Rhymes with slacker

Okay, so its been a busy week.

Three days in Wellington with the girlygirl, and lots of car time. Much cross stitch was accomplished.

News of the week - my purple biscornu won the Stitching Pirates 5 colours or less competition on deviant Art. I am doing some serious happy dancing on the inside.

Last week I finally finished the August quiltlet. September's theme is Dreams and Aspirations *whisper*whichkindofmakesmegag*/whisper*.



Also, finished another gifty thing:


And CTC20 - Fortitude


And CTC21 - Vacation


Details of all of these, as always, on my deviant art site

More pics to come sometime in the next week, or whenever.

Website update will be needed sometime soon too, but that's a wee way down the priorities list right nao.

Catch you on the rebound :)

Spring iz sprung

Okay, so. The less said about August the better. Goals for this month: get through September.

I'm working on a couple little things, but honestly, I'm not expecting to achieve a lot of anything but work.

There will be some CTC updates, and some more gifty things finished. No Magda goals. No ornament goals. Which isn't to say none of those things will get done, I'm just realistic enough to know I'm running things pretty tight at the moment and it would be just dumb to set the bar too high this month.

Or next month for that matter.

CTC19 - Gray



Just what it says. Finally, a ctc update.

Not much of anything else, tho. Little website update yesterday. Yadda yadda.

Sass Jordan said it best

Okay, so I've been going hell for leather to finish a cross stitch that I'm really sick of now. Pics prolly next Sunday when its done.

No ornaments and no real inspiration for them neither, so I'm not forseeing them being done this month, but I've had the coolest idea for the August quiltlet.

Started another bracelet and that is looking good too, but I keep running out of headpins so I've just ordered a bunch online and they'll take a couple days to arrive.

Domestic front is messy. Very very messy. And muddy.
