My peacock is coming along nicely. Not too much more.


I finally closed on my apartment! It's all mine.


Say hello to my new craft closet.

    congratulations on the new home. The peacock is looking great. No Onyx pictures this time. What does she think of the new place?

      She will not be coming with me. As much as we'll miss each other. She'll be happier staying with my parents. She likes to know someone is around and I'm gone too long during the day.

A bit of ADD

I seem to be a bit all over the place this week. Let me walk you through it. Sunday, I have declared this day to be for 'insanity'. I shall try and keep this up. So Monday, I picked up a new cross-stitch, Mystical Wizard. More on that later but here are the colors. Wednesday, I decided to work on one of my sewing projects. A 17.5" stuffed Christmas tree. I was going to make the 12" one but I had enough fabric if I ignored the included cutting diagram and got away with 1/8" less. But come Thursday, I was tired of my cross stitch. There's only so much I could take of stitching blue on blue, and mainly two colors of blue. Of course the upper left is the least interesting part color-wise of this piece. So I switched to The Accolade. I'll include the last photo I took of it (with my old phone) because I didn't get that many rows finished. But not bad for only two days.   And as today is Sunday, I worked on Insanity again. And...

A little steamier

The position anyway, especially with only the hint of legs. Hehe. I'm getting close to the end of one of my summer courses. Then I have that blasted 15 page paper to write. Topic is "Women in action/adventure". If anyone would like to fill out a survey I created to help me, please feel free.  This is the link to the survey. Other than that my life is pretty quiet. I did spend a day with insanity and got another 5 rows finished.

SFS2014 - November

First off, I'm calling exemption. I started off the month with a plan to use some money I received as a gift with the instructions "use it for something fun" and it quickly went beyond that. Oops. So here's where I am with the projects I worked on this month. I've managed to attach all my heptagons to the afghan and work a row of black around the whole thing. I also started making half circles on top. It's been so long I forget if I did the original one with a 4.00 or 4.25 hook. I'm using 4.25 this time around but think I may go down. I'm also using two strands so I don't know if it'll really make that much of a difference. We'll see when I pick it up next. I finished my second whirl lapghan. Frogged the outer part as I realized the pattern was written incorrectly and the corners were placed wrong. I finished two pages of Fantasy Triptych, minus special stitches, over ones, and beads.  I picked up Insanity again. A...
