Sunday night Q's
How old were you when you started cross stitching?
Who taught you?
How long did it take you to learn?
What was your first project?
Memories of your first stitchings...?
December 30th mid afternoon
Has anyone ever done a blended thread? In the middle of the blooms, it may be hard to see, but the pattern called for 2 yellow strands and 1 green strand for some if the crosses. For one I have never used 3 strands in a pattern and two...it looked pretty neat!
My goal is to finish the two blooms by tomorrow night...sorry pic is sideways. But beautiful none the less! Hope to update again tonight! :) Please pray for my 12yo today...she is having an MRI on her lower back area and has never experienced this type of testing before and a lot is riding on the outcome of the MRI. Her treatment will be dependent on what it shows. Thanks in advance!

December 17 evening
Long day with doctor appointments and mri's. I was happy to come home to my stitching. I missed it all day but knew I wouldn't have time to work on it if I brought it with me. So here is tonight's update:

One leads to another
Keep up the stitching everyone! I am thinking of doing the TUSAL I see everyone has been collecting! I have a bunch ready already!! :) Also looking at the 2013Wipocalypse? I think I spelled that right! Lots to explore. One site leads to another that leads to another and the next thing you know....its MIDNIGHT! :)
Our youngest son was out on a nice ride tonight with dad!

Because I have a neurology appointment tomorrow I am having a lot of anxiety tonight. The stitching is helping my nerves. Before my bubble bath I thought I would post my first update on the new project..."The Legend of the Dogwood Tree".
