Sorry for the lack of exciting posts as of late. I haven't even been buying anything exciting (good job, actually!), to share. But I am really, truly stitching! One gift (Happy Birthday to Patry today!!--sorry my gift is late!!), is winging its way to Italy. I will share a photo of it soon. I was very pleased with how it turned out. I am working on the back of my eight corner pinchushion for my SBEBB exchange. It should go in the mail on Saturday morning. I was complaining earlier about it and was ready to switch to another design, but I am very happy I did not do that. I really love the way it has turned out. I am using a freebie design, and it is hard sometimes to visualize what it will actually look like finished. Now that the top is done, I am really happy I stuck with it. I must remember this in the future when I am ready to give up on a project. I think it is going to work well with this type of finishing!
I think that since I have been so good with exchanges, I will spend a little time this weekend on something of my own, and can finally share a progress photo. It will most likely be either the Merry Cox SAL design or the "Elegant Accessories" by Beardie Design. Maybe I will work on both! I am itching to stitch at home (haven't been able to during the work week evenings--blah!), but I will definitely find some time to squeeze it in this weekend. I feel like I am going into withdrawal--LOL.
Since I have no stitching to share, I will leave you with a photo of my cat trying to be a helpful little worker...
