I Like Thursdays ~ Post # 13 ~ A New Roof Over the Scrapatch


I like sitting outside stitching in the early morning sun.

I like that the work crew showed up today and the sun is shining
and the roof over my happy place is getting fixed.
The Scrapatch really needed a new roof.

  2. A new roof is good - drama with the roofers, not so much! Sounds like it all worked out, though. That flag cross stitch is lovely, and working on it outdoors really sounds wonderful! I'm looking forward to getting that kind of weather back!

  4. What a lovely spot to sit outside and cross stitch! Work crews can be a pain but sounds like it all turned out okay. It's great to get a new roof and not have to worry about it anymore!
