Life has been settling down nicely around here. It's still a bit crazy sometimes and I want to crawl in a hole and hide from my 3 going on 4 year old some days. Samuel is tolerating us. Lol. If I lived in this crazy house as a baby I'd be grumpy too.
There's still no knitting, crocheting, or spinning over here. Just stitching. Stitching. And....you guessed it, more stitching. My mom and I have been finding lots of cross-stitch and embroidery stuff at yard sales and the local flea market. Cloth by the yard, towels, bibs and kits. DMC floss. Charts and stretcher bars and not to mention the huge Ziploc full of embroidery and quilting needles. (I won't need any needles forever!) I'd show you but I'm in the middle of organizing it all. My mom just took some of the fabric and floss and the quilting needles and shoved the rest on me. Not that I don't like it and certainly I'll use it. Let me get through the first batch of stuff first mom...geez! I could open my own shop up soon! When I get an idea of what I have I'll take pictures. It's epic.
A little bit more progress has been made to the Happy Hens piece. The chickens are a lot of work and require patience and concentration. Short supply of that here. But regardless, there has been progress!
Maybe by the end of the week I'll have all 3 girls stitched and with their heads on!
Oh and next time I'll tell you about the yarn run my bestie and I made to a closing LYS. I'm sad to see Marge and her husband go. But, their retirement was well earned. Good luck to them!
I'm going to go enjoy that cuppa before the kiddos wake up an want their supper. The mister is included in that statement. heh....
