Ramblings of a Geeky Witch
I felt like doing a small project this weekend after spending two weeks on Michelle’s UFO piece. This was just what I needed! This is ‘Tis Green by La-D-Da from the Just Cross Stitch Ornament Preview issue. I didn’t feel like dropping the money on expensive overdyed thread, so I went stash-hunting and came up […]
Tomorrow morning’s our Rhode Island Stitcher gathering at the Warwick Library. Erich’s running a game on Saturday out in the garage, which means I have the living room all to myself all day when I get home. Sunday is the beginning of Patriots football. That means – I have an epic amount of stitching time […]
General stuff first. For August, I wanted to: 1) Finish Garden Sampler I’m so flippin’ close on this. I’m guessing I have 5-10 hours left at most. It’s in my commuting bag, and I’ve been working on it every evening on the train. By Labor Day, oh yes… this will be done!2) Finish my hours on […]
I just finished this under an hour ago. This is one of three Garden Samplers from the Prairie Schooler (“Book #45″). This piece was started by Erich’s mom at some point. I found it among her knitting supplies a couple years ago as we were sorting her belongings after she’d passed away in 2007. It’s […]
Today was a very stitch-filled day, completely focused on Garden Sampler. I made great progress and I think that I might be able to get this completed tomorrow – or at the very latest on Monday. I have a little text left, a bird in the lower corner, and then some fill-in flowers, and I’m done. […]
Another Round Robin has just closed for signups, and now it’s time to start thinking about what I’ll send around. My photos below are about a round out of date… I seem to have misplaced my latest updates on them. But you’ll get the general idea. I had an initial decision to send Walk in […]
Honesty, the b.s. from Globat’s moves to new servers just finally pushed me into fixing things. I’ve wanted to go to WordPress for a while because of the flexibility, but had dreaded transferring my entries over. Turns out, I didn’t need to worry – there was a very easy blogger to WP importer. I do […]
So… my 1001 days expired last month. I managed to do 46 things on my list, with some things still in progress. Honestly? Not bad. I’ve forgotten dates for some of these things I’ve done… but I will be honest on them, of course. 101 things in 1001 days The Mission: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of […]
So… my guild’s a bit slower than some to get into raiding. We had a bit of drama happen a few months ago, the quick-to-80 people left, and it put the 10-man stuff on hold for us. BUT… we got there. And about… six weeks ago(?) we started with Obidian Sanctum. Took us a few […]
Before I do my photo meme post, I just have to share this one… Erich found a birds next in our Pyracantha bush yesterday, nestled in a well-hidden patch underneath the thorns. It’s only a couple steps off the driveway, growing next to the house. We thought there were only a couple birds, but now […]
