It’s been a gloomy, stormy Monday and Tuesday and tomorrow is going to be another gloomy, stormy day. Andy and I have been keeping busy indoors with crafts and lapbooking and of course this weather would be perfect for me to take out my needle and do my square on the butterfly sampler. I took out my embroidery thread boxes to finish sorting them out hoping the colours would inspire me…
I sorted them in their DMC number coded categories and put the duplicate skeins in the first compartment of each box.
So I took up my sampler, took out all the threads I needed according to the key, fastened my embroidery ring to the fabric, stitched 5 stitches and next thing I new Andy was having a nap and I was listen to my Pride and Prejudice audiobook and KNITTING!
I just can’t seem to get into cross stitching after such a long break from it. Hoping my cross stitch bug will fly back home soon!!!
