it is now all shiny and tidy ... for now ...lol
today dawned early as per and as I was trying to get my emails up to date I had a little helper wanting a cuddle ... luckily the camera was to hand to take the odd photo or two ...lol
I tried numerous of times to sit down and put the thread in the needle and start today's project but a small bundle of fun kept saying I'm here ...lol .... I finally managed about 2.30 this afternoon to stitch when I had brought his cushion and blankie into the craft room for him to have a snooze on ... my little froggy was gob smacked that was all I had managed, when I took the photo heheheheh ......... can you guess which chart it is ?????...lol

Yes, Mouse, your stitching is great...but I really came to visit Bentley! (only kidding, but thanks for an above average puppy fix today). His bed is perfect for him.

Congrats Mouse you did so well. Bentley is looking even more adorable. You have not taken enough photos yet, he hasn't learnt to close his eyes when he hears the camera start to click :@ Trust me my cats know, and I'm sure Meah rolls her eyes :@

Little cutie looks sleepy bless him.
Nice starts, you have done well.
Congratulations on all your starts. They are all beautiful and I will definitely enjoy watching your progress on them. Puppy paws are too cute.
YAY for you! I'm sure Froggy was just feeling bad that he didn't get to help you (un)stitch anything. :) I had to look up the Bloom Sampler to see which one it was. It's cute!!!! I'll watch for you to finish that one. :)
Give Bentley a snuzzle for me!
Tricia
Wow!! Bentley is growing fast and he is just adorable. Love the romantic sampler you are doing. That's one I wish I had signed up for.
Blessings
Oh the puppy is sooo cute. Please give that adorable one a cuddle for me.
Bentley should have his own blog! He is super cute. I love how he snoozes all the time, like he's burnt out from all the snoozing and love!!
Lovely starts for you! Can't guess the sampler though...I would need more!!
Now I need to go grab a cup of either tea or coffee so I can continue stitching Jane!
HUGS
Ps doesn't it feel wonderful to get things organized like the cleaning cupboard!?!
Two of my favorite things... stitching projects and a sweet puppy.
You've been busy!
Everything looks great and I love your "stitching buddy".
Oooo, you have been busy, especially with an adorable pooch to distract you!
Love all your stitching! You are really a busy little mouse.
You have an adorable helper too!
oh the joy of stitching with a new pooch. I'm kinda glad my ferret can go back in the cage when he gets to stealing my bags.
Great progress.
wow, what a lot of stitching you have done, they all look fabulous. And awwwwwww, Bentley is adorable!
Congrats for making it through the crazy-ness!
The puppy is so cute!
Congratulations on keeping up with the crazy 15 you did a good job. Bentley has your heart wrapped around his little paw and mine too.
Congratulations on finishing the crazy challenge, you've made a great start on Bloom and it's nice to see Romantique making an appearance again
Grats on the final crazy starts Mouse. I'm trying to catch up on emails too, and keep caught up on blogs!! Not doing so hot, but I have hopes. Your pooch looks like an oasis of contentment. He's adorable. Hope you're having a great morning this morning!!
Love your puppy, Bentley is so cute!
Bisxxx
Bentley looks as if he has settled in well. When I tidy up my sewing room I can never find anything afterwards.
Your Puppy is adorable and can see why you might not have so much time for stitching.I read through you earlier blogs I had some how missed.
Lots of lovely starts.
You have been busy, and with an adorable puppy in the house - I don't know how you got any stitching done - when Indy was a puppy, it was almost impossible to stitch!
Well done starting all of the challenge pieces. Exciting times ahead watching them develop.
Great new starts and ohhh so cute puppy!!
Yay! Your Romantic Sampler is lovely! And all your Crazies are wonderful! Can't t wait to see more! Master Bentley is so darn cute, I don't know how you manage to get any stitching done! lol! Thanks for sharing all your progress, and pics of the sweetie!
Melissa J.
Oh goody for you doing some work on your Romantique! And a start is a start - now the work really starts :) Bentley is as adorable as always :)

Bentley is just adorable! I've never been much for pets since I didn't have any growing up but I have bonded in the past few weeks with my daughter's mini Yorkie.
Your pup is just TOO adorable!! Lovely progress on the stitching--everything looks great!
Your puppy is gorgeous!!! Snuggle, snuggle. Anyway, I digress. Your stitching is beautiful and I really love your blog :)
You go girl! Your WIP's are great!
WE (dd and I) LOVE your puppy :) :)
