What has been going on this week?
I started stitching the heart background at the weekend. I thought I would have the whole of today to complete it. However, my mum, who this is for, has asked me to accompany her on a birthday trip out. As I don't know how long we will be out for, I decided it had to be done NOW. So, apart from three trips away from the sofa, I sat still, sewing like crazy from 3pm until midnight. When she pulls it out of the envelope, I'll squeeze the hearts that have vertical stitching to give it a 3D effect. I thought of the hearts as butterflies. I'm a little dizzy, cross eyed and dazed. Looking forward to closing my eyes very soon.
My cat, Taz got in the shot. She's scoping out a very noisy kitten under the sofa. No SYDNEY this week. Needed a small break from it. Instead, I've progressed a little more with Felicity the Lobster. I've already messed up (Ssssh! Don't tell anyone:)) The dark bluey-poiple you can see, isn't actually meant to be in any of those positions. Turns out that in artificial light, I'm a little colour blind. Stay tuned folks, to see if I actually have enough of the colour I should have been using. Who knows?!
That's enough from me. Go see some other desks. Stay crafty!
