Delightfully Crazy

Thought I would share this link to Delightfully Crazy. What a wonderful Victorian Tassel Doll she has given a tute for.

Cutie Patootie!



The Ubiquitous Kimchee Pot!


Tulips!

We went to Pyeongtaek flower festival (just us gals) last Friday before our trip to Seoul. Good Fun! More flowers and pics to come!




Slower then a Turtle!

Here's more work on Jackie's block... I know I am slow. Super Slow! Possibly one more seam and then it is time to send it on.


More of Jackie's block

I did this seam a few days ago and really like the simplicity of it. =)


This is Melissa's work on the same block. Just Beautiful! There is so much work on this meandering motif!


I worked on this yesterday. Since Jackie's block has such a Victorian feel to it I think a fan fits perfect. I hope you like it Jackie. Your block is so beautiful!

Kind of Rusty!

I picked up a needle yesterday and stitched a few seams on Jackie's block. How rusty I have gotten at stitching. I also stitched a beaded feather stitch I will post tomorrow.

Still Sparking...then and now




Well, 17 pounds later- this is before and now. (I know it aint the best pic in the world but it definitely gets the point across)

Busy!

Hello all!

What a time I have had lately! I reformatted my compter and could not set my blogger account to English. Before it would sometimes revert to Korean and I could navigate through it pretty easily to change it back. No problem. This time I could not access Korean and so could not post. I finally figured it out today. I could not even leave comments on other people's blogs which was pretty frustrating.

I haven't done much stitching lately. I wanted to start this week, but life has had a way of passing me by. Hopefully this week- I can't believe it is Friday already.

Keep posted next week. I should be back. I have toyed with the idea of stopping blogging altogether but have made the decision to try and pull off a little stitching time- even if it is just a few minutes every week.

I have been really focusing on getting healthy and losing weight. I have lost about 13 pounds so far and am very excited. =) Unfortunately, the hobby of embroidery is sedentary and doesn't promote much activity. Bummer! ;)

Thanks for all of your kind comments. I apologize for not being able to answer them. I hope all is well with everyone!

Stay tuned!
