Just loving the look of your LHN ABC Sampler sampler! When the first chart in the series was released, I thought I'd get one or two and make ornaments, but I'm smitten as each new one is released and have started thinking of stitching them all together. Just shows how smart you are to have known that from the beginning.ReplyDelete
So glad to hear things are happier for you these days!
Enjoyed seeing the finishes you've done recently - it's sort of like being at the show and tell part of a guild meeting. :)
You are amazing! Love, love, love seeing all your work!ReplyDelete
I am so glad you are feeling more yourself . Your stitching is always a lovely treat for the eyes. So inspirational too!ReplyDelete
I definitely like "you for you"! If you never posted another, I would still like you just the same. Honestly, I have a background in (my post-secondary) the arts, so I already know how to do many finishing things and I can "pull myself up by my bootstraps" for the rest.ReplyDelete
My favorite part is watching (blog or video) you explain things. I love organization, and it's wonderful to see skilled people at work! I don't really know any other needleworkers in person, so it has a nice community feel.
You are getting some wonderful progress in on your personal projects. I am just reall looking forward to the quilt that PS will become. I can't quite "see" it, so I am really looking forward to a big wow and "oh, that's so amazing!!!" When I finally DO see it!
Love all your finishing...you do beautiful work!ReplyDelete
If I lived closer I think we'd be friends!
I am so glad you are feeling better. It is so hard for us humans to let go. I am collecting the materials for the Sampler House series. I plan to stitch it as one piece so I am anxious to see how you do the rest of the one you are working on. Your finishing is just beautiful. I always love to read your posts. They are so encouraging. You have a gift!ReplyDelete
Vonna, it is always wonderful to see a new blog post from you. I know I am not alone when I say you are inspiring, and motivating. What fabulous WIPs you have shared along with the items you have finished for your clients. I am glad you are back to feeling like Vonna. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!ReplyDelete
You appear to be busier than I am and I didn't think that was possible. Wow, your stitching is so pretty. I agree that if I do not have a craft in progress, then I am not being good to me. I love all of your finishes. I have used your tutorials to finish some of my own creations and I love looking at yours for inspiration. So glad that you posted an update.ReplyDelete
Oh I am gonna have to have one of those sweet little flag ladies in my pile of future projects. Yours is looking so sweet. All your projects always look so pretty. I have to say I love reading your blog and always look forward to it. I also love your podcasts of where you just show us what you have stitched and talk about stuff. Keep up the good work. Wishing you many blessings. :)ReplyDelete
An amazing amount of work you have done. All so beautiful.I'm amazed you have time to sleep at night Vonna:)ReplyDelete
Wow Vonna. So many goodies in this post! Enjoyed it very much. I'd be a little cautious about the beads too. Looks like a lot to look forward to in upcoming posts.ReplyDelete
So worth the wait...this post is wonderful. Beautiful WIPs you are stitching. I am also doing the Christ cross stitch. I saw it through the internet & knew I had to stitch it. Found at my local Hobby Lobby. How do you plan to finish it? Frame with glass? Thank you Vonna for all your blogs. It takes time to make such wonderful posts and sincerely, I have learned so much from your posts. Glad you are enjoying your stitching and new found joy in letting go. Cindy in northern IllinoisReplyDelete
I love your finishes! They all look great. I have - once in my stitching life - thrown away one piece of cross stitch. I guess it happens once in a very rare blue moon.ReplyDelete
As always you have a wonderful post!! You have a "gift" that you have been given and I love that you share it with all your "friends"!! Us stitchers stick together in thick & thin. You always rock it girl....continue to do so as we all love you just the way you are!!ReplyDelete
Yes, Vonna, we just like you for your tutorials! Not! You are personable and even if you never had a single tutorial, we would still sit in awe of your finishing skills and hang on every word you say on your Flosstube. So banish the thought! What a great lineup of finishes and WIPs. I really really love the Wish cube, it's just gorgeous!ReplyDelete
Of course I like you for you! Your tutorials are awesome, too. It's always great to catch up with all you are doing. Your personal projects are wonderful, and your finishing top notch. Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete
Gorgeous stitching and beautiful finishing..what a lovely post.I never tire of seeing both of the above.It is why finding your blog a long time ago now was a revalation...long may it last Vonna.I am happy that you are happy in your creativity.ReplyDelete
Lovely to see all those beautiful finishes! Wow! You have been busy.ReplyDelete
I've seen so many Flosstubers credit you with their creations! You are a skilled teacher. That said, if you only ever showed WIPs and your own finishes we'd all tune in. You're funny, you're honest. Love everything. You're a credit to your family and your faith.ReplyDelete
We certainly do love you Vonna! You are a ray of sunshine! xxReplyDelete
So pleased to read that life is better for you now and that you are enjoying it. Good progress on your WIPs. Love the finishes you have shown. Great attention to detail in your finishes.ReplyDelete
All your WIP's and all your finishes look fabulous! Such talent. I have one of those rolls too. It was purchased from Carolina Stitcher and given as a gift in an exchange. They work well for storing finished pieces, too. Looking forward to your Christmas posts.ReplyDelete
You are such an inspiration to all of us. Love reading your blog and seeing what you have done.ReplyDelete
You certainly have found a good way to use all that time you have freed up now that the lab is a thing of the past. I'm amazed at how much stitching you have done along with that. gorgeous collection of creative finishes.ReplyDelete
Nice idea for storing the WIPs. They definitely deserve The TLC.
