I really did mean to write yesterday. The plan was to write a blog entry before bedtime. Then, about 9:30, my son came out of his room, all pathetic and needing his mom because he wasn't feeling well.
Priorities.
Okay, so let's see ...
Day 11 - decor
I am not much for decorating for the holidays.
However, I do have a few things out.
I have my tree bunting that I put out every year. This year I added my cross stitch ornaments. Those aren't permanent on there.
Cardinal ornaments from my sisters-in-law.
An adorable porky ornament made by one of my sisters-in-law.
Day 12 - peppermint
I admit, I was stumped by this one for a moment. I've been drinking Aldi peppermint creamer in my coffee.
In other news ...
The other day I pulled out a cross stitch project that I put in hibernation.
You may recognize Edna.
Project Name: Edna goes to brunch
Started: early July 2022
Finished:
Designer/Source: Lindy Stitches
Fabric: 32 count Mint Splash Lugana by Zweigart
Floss: I'm using the called-for colors in DMC
Stitch count: 133 x 96s
Size: 8.3" x 6"
Needle Size: size 28
Evenweave kicks my butt! I'm counting the the fabric holes constantly. She will be beautiful when she's done.
I picked up a small fold away table to put my Hope stand on when I'm stitching. I'm still trying to figure out the best set up, including a good light and a spot where I can place the chart.
