9 September





I am still working on the Autumn quilts counted cross stitch

I did some work on it last night when I was feeling rather tired

let's just say mistakes were made

after I'd ripped about a half hours worth of work out I decided to put it down and get some rest

 the boys were with us this week and I was reading from 

The Indian in the Cupboard Returns

We have The Field Guide to Atlantic Seashore Crabs out on the porch

I picked it up at the library book sale and actually thumb through it rather often.

  1. i used to love doing cross stitch ... sadly, other things have come to occupy my time instead {like being online?!}

    but i do have several special pieces hung here and there. my favorite is a sampler done in 1984.

    gee i'm getting old ...

    ;-}

  2. What you posted looks skillfully done to me! Amazing how fatigue can interfere with activities; wise to put the craft away and read instead.

  3. How annoying to have to rip out your work. It is looking lovely though. I love nature guides too - there is always something interesting.

  4. That is a beautiful cross stitch! I'm picky about patterns, no painted lady cross stitch for me - those quilts are great! Hope you got good rest and are back to stitching today!
