Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride! - Unknown

Stitchy Stuff...

Finally I have finished my Christmas stitching and it is time to return to the regularly scheduled stitching program........ I have picked up and worked on my Blue Ribbon Design today and here is what was accomplished. I stitched a little this morning while waiting at the post office to send a package. Sadly, more people stood there and complained about having to wait for the place to open (we only had to wait about 15 minutes) instead of just taking a few minutes to themselves. Tonight was my Heirloom Stitcher's group meeting and it has been a long time since I was able to attend this meeting. I loved catching up with friends while putting needle and thread to fabric! I actually worked on 2 seperate areas of the design and tried to work colors by each piece of thread so I wouldn't be rethreading the needle every 5 minutes. Hence why I was working around different areas of the fabric....

I am planning on working very hard on my Blue Ribbon Design, Kind Fond Love and a few other items this winter. Hopefully I will be able to come up with a rotation that I can stick to and really make a lot of progress on each of them. Wish me luck!