Just keep being mindful of the over use injuries and ergomics. Listen to your body as they say in my Jazzercise classes!
EVERYTHING you show here is so beautiful! I often wish I could spend a week with you stitching and learning to finish things....and talking and laughing.ReplyDelete
Your WIPs are looking terrific! You have such a nice variety of projects in progress. And your finishes are gorgeous as usual. I really want to send you some items to finish, but I'm intimidated by what you may think of my stitching. I know, I know, it's my problem to conquer! haha Hopefully I'll be contacting you one of these days to use your magic on some of my stitching!ReplyDelete
On a serious note, I'm so proud of you for making a major change in your life and then settling in to see how God would work through that change. Your choice has definitely freed you to see His work in your life. Good for you!
I seldom comment on posts but today I just want to thank you for your openness, becoming vulnerable, all for the sake of God. You are a beautiful example for God.ReplyDelete
Thank you too for sharing your work which always inspires me.
Your stitching and finishes are wonderful Vonna 💜! It's so lovely to hear your happiness shine through your words after some trying times this year!ReplyDelete
We like you for you - I must say your videos always make me have a laugh or two. Your work is amazing and love to see how you finish your projects.ReplyDelete
Hello! Good to see another update from you, as I know you are so busy! Your posts are so 'friendly' that it at least makes ME feel as if we are friends sharing our favorite obsession! Love seeing the progress on your WIPs. And the new project roll is great... I haven't taken out the sewing machine in a while, but I do want to try machine quilting and making more sewing projects one of these days! As always, your finishing has been great! I cannot imagine doing 400 finishes! Yikes! It is good that you are aware of the stresses and strains that can have on your body. Don't need to be down for the count at any time! Thanks, as always, for sharing! Hugs!ReplyDelete
Oh my! Your finishing work is just stunning..and I love the project roll.. I purchased one who has a blog much like yours and I love it but I know how to sew and would love to know how to make it myself..just haven't been brave enough to make up my own pattern..so I will be looking forward to your tutorial. Beautiful work. Thanks so much for sharing.ReplyDelete
Love hearing from you and it is great when you are doing things you love.ReplyDelete
Love your stitching. I too like "you for you". You are one talented lady, Vonna. Your finishing of everyone's treasures is amazing. I am looking so forward to your Days of Christmas.ReplyDelete
Thank you for the many ways you generously bless the stitching community with your gifts, thoughtfulness, and humor! I always love seeing what you are stitching or finishing or your new ideas (like the project roll)! I so enjoy your flosstube episodes, too. Last night, I convinced my husband (!!) to watch and we so enjoyed your humor. He is "frightened" to know there is someone as enthusiastic about stitching as I am. LOL I know it might be strange to say but I feel like I know you and so enjoy what you share with the stitching community. I am praying for you as you continue to adjust to having one in college (I am doing this for the first time, too), leaving the out-of-home working world (but how GOOD that must feel!), and adjusting to a new phase of life. I hope you have a ball on your roadtrip, too! I may be going to California pretty soon myself as we are trying to convince my inlaws to move near us as they need help with things now. They are in CA so I am envisioning a cross-country trip to move them here. Think of all the needlework shops I could work into the itinerary!!! :) Thanks again for everything, Vonna! xox KristinaReplyDelete
Each one is prettier than the other! How you get it all done, I am amazed. Thanks for sharing, DeeReplyDelete
Your finishes are just exquisite! (As they always are!!) I really do love to see your stitching -- you always have such beautiful, fun projects going. I always look forward to a new blog post from you -- I love seeing what you've been up to. And your flosstube videos are the best! I feel like I'm getting to spend time with a friend.ReplyDelete
Enjoy your stitching!
Everything is just so beautiful sweetie. Been praying for you and I know you did have some rough times.ReplyDelete
LOve the WIP's! Love the finishes!ReplyDelete
Love your blog and YouTube channel Vonna! While the tutorials brought me to you and I thoroughly enjoy and appreciate them, I keep reading and watching because I enjoy knowing more about you, more about stitching, and enjoy hearing about all your kids activities and accomplishments. Even though we haven't met, I feel like I know you 😀ReplyDelete
I continue to be amazed by your beautiful stitching and your finishes. Thank you for sharing your work with us and for inspiring us!ReplyDelete
Blessings, Donna
Thanks for sharing your gorgeous stitching !! I'm with you......a day without stitching makes me grumpy too.ReplyDelete
It's fun to pull out an older WIP......it's like starting something new. And you know there was a reason you chose that design even it was awhile ago.
I admire you for stitching on black fabric. Difficult even with a bright light. It will be so beautiful when done.
