I have been so busy lately that it seems when I finally get to sit about 10pm at night I haven't got very far on this but on my to-do list today is to finish this by midnight.
Well, vacuuming and cleaning the kitchen ----check
supper---leftovers----check
work, work, work, and drive , drive, drive----check
contacting folks who I need to mail on the swing to the Post Office----check
washing----partly check
stitching..........I think I can...I think I can....oh, my! I finally at 10pm have sat down.
Methinks I'm tired. Or tard as they say in the mountains. ;0
I found this hoop while I was cleaning out some things and decided to use it for this one. Well, hoop marks are not my favorite thing to press out when finished but I will say it gives quite a bit of tension while stitching.
so onward now to put some sails on this ship and finish the border. I got some extra sugar surge just a minute ago with some strawberry ice cream. YUMMM!
Can't wait to see this one finished.
ReplyDeleteI really like the project you're working on. Perfect for the season.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of ice cream ... I've been told that I HAVE to try the new lemon ice cream by Haagendaz - can't spell the stuff but I can scarf it down. LOL I like strawberry ice cream too - great stitchery, girlie!

Don't you hate it when life (and especially house cleaning!) gets in the way of stitching time?? hehe
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see this piece finished :)
A very sweet project Jennifer! Hope you get to spend some time with your stitching :)
ReplyDeleteReally like your current project.
ReplyDeleteWhat is housecleaning??? I haven't done that in months ~ LOL! Your stitching is beautiful. Can't wait to see how you finish it.
ReplyDeleteI haven't used one of those hoops in years because I hated the creases, but I suppose if you take it out each night it won't be so bad? I might have a few around here somewhere...
