Still Waiting

I was cleaning up some e-mails when I happened upon a funny one I was saving from my mom, sent around this time last year (I know – learn to archive or something!)
I did what you told me…
I sent the email to 10 people like you said.
I’m still waiting for that miracle to happen ..

SBQ July 9, 2008: Chores? What Chores?

This SBQ is recycled, from 2005. I remember the question so clearly, since my answer remains the same:
“How do you balance your stitching time with your other obligations such as work, household chores, etc.?”

Maybe not what possessed me to start it, since my tastes really haven’t changed much over the years. But [...]

SBQ May 14: Definitions and Acronyms

This SBQ is a recycled one:
“For seasoned stitchers: Define a stitching term or acronym for new stitchers. For newbies: What stitching term or acronym would you like defined?”
I think by now most have already been defined. My favourite is “frogging” – to tear out one’s stitches (Rip-it, Rip-it!).

I suppose I should post…

Long time, no see, I know. Let’s just blame summer, shall we?
Let’s see, what has been happening?
Minuit is finished as far as stitching goes. Thanks to Renee, who RAKed me my final supplies, I was able to get started on the beading. Here she is without the beads:

*Sigh* Soooo pretty.
So the beading has started and [...]
