Ramblings of a Geeky Witch
Hi everyone! Happy end of January! It’s been a wild month here in the Measi household with flooding rains, multiple cars deciding they were at the end of their lifetimes, and winter illnesses that felt like they just didn’t want to give us up (but did, in fact, want to let us down…). I’m honestly […]
Hi everyone! 2024 has now commenced! Welcome to our 13th annual WIPocalypse stitch-a-long! I’m a believer in the positives of the number 13… so I’m focusing on the good luck that the year will bring. 🙂 May all of your needles fly quickly, and may you enjoy your crafty project work this year! I have […]
Hi everyone! And here we are… December 31st. Crazy how fast years fly – I swear each one goes faster than the last! I’m not sure whether that’s a good or a bad thing sometimes. I have one last project I want to try to fully finish today before the clock strikes midnight and the […]
Current WIPs Note: Must have been started prior to 2024. Bolded means I have worked on them in 2024. Legacy/UFO Projects Note: These are projects, either started before 2013 or that I’ve adopted from others but have not yet stitched on personally, that are in a holding pattern – especially because I have too many […]
This challenge is to read books by Southern authors set largely in the American South. I expect this will be a library-based challenge on my end, given my general To Be Read list. Although I may surprise myself and find something among my owned pile. I am signing up for the Level 3 challenge – […]
Adding a couple other challenges to my list to get through my To Be Read piles in the house. Between trips to the Book Barn and random Friends of the Library sales, I have a bit of a pile issue. 🙂 The Backlist Reader Challenge is for books that were published at LEAST a year […]
I have a ton of books around my house to read thanks to multiple trips to the glorious Book Barn in Niantic, CT. Covid really did a number on my reading habit, and one of my goals for 2024 is to get back into reading. A couple reading challenges will definitely help me get back […]
Hi everyone! As I set this check-in post up, it’s the day after Thanksgiving. After cooking for a good portion of yesterday (it all turned out fantastic!), today is a personal puttering day. I’m catching up on some various blog stuff before I settle down with some absent-minded trash TV and stitch the evening away. […]
Hi everyone! After an absolutely beautiful summer-like stretch of weather this past week, it’s now decidedly autumn with a light rain. The leaves started falling in large amounts the past couple days, even though half of the trees are still quite green. It’s an odd autumn here – although the color has been quite pretty. […]
Hugs & Kisses came into my possession kind of a weird way. It was never mine to finish solo, but it’s going to end up being that way. This one has a little bit of a story… In 2009-2011, I, along with a few other stitchers, formed a bi-weekly cross stitching gathering at the Warwick […]
