The beginning of my month was spent in Alaska with my family welcoming our first Grand baby into the world.
I call him Prince Declan
The beginning of the month also welcomed a cold that was relentless and I didn't feel like stitching much even on the airplane the trip home was about 30 hours and then we had to drive 3 hours. The trip home was hectic and the first few days home were laid up in bed.. YUCK
I did pick back up my Candy Cane Santa Stocking from Dimension Gold Collection. I had a goal in mind and that was to finish his face and I did that and a bit of back stitching too.. I can't wait to see more details come out when I return to this. Great Progress for a week!
The debut for the month seemed to be Trick or Treat from Heaven and Earth Design. A page finish just a day ago made this a huge treat for me. I have lofty goals for this piece and I'm onto a great start. Page three is complete and I felt elated to get it done. For some reason when I have a page almost finished I get the dread of it will never get done. I did get a page finish and some extra for February but for now here she is when I started and finished for February.
Question of the Month: What do you listen to while stitching?
I love this question because I do many things. Sometimes watching TV with my husband because anytime spent together is good. When I am home alone while stitching I listen to some floss tube or I should say catch up on some floss tube. I seriously have an issue because when I find a person I really like I tend to watch ALL of them and some of them have lets just say 200+ I feel like I'll never catch up. I also listen to books from the library I really enjoy that. I've also gotten into podcast because they are fun to enjoy. Some stitching ones and of course if its about Bigfoot I have to hear whats happening. What should I read next is another one of my favorite Podcasts that really help me find new authors.
Can't wait to see whats up next month with my stitching. I don't have a rotation as of yet because I've not been able to sit down long enough to go through and see what I want to get done. I do have Donner on my radar as I've gotten all of the rest of the threads to finish so I just might have to do that and get more credit for my Stitch from Stash.
Have a wonderful Stitchy time everyone. Until next time
Congratulations, your grand baby is adorable. Great progress on the Santa and the page finish on Trick or Treat is wonderfully atmospheric. I might do that one as a diamond painting.
ReplyDeleteIs it a bad thing I totally geeked out today after reading your comment. Happen to be one of my favorite Floss Tube people. I can't wait to see a diamond painting for the Trick or Treat. I've not gotten into them just yet but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. Thanks for the comment it's always so encouraging.