Your beautiful finishes will be treasures for all your clients.
Happy Autumn !! Enjoy each and every day :)
I have definitely looked over your tutorials and certainly appreciate all the effort that goes into creating them BUT - I'm definitely here for the full on Vonna effect ! I would still love your blog and you and your stitching, finishing and faith and family even if you didn't have tutorials. Some gorgeous things finished! lucky stitchers.ReplyDelete
Happy Halloween! Mel
I think we all struggle to find our balance and equilibrium in life. It sounds as though you have now found yours. Just remember each and every day to take some time for yourself, prayer, a walk, meditation - something that renews and refreshes you. I so enjoy your stitching, your journey or faith, and your openness Vonna.ReplyDelete
Vonna, you have one of the best jobs - creating beautiful finishes from others' lovely pieces. I know what you mean about feeling grumpy if you don't stitch each day. Even just a few stitches makes me happy.ReplyDelete
Absolutely beautiful stitching and finishing! Sweet Treats is sooooo cute, and I'm in love with your project roll! It's so pretty :DReplyDelete
I'm so glad that things are working out for you and you are enjoying stitching for yourself again. I love seeing your WIPs and your finishing work. I need to send some things to you for finishing sometime!ReplyDelete
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Reading your posts and seeing all the beautiful things is like looking at pictures of puppies on Instagram: I get all melty with how lovely things are.ReplyDelete
Be a light: we shine in so many ways and reach spots we can't ever imagine and likely will never know, but be a light anyway. You're a good light my dear:)

Wireless company Meru has launched a new 802.11n access point device aimed at the distributed enterprise. The AP1000i has been designed to give what the company calls a Wireless-Like-Wire experience for its customers.
In particular, claimed Meru, the product should appeal to organisations such as retail outlets with large numbers of remote offices but small numbers of dedicated specialist IT staff. The AP100i includes the option of Service Assurance Manager which offers its customers better WAN availability and improved diagnostics. It works by creating virtual clients on existing access that act like a real, physical client and because of this Service Assurance Manager can actively track packets across the network.
Joe Epstein, Meru's senior director of technology said that there was a pressing need for wireless LANs to offer the same experience for users as wired networks did. "If wireless needs to grow, it needs to have the pervasive reliability of wired networks."
The AP1000i, has been designed to be simple to use and to be able to controlled centrally, while Service Assurance Manager would help guarantee consistent service. Epstein said that its strength was the consistent RF coverage that it delivers throughput an enterprise without any need for wireless experts to be on hand.
He pointed out that the days when organisations had dedicated wireless team are long gone and they were relying on IT staff who may not have the specific skills needed. "The staff don't have the expertise to deal with RF," he said, "They can learn the jargon but they can't manage the nuances so you have to allow the network to do as much as possible. For example, they won't know why you can be standing next to the AP and not get good coverage."
Epstein added that the AP1000i also offered historical diagnostic so "if the line got disconnected, we can go back and find what dropped the phone."

Rebate Trends for 2014
Rebate organizations have been busy updating their rebate and incentive programs for 2014. While not all of them operate on a calendar year, we can still see a lot of changes and trends in the industry. Right now, 71% of the country is covered by an active commercial lighting rebate. We have also noticed a few other trends.
Programs Getting New Funding
Last year, quite a few rebate programs, such as Consumers Energy in Michigan and SureBet Nevada, exceeded their budget, ending the programs earlier than planned. This year, they have new funding again and are accepting applications for 2014 projects. Click here to see a map with how lighting rebates have changed in the past 5 years.
More Prescriptive Rebates for LEDs
We've seen more organizations expanding their programs, now offering prescriptive rebates for a larger variety of solutions such as LED highbay fixtures, LED outdoor pole lights, TL fixture replacements, and even some LED T8 replacements. In 2014, LED rebates have continued to expand with 16% more prescriptive rebates than last year. The dollar amounts have remained relatively stable compared to last year, which is surprising given the falling prices of LEDs. See the average rebate amounts for LEDs.
T12 Rebates Continue to Decline
As expected, T12 to T8 rebates took a tumble this year compared to 2013. Because it is becoming harder to find replacement T12 lamps and ballasts, many rebate programs feel they don't need to offer incentives anymore for people to upgrade. Between this year and last year, the number of rebates available for T8 installations decreased by 18%. While the dollar amount of the rebate remains relatively stable from last year, many programs are requiring the use of high performance or reduced wattage T8 lamps. In fact, 60% of T8 rebates require CEE approved lamps and ballasts. Learn more about T12 to T8 rebates.

Also worth noting that the article doesn't address the benefits listed in a link he provides near the end, namely: - It helps keep the naming consistent because all action types are gathered in a single place. - Sometimes you want to see all existing actions before working on a new feature. It may be that the action you need was already added by somebody on the team, but you didn't know. - The list of action types that were added, removed, and changed in a Pull Request helps everyone on the team keep track of scope and implementation of new features. - If you make a typo when importing an action constant, you will get undefined. This is much easier to notice than a typo when you wonder why nothing happens when the action is dispatched.
