RSC13- HOW BLUE AM I?
Spring has come on tippy-toes here; one warm day, the next windy and cold!
Our new color for May in RSC13 is Blue--but Bright blues.
I find it difficult to distinguish the brights in my scraps; maybe because they are mostly pieces of novelty prints and have lotsa colors and blue predominant?
AND, I want to sew up some "made" fabric I think as these scraps are small--no biggies!
I am still sorting..you'd think I'd have a lot of blues..but not so...will post more on this as I begin to sew....
AND now here is my latest work on my cross (emphasis on cross!) stitchery:
I was working along (minding my business--when whap, slam, alacazam!) I mis-counted> My (free spirited) bird is one little thread too low! How did i do this?????I counted, re-counted, got a cup of tea and sipped some, took a deep breath and counted yet again...and
STILL DID IT WRONG---aaargh!
I hear the distant peeps of many "frogs" chorusing up my street and coming for a visit! Oh, no! I have to UNDO it. This is a lot of hours work....and so it goes mes amies...Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme...
I leave you with the vision of me undoing all those lil' stitches. DH thinks I should leave it there--but I will always K N O W it's there..Hmmmpfh!
