I had a very tough month (emotionally, physically, and financially) and almost no free time to stitch. I'm encouraged that things are going to improve ... so time will tell.

For this month's WIPocalypse update, we are supposed to talk about how we organize our stash. Well ... I don't really have much stash. I keep my current kits, magazines, and extra fabric in a canvas tote. I do have some of my older projects packed in storage (which will be like a treasure hunt when I finally re-discover them!). I tried the little bobbins for floss & just don't like the crimps in the floss that you get from winding them. I tried the binder pages with the long bobbins & didn't care for that system either. So, I keep my extra floss in a big plastic bag inside my wooden stitching box.
Instead of showing boring photos of my tiny stash ... I will share photos of what has been going on in Atlanta:
Happy Spring!

Your sampler looks fantastic! May your luck change to all good.
ReplyDeleteI am so in love with that Nature's Alphabet! BTW, on the floss bobbins, Ihave alwyas had the habit of dampening my floss after it's on the needle, and doing that also gets rid of any crimps or creases in the floss.
ReplyDeleteI love your stitching and rug. It has been quite a while since I did a latch hook. I always enjoyed them. I may have to look for a project. I hope the upcoming month is better than the last.
ReplyDeleteI hope life improves for you soon.
ReplyDeleteNew follower to your blog - I love the pieces you are working on! The Spring Sampler is gorgeous, and I have always loved Theresa Wentzler's Castle Sampler. Looking forward to your updates!
