I have a little stitcher in the family other than
myself.
Sophie has jumped in with both hands and feet
and has amazingly made 26 smaller yo yo's for her monkey
in 4 hours,
and she has needed zero assistance from me
other than to be shown what she had to do.
As of tonight she has her very own needles, scissors,
reel of cotton and a nifty little case to keep it all in
Imogen was making the large yo yo's but was
quickly side tracked so Sophie has taken them on too
Henrycat has spent a good part of today sitting in this
position trying to work out just how he can sleep on
Homecoming Lane now its hanging on the
wall
Is anyone one else doing
Photo a Day for 2013??
I downloaded a fabulous app for my phone
called project 365 and it was free
and yesterday I got a new clothesline
this one winds up and it's straight too
and a nifty basket holder that hooks on
really its the little things that excite me,
you should see how excited I get when
new white goods are entering the house
and Lancaster progress, after being ignored while
Mum and Dad were here, I got back into it last night
and finished off the vines, tonight I got to start all those
flowers and leaves....
We are expecting 30 degrees tomorrow which is rather warm for
our little town with zero sea breeze to cool us down, so I am thinking a
trip to the beach is in order once we have the housework done, then
home to hide in the cool of the house, and work on
Lancaster and Sophie will no doubt make even more yo yo's
(this monkey better be worth it lol)
I am taking part in the 2013 Stitch A Long again, just waiting for the
Red Home book to arrive in the mail (hopefully tomorrow) and I will
finally get to make some thread catcher baskets, Sophie is definitely
going to need one ;)
and as soon as the sign up call goes out I will be doing
OPAM again, good way to make sure I don't get sidetracked
(like Imogen did)
I am not sure what my 'thing' for 2013 will be
2011 was the year of the UFO
2012 was the year of Stash Busting
2013 will be the year of..........
