Ramblings of a Geeky Witch
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 […]
I didn’t expect to see a package from Annette until today at the earliest, but to my surprise when I went onto our mud porch on Sunday afternoon… there she was! It turned out way better than I ever expected, thanks to the seven wonderful women who stitched on her. That last square (and space in the […]
First off – Belinda of Blue Ribbon Designs, who taught my class at Stitcher’s Hideaway a few weeks back, has a gorgeous stitchy giveaway happening on her blog. Absolutely beautiful little sewing companions. So hurry over there and enter to win one! It’s been a wild couple of weeks – lots of get-togethers for birthdays, stitching, […]
For October, I wanted to: 1) Stitch two more ornaments, and finish them and the two stitched pieces I already have. I did not stitch the two pieces I already have. I did complete two new ornaments, though!2) Enjoy the Stitcher’s Hideaway retreat. ABSOLUTELY DID! 3) Finish pds’ piece for the UFO RR Done! 4) Update my supply spreadsheet with […]
Can you believe it’s November already? I’m honestly trying to figure out where the hell this year has gone. I swear autumn lasted like two days. Yes, I know it’s technically still autumn, but once that first killing frost hits and the remaining leaves on our trees fall in one big clump to the grass, […]
Blessed Samhain, fellow Pagan friends. 🙂 May the new year bring blessings to you and yours.
I’ll warn in advance… this is going be a long entry with lots of pictures. 🙂 The quick-quick version? I had an absolute blast. Good company, great class, fun shopping, lots of stitching. It was exactly what I wanted (and needed)! I went to Mystic as part of group two. The demand had been large […]
Short, short entry for now – I had an absolute blast. I learned bunch. I finished an ornament in class (yay!), and learned so much. I’m now ready to start tackling ornaments with confidence (and will… starting tomorrow!) I have an obscene amount of new stash to show off and lots of photos to upload, but I’ll […]
It’s been a wild few weeks around here. Mostly good, I think. Although the impending holiday craziness is already starting to creep in, and that has me worried. The really really good news: Both Erich and Matt are working. Erich has found an IT job with a metro-Boston hospital, and so far is enjoying it. He […]
