My Sunday

I updated my Wishlist. Now when you click on the tab up there that says Wishlist, it will take you to my personal save-up-list. Of course, every time I think I’m finished I think of five other thing to put on [...]

Striking, Finishing, and a Strange Box

Posted in Doctor, Doctor Stuff, Finish, Hinzeit, Memories, Pesky Real Life, Stitching at 8:07pm

So here’s that update I’ve been promising. Things at work have been somewhat more tense the last week. I think the reason is that all over the country, nurses are going on strike. Here in Tinytown things will start to get funny on Monday.
Nurses here study for four years. They’re generally very well educated and [...]

Working and Stitching…

Posted in Doctor, Hinzeit, Stitching, WiP at 9:48pm

… is what I have been up to. I will try to write a longer update tomorrow.
I ordered some patterns for my kitchen lately, after I decided to have a coffee-chocolate-theme. (What else! LOL) Then I saw that they had the Hinzeit Doctor-block for sale, and since I adore anything with charms and had been [...]

Enabling

Posted in Doctor Stuff, Pesky Real Life, Stitching at 9:58pm

Bouncy Haired Girl was visiting this weekend, and guess what? I managed to get her kitted up for two little projects out of Cross Stitch Crazy and she started stitching! *insert evil laugh* Sooner or later I’m gonna get you.
I had a nice conversation with a colleague today. She’s German too, but I don’t know [...]

Sunday Stitching

Posted in Quaker Sampler, Stitching, WiP at 10:38pm

Today I did a bit more on a project I’m working on for a swap bot exchange.
It’s a Quaker Sampler that was published in Gift of Stitching. It’s done on hand-dyed fabric from Polstitches, with Dragon Floss and Carrie’s Creations. 28c linen, one over one (yes, I think I’m officially insane.)
The exchange is spring themed, [...]

Dragon Luck - now with eyes

Posted in Dragon Luck, HAED, Stitching, WiP at 1:29am

Yay, I got another row on Dragon Luck done! This one was all exciting, because the second eye is done now Now there’ll be endless rows of crazily riveting dark green and blue background, hehe.
I think I will start something bright and colourful, since Royalty and Super Secret Project are also only black and [...]

Look, it’s a biscornu! or - Eva Shall Have Her Prettiful Basket

Posted in Biscornu, Finish, Heart Beaded Biscornu, Polstitches, Stitching at 10:40pm

Okay, so all week I have been raving at people, “Guess what! I’m so excited, I’m making my first biscornu!” Just to have them look at me in this weary, oh-she’s-finally-gone-round-the-bend-now look.
But really, I was all excited because I have never done anything but cards or pictures. Why? Because I’m scared of all finishes. I can’t [...]

*yawns*

Posted in Biscornu, Heart Beaded Biscornu, Stitching, WiP at 3:28am

Why am I up at 4:30 in the morning?
Because I’m stitching my first biscornu and thought, oh, this is quite small, surely it can’t take all that long.
I shall go to sleep now and sew it tomorrow. And spam you with pretty biscornu pics.

Posted in Pesky Real Life, Stitching at 1:58pm

So, Nancy and Trolly thought I had to update.
*updates*
Hehe. Anyway, work has been a bit insane as always, and I haven’t been stitching as much as I would have liked. I will try to post some more pics - for some reason, my new computer doesn’t like my mobile, but I got a digital camera [...]
