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...
I'm having a really bad day. I woke up to an e-mail about a purchase from my paypal account that I didn't make (I was sleeping how could I?) I somehow got a mosquito bite on the palm of my right hand. I then hit traffic going to my dance lesson and was almost late. And now, I realize I forgot some stitches in my sparkly purple so I need to order some. It's on the upper right of the wing, I missed it for whatever reason. I've included a close up of the dew drops. Given the nature of my day, I'm stopping work on this for a while and moving to something else.
Congratulations on the Happy Dance for this design. It's a real favourite of mine but I wouldn't be able to decide which way to hang it!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful finish. Congrats!
