I am continuing with my 2011 i-Challenge picking up on the Williamsburg pinkeep. Kind of an appropriate stitch for this holiday weekend. It may not be red, white and blue but it is a kit I picked up in Williamsburg and what could be more American than Williamsburg? I am resisting the urge to start something new.....I have a couple of new patterns that I really want to get my hands on but I am being firm. I have two upcoming classes that are my driving force in keeping the resolve to not start anything new. Afterall, two classes does mean two new projects. Yes, I admit, diagnosis - Crafters ADD.
This is the first half of the pinkeep - stitched up fast |
My progress this morning on side two |
With everyone away and me home alone, I was been able to sneak in more minutes here and there of stitching time. I work in the yard a couple of hours - wash up and take a stitching break for a half hour and then back to the yard work. I convince myself that I am pacing myself so as to not become overwhelmed by the heat and humidity. Oh we crafters do have a way with justifying our time spent and money spent on stash. Feels like a perfect life to me.
A perfect life indeed! Your progress is amazing, it is just beautiful...and your stitching, Robin is always so perfect. Gorgeous!
