I’ve been experimenting with ways to keep my excess material out of the way while I work on another section. When I was using a scroll frame, I just rolled it up, but using a hoop, I have been using clothespins. Not sure I like them, I get my thread caught on it while stitching,…

Progress
I’ve been making progress slowly, but surely
Sphere
Still working on the basics, but haven’t been doing much. Here is my first sphere, not too bad, hmmm? Except the other size didn’t quite work out the same. I need to figure out why they didn’t fit on both sides 🙁 Although, this could end up being a mace 🙂
Finished!!!
OK, I am finally finished with the first one. I’ve gotten all the pieces cut out for the next 2, and have the bottom half of the boxes made and am working on the lids. Lots of pictures of the final product, so it may take longer to load, sorry!! 🙁 That’s it!! Hope I…
New Project Started – Gingerbread Street
I need a break from the Counting Sets, so started this adorable Christmas Cross-Stitch. I love using frames, but they are too awkward and bulky for small living areas. I ordered a group of different sizes of hoops and am trying them out on this project. They won’t work for beading large projects, but should…
General
We’ve gotten some new people at work, and after Seaver and his servant, Dean, left me, no one else has left. My friend Bettina and her Bentley are planning to move to Italy!! Our old neighbors that moved away, but only 1/4 or 1/2 mile away are now moving to North Carolina. Justin, Kaile, Rocky…

Anniversary
Well, Rob and I have made it to 32 years. It has been filled with ups and downs, but we worked everything through…eventually. When we got married, I mean while walking down the aisle, I thought “I am going to spend the rest of my life with this man.” I was fine with that thought….
More Friends Leaving :(
My friend and co-worker, Cherie G, has left us to move to South Carolina. I am going to miss her so much! She has an amazing, uplifting personality. She always makes people feel better about themselves and any situation that may be going on. Customers were coming in all week to make sure to say…
The End of an Era
It is the end of an era at work. My favorite couple on the street have closed their business and are moving to New York. I went to see them today while they were packing up and didn’t want to leave. They always made being at work a lot more fun. Their store moved a…
