I've been meaning to do a bit of an update all weekend, but here it is Sunday night and the weekend is all but over and now I need to get things ready for work, so this will be a quickie! I've put in a few more stitches on my BOAF design though haven't used many new colors. I'm still not sure how I feel about it, and now I've discovered I counted wrong! I have one too many stitches in her dress lengthwise. I am putting this one aside for the moment in favor of something else that is working better for me.
I had also made a mistake in my "Rain, Rain" design by Prairie Schooler, but I frogged the incorrect color and went back and restitched the wrong letters, so now I am back on track. So she is coming along nicely and I think I'll try and concentrate on finishing this little design. I'm in need of some instant gratification, I think.
I'm not sure what the weather is like where you are, but it has Already turned hot where I am. Over 90 degrees today and it's still only May. This is August weather. I hate extreme temperatures and someday I dream of living somewhere where the temps are more moderate year round. In any case, since it is practically summer and already feels like it, maybe it is time to work on my little Just Nan whimzie design that I started, oh, how many years ago now? This might just be my instant gratification, though there are all those color changes! I even have the little frame for it.
And I'm still working away on my Mystery Sampler by Blackbird Designs, but there wasn't much new to share there. Maybe later this week? Once again I am finding it hard to fit in stitching time and even harder for blogging time (both writing here and leaving comments on other needlework blogs). I am, however, at least reading posts and feeling envious of everyone else's work as I keep things straight via Google Reader. If I can't stitch and blog, at least I can live vicariously through everyone else.
