I guess you must all be out enjoying the nice weather! I have been enjoying the nice weather and the rainy weather as well! Yard work when it's nice and stitching when it's rainy. I went through my WIPs bin and put all my old WIPs on qsnaps or scroll rods. A couple of WIPs were too small for qsnaps, but they got finished anyway. The two that I finished were "With enough coffee I could rule the world" and the "Pastel Heart Sampler" by Woolgathering. Not sure of that website. Now that I have most of my WIPs at the ready, maybe I can get them done so I can start something new! Ready WIPs: 1. The Castle by TW 2. Majestic Eagle by Sunset (a kit) 3. Feathered Stars by Design Works Crafts (a kit) 4. The Promise-Bald Eagle by The Gold Collection (Dimensions kit) 5. Too Cold To Go Outside by Julia Lucas (from a magazine) Ok, I confess. I started a new project last night. But project #5 is almost done, I just need to finish shiny threads and the beads! The new project is very small, under 3 inches square. It's called "Heart - Zigzag Rainbow" by Katherine Martin Tripp from the website www.better-cross-stitch-patterns.com Not sure if it was free or not, but it's cute, small and colorful. I feel so much better now that I've confessed. As punishment I'll do more housework...tomorrow!!! So what is everyone else up to? Sincerely, Up to no good, Dawn |

Sincerely, Up to no good, Dawn I'm still here but knitting rather than stitching proper. My younger daughter goes to a yoga session and one of the others enquired after her socks. So you can guess, I wound up committing to two pairs for her. She wanted to pay me but since she and her husband go yearly for a couple of months to work with Cambodian kids, I said no, 'what goes around comes around' - anyway the circle completes itself I suppose as any yarn I have left over goes to a friend who knits bears that are given to the fire department and police for 'stress bears' for kids. So I had more yarn for her |

I been "lurking" for ages, but rain this weekend meant I finally got a few more stitches done on my "Rowan Tree" crewel kit. I have also knitted a couple of scarves.

Yup, it's a freebie and really cute! I feel so much better now that I've confessed. As punishment I'll do more housework...tomorrow!!! How was your penance? Do you now have a sparkly home? So what is everyone else up to? I'm about 2/3 done with my Victorian house project and about 1/4 done with my cable afghan. -- Joan See my pictures he http://ndjoan.shutterfly.com/pictures If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace happiness, then go ahead and worry!
