Apparently Posting Doesn't Happen Around Here...

Been in school... Christmas was great... Will post more this weekend, and then possibly not for another 4 months... :)

Goodbye Cross Stitch...

Hello Punch Needle!!!!

I bought these all in the past week and am currently on the poppies... Fun fun fun!!!! :)

Let's Do The Time Warp!!!

I have been lacking in writing... I find when I'm stressed beyond all belief I avoid doing things that other people can see and appreciate... My writing and my stitching being two of those things... Until last Saturday I had not done any stitching on my Brguiling Tiger since the last time I posted... Now I'll remind you all why...

I told my boss my plans for school sometime in early June... I then told her she was not to tell anybody about these plans until July... For some reason, having this a secret just felt right for awhile... July 1st the cat was out of the bag... I am done at my job on the 19th of August... I fly to NL on the 22nd of August... I move into my boarding house room on the 1st of September... I start school on the 9th of September... For the past week, I have been stressed about my school schedule, because for one reason or another I could not get into the classes I need for the Pre-Pharmacy... That has finally been settled to my extreme relief... I have about three weeks of employment left, and yes, that does scare the crap out of me...

Wish me luck...

I didn't actually do any stitching on this lately, but I did fix it up a little... This has been a WIP for about... um... five years... I washed it and ironed it to get rid of the filth and (some of the) skew and the wrinkles... I starting working on this before I understood that a hoop (bars) was (were) a must... Also, that washing my hands before touching the cloth was a good idea... Seriously, the wash water was this cloudy murky gross mess...

Goals for the Month of May...

1. Work on "Beguiling Tiger"...
2. (If I finish the previous) Start "Unicorn Mystique"...
3. Start one of my Peonies designs...

A Finish (Coffee Addict) And A WIP (Beguiling Tiger # 1)...

I found this in Wal-Mart yesterday... My "SQUUUEEEEEEEE!" of happiness was loud and amusing to many who heard it... It will go nicely with this which I picked up in Port Huron a couple of months ago... I sense a theme...
