Although I'm still working on Toccata Two, I asked for the newer Toccatas for Christmas. As you can see I was lucky enough to find them under the tree! I'm hoping having Three through Five on hand (and Three is all kitted up) will spur me on to get back to my work on number Two!
Here's where I left off. I'm working on the little motif under the tree. I'm not too fond of working with the gold thread, which I think is why I've not picked this one up in a while. As soon as I get past those little motifs I think things will go much faster.
A little side note--I've been trying to update things on my blog and I've started with my blogroll. Some of the links were dead or the blogs hadn't been updated in years. If I have inadvertantly deleted you from my blogroll, please let me know and I will add it back in! I finally dropped Bloglines and added all the blogs on my blogroll to my Google Reader account, which I check daily. Hopefully I'll stay more up to date on things. I really do want to be a little more timely in my posts (famous last words!). If you're curious where I've been all this time, I am an avid reader and am often busy over here, Some years I spend more of my free time on crafts, but lately I've been reading more. Oh, to have a few more hours in the day! Still, I very much miss being part of the stitching community and am sorry that I've been so absent. We'll see how things go in 2010.
