WIPocalypse post – later than it should be…
I worked on Winter Carousel Horse from Teresa Wentzler this month. I was really hoping to finish it this month but I didn’t get as much stitching time as I hoped. The real estate market is really picking up with the improvement in employment in Utah, businesses moving in which means people need housing, and [...]

And the WIPocalypse moves on…
So I participated in Mirabilia March although I didn’t really find any bulletin boards to talk with others about Mirabilia pieces. It seems like Facebook is where everyone hangs out instead of the boards any more. Anyway the head of my Queen got part of a body this month. I also did some travelling and [...]

Already thinking about next year?
So I’ve been making good progress on some of my older large pieces and realizing that if I finish the easy pieces this year, I will be left with ten pieces started and six of those will be Teresa Wentzler’s designs. Since last year was the year of the 40 ct linen Carousel Horses where [...]

Craft and Art
This song haunts me and I keep coming back to it and relating it to my own crafts. I keep thinking of the lines “My boy builds coffins and I think it’s a shame That when each ones been made, he can’t see it again He crafts every one with love and with care Then [...]

Journey
ThatGameCompany just proved you don’t need to kill something to have fun playing a video game. I love the spirit of cooperation generated in Journey. My kids have reached the point where they log on to find other people to help. What a wonderful message to teach. I love the graphics, the images and the [...]

I’d forgotten how fun a Mirabilia could be…
I’m so glad it’s Mirabilia March. I’m really enjoying working on Autumn Queen and I found everything I needed for Spring Queen tonight… I’ve told myself that I need to have quite a bit more done on Autumn before I go buy scroll bars to put Spring on. But the Fairy’s don’t need bars and [...]

Thinking about new starts and why they don’t appeal…
So I’ve finished 2 medium/big projects lately and in the past that would be the reason to start something else. I have several projects which are kitted up and ready to be started. Sentinel which I bought when I went to CATS in Nashville, Mirabilia’s Spring Queen which I kitted up as a Christmas present [...]
