I totally love your terminology, Anne. I am, clearly, NOT a monogamist
stitcher. Since the terms for multiple spouses depend on the gender of the
other parties (polygamist, polyandrist), and I don't think all of my
stitched works are the same gender, perhaps I am bistitchual. Or just a
promiscuous sticher???

Dawne


I'm going with promiscuous stitcher - sounds better than bi-stitchual -
definitely apropos for me. Hmmm - is there a stitchnympho - insatiable
stitcher????


Ellice


Would that be a nymphostitchiac? Or a stitchomaniac?

sue

Stitchmaniac too common. Nymphostitchiac?

How about TMSS -- too much stitching syndrome

Well, clearly I'm a promiscuous stitcher, but I practised abstinence
last year and didn't get anything embroidery related done. Some
jewellery, and a bit of knitting, but that was it. *So anything I'm
carrying with me into the new year has been with me for a while.

I'd like to start a table cloth this year, but am bouncing between one
in Barbara Hammet's William Morris in Crossstitch, and one featuring a
ring of strawberries from a book of Norwegian cross stitch patterns.

Before I start that, however, I'd like to finish reupholstering my
living room furniture and that afghan I'm knitting. And then there are
the big pillows for my bed.

Other than that, there are some computer programs I want to learn, and
weight, of course, or rather, more healthful eating. *Somehow the
latter seems less prone to unrealistic expectations.

Aaah ~ you need a round tuit.- Hide quoted text -

I'm hoping fidelity to one project will help with the round tuits.
Stick to one until I've finished it off and become a black widow of
needlework.

We'll see, that might become a bit boring.-

One of the perils of monogamy, I'm afraid.

And it's a nice simple finish when you need one.

I'll try and find the site that does it all with pins or glue. Just do one
side at at time.

They have round tuits in Canada, on Newfoundland. When I lived there
with my family, my mom got one each for my eldest brother and me. I
still have mine, in a box in the bedroom that's "mine" in my parents
house. So, as soon as I get a round tuit, I'm going to get it out of
the box and.....yes, well, there's the problem.

And I'm planning to finish two cushion covers, and the picture of my
mother that I've mentioned on this group before. (Started in 98/99,
don't recall which.) And if there's time, I'm sure I'll find something
more to stitch
