Cross Stitch Ramblings

30.12.05

I'm still here.....

I'm not going to apologise for leaving it so long to write again, because I do that every other entry! But I will at least write something to let my stitching friends know I'm still alive!

My stitching goals written about in November were a bit ambitious. There was no way I was going to get through all that lot in November. I did, however, finish the skirt on Celtic Winter - I'll post a picture asap. In December I picked up Waiting for Neptune - intending to get one full page of the pattern done. I did get quite a bit of it done, but am not really satisfied with the quality of my stitching - maybe I'm too much of a perfectionist. Anyway this project is not making me happy right now so I'm not going to do any more work on it this round of the rotation.

I'm in a stitching lull right now. Since I put WFN away 2 or 3 weeks ago I haven't picked up a needle. December seems so full of other things. I didn't stitch all of December last year either so I'm not too worried - I have every confidence I'll be back in full stitching mode next year!

At the moment I have a stinking cold/throat infection. I've picked up a lot of cold type bugs this year but this one is the worst for years. I am on the mend now but at times have felt absolutely horrible. Hopefully 2006 will enter with me in better health.

Happy New Year to everyone ...... see you in 2006!
