Ramblings of a Geeky Witch
I can’t tell you how amazed, fascinated, and excited I am that so many people are stopping by to check in stitching progress. I admit to being a bit like a little kid, stealing peeks at the check-in entry to see how large the number of posts is now – and my goodness, this is happening […]
Time for the first check-in! How have your first few days been going? I’m planning to post the check-in a couple days before the full moon every month, partially so it’s available for our Aussie and Kiwi stitchers who start the posting date several hours ahead of me, and partially because I’m aware that […]
Thanks to the amazingly talented Rahenna, we have linky buttons! (If you’re not familiar with the piece featured in the buttons, it’s Dragon Rampart from Teresa Wentzler). You’re not required to have one of these on your blog, but please feel free to grab one of them for either your sidebar or your check-in posts! Edit: […]
I decided that since I was taking time this year to work on my own pieces that doing some knowledge expansion was probably also a good idea. I’d run across a few blogs that had interesting little doodle samplers, followed the linky trail, and found myself at Pin Tangle, which hosts a perfect little educational stitch-a-long […]
Before I get to my stitching… thank you to all who sent kind words to me on my end of year blog post. I really do appreciate it. I’m hoping 2012 will be much better. *crossing fingers* My first two days of Crazy January are now complete, and I have two projects underway: I know […]
Thanks to a long delay on Amtrak last week, I made a good amount of progress on my oldest UFO – Cats on a Staircase. Everything in blue and the beginning of that cat tail with the hanging thread was completed this month. It’s probably my largest block of solid progress on the piece in, well, years. […]
I took over our bed last night with stash – spread everywhere. WIPs, unopened kits, new charts I want to start. Our king sized bed was PILED. All so I could sort through everything, see what I needed to purchase to get started or to fix my WIPs that had been raided for bobbins for […]
I doubt I’m the only one late this month… I completely blanked on posting this before leaving for my mom’s, and then realized when I was browsing blogs this morning that I’d missed the date! So here’s my final TUSAL jar for 2011. It’s officially full to the rim (only took two years)! This month’s contributions included […]
Erich and I are packing up this morning to head to my mom’s for the weekend. While I celebrate Yule religiously, my celebrations are really based on family traditions more than anything… so I’ll be celebrating Yule via Christmas. It’s honestly all the connection to family in my opinion, and differences in faith should never […]
It’s looking to be a particularly crazy week at work (around the holidays? That never happens to anyone, right?), so I wanted to make a quick post now while I had the chance… The WIPocalypse Basic Info page has been updated – you’ll find links to our forum, to the signup for the reminder message list, and a placeholder […]
