Actually… I’ve been home all week, but it’s just been kind of crazy around here…
The retreat was fabulous… magnificent… marvellous… tremendous… excellent… wonderful… superb… phenomenal… amazing… spectacular… awesome… brilliant…
Enough said – I’m sure that you get the idea!
The plan was to assemble my 2009 BAMCAL afghan while away… but I somehow managed to only pack [...]
I’m ready to go…
Well, my freeform piece seems to be taking on a life of it’s own…
Starting to fall a few days behind, but here are the latest additions:
some boosies:
some trinkets:
some fairy wings:
and a little star stitch:
so it now looks like this:
There’s no doubt about it…
This Week I Am A Dithering Mess
I can’t focus on my work
My mind is totally scattered
I’m forgetting simple everyday things

Have to say a HUGE thank you, for these goodies which arrived in the mail last week:
You might remember that I was expressing some concern in this post here, about how I might run out of scrap embroidery threads for my sunnies case…
Well, that’s where the oh-so-wonderful Bec comes in…
I think that Bec and I [...]
No words today… just progress photos
Remember that cushion I started working on a while back?
I loved the way it was knitting up, but man – it took forever to get through! I thought I was never going to get it finished…
Then I was so fed up with it, once I finally had it off the needles… I packed it away [...]
Only…
it’s not finished yet!

So – here is the way the bag looked last week. There wasn’t a lot to do – just embellish and line it.
I wanted to embellish first. Partly because [...]
