Dragons. Lots of dragons.

Trying to get back in the habit of stitching. I chose Dragon Writer from Charting Creations as my New Year's start. I've decided I'm not going to start a new cross-stitch until I have 2 done. I only have one more brown folder to store a new start in.


Also, this was my final finish of 2020. A dragon shawl to chase the year away.


And Clyde. He was very entertaining New Year's Eve. Even let me grab his head for scritches. The first photo is him after I finally stopped.






I've also been a bit remiss about the patterns and fabric I've added to my stash. I really should make a decision on pairing them together. I'll make that a project one weekend or something.

    That dragon shawl is epic! It would go so well with my dragon wrist warmers if you need a home for it! Send your beautiful black cat to deliver it LOL

      Thanks. I think I'm keeping it for a while. However I will make you one if you want. Even change up the colors if you want a different colorway. Clyde however will not be making the delivery. My parents freak out if they can't find him (he's usually sleeping somewhere and ignoring them)

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...

DWTS season 19: week 7

Tommy. It was muddy and he seemed to forget some of it. As usual. I notice they didn't mention the break in hold during the dance. Too high. Lea. It felt careful. It could've used more power, controlled power. It felt like she was walking through it. Not worth 9s. Bethany. I liked it and her dress. I think she missed a step during a side by side but got caught up. There were moments she could've filled instead of just pausing. I don't know if it was 10s definitely 9s. Antonio. Not a lot of actual Viennese Waltz. He didn't do much. I agree with the scores. Michael. Just, no. 5s are generous. Janel. A tad slow for a Viennese Waltz. But it was interesting. A little low. Alfonso. She danced around him a lot. I didn't see too much hip action. Technique needs work. I'll give him the scores based on performance. Sadie. The character didn't work with the dance. She was too loose. I'll give them the scores. Team dances Its...
