3/13/11 Sunday Update

Mar 13, ’11 2:02 PM for everyone

Well I only got to stitch two days this week, Saturday and Sunday.  Sunday I stitched until I had the back stitching done.  I have the devil’s worse time with the last two thread colors!  I am pulling my thread up from the back of the sampler and my needle will be in my hand with only 1/2 of the thread on it!  The other half is shredded on the project. Thank heavens they have all been long enough to thread through stitching on the back to anchor it.  Even the 1 strand of the dark gray shredded every single piece.  I finally cut each already (in my opinion) short piece in half again.  I actually made it to the end of the thread that way!I got a Nook Color this week, 1 whole week early, for my birthday!  I am having such fun with it.  I have found 3 new authors, to me, that have free book series in my preferred genre – Paranormal!!!  Of course, I have bought 3 books too!  Wanted to sit and read/play with it a lot more but since I didn’t stitch at all this week until Saturday, I was good and stitched first!!

Well done and hopefully the rest will be done as quickly!Now there’s a fitting birthday present! Though you deserve it, I think you put up with enough rubbish from your man!

Although since the first 1/2 was stitched by Roseanne, I am going to have to really railroad every stitch and make sure they lay properly so my stitching looks even half way close to hers!!! LOL!
