I am stitching away on this Breastplate. I guess this is called a running stitch, I just pick up a few threads and then continue to stitch, maintaining a similar length of stitch for each. It creates little dots on the back of the work, which is very pleasing to me. So far I have used 4 different colors of hand dyed threads, and I love that I figured out how to eliminate the white spots in the dyeing process.
My mother and I have a road trip planned for the weekend, we will be going to a craft fair. I am happy about this on so many levels. I need to get out of the house for one. And generally, I have been depressed and down lately. I need a jog from normality. So, I am packing my bags, bringing my stitch work and hightailing it.
Off to make coffee and pack my bags!
Have a fabulous time! This will be so good for you in so many ways. Enjoy!!!
And, without a doubt, we will be laughing hysterically very soon.
This is good!!! Laughing hysterically and having fun.
The best thing for lifting the spirits is to “hit the road”. May it be a joyous and adventure filled few days.
Have fun!!! I hope you laugh so hard, well you know……..a potty stop may be necessary. 🙂 The show looks marvelous. I hope you are inspired, elated, have secret jokes, and have so much fun you feel like you could fly. xoxo
Have a wonderful time! This sounds like just what you need!
