Shuttle Night Launch

Tonight was quite possibly the last night launch of the Space Shuttle. My Hubby, Son and myself along with neighbors all stood outside and watched the Shuttle go up. It was a beautiful launch with the bright orange tail lighting up the sky. We had some clouds but you could still see the fuel tank separate. I can remember when the first shuttle went up. It's kind of sad to think that this is all coming to an end. My next door neighbor works on the program at the Cape. He's just hoping that he can retire before his job is eliminated.

I've signed up for the HOE Lizzie Kate Exchange and have been busy looking through my patterns. I think I've found one and even have an idea on how I'll finish it. Sometimes just choosing a design is tough. I have gathered my fabric and fibers and will try to start stitching this next week. I still have to finish stitching a needlepoint ornament for a model. The finisher is chomping at the bit to get it so it will be ready for the designer to show at market.I could have had it stitched a week ago except for the fact that when you have to rip and re-stitch some areas more than once it seems to take longer. Go figure!
