Thanks, everybody!
I was so happy to have finished it, so I could start something new. So last night I spent about an hour going through all my stash, looking for a new project, something that's NOT a jar. I have that Dimensions pattern of flowers inside mason jars so I thought I'd do that. I cut out the fabric (used my lugana 32 ct fabric, not the aida 14 in the kit), taped off the edges, got all settled in... and saw that a TON of this pattern is blended threads. I was too tired to deal with it. lol I'll see what I feel like after work today.
And all that was after spending at least an hour searching for a 3"x3" bluebird pattern that has some detail, my mom wants a jar with this on it. I found a handful but they're very simple, beginner designs. Which is fine... but I was hoping to find something a little more intricate. So I found a cute pattern on etsy with 5 bluebirds. I bought it, thinking I'll just stitch up one of the birds. Sigh. Looks like one of those HAED patterns, it's like 30 pages and I can't make out from the pattern what's bird and what's flower/branch. Back to the drawing board.
I love stitching, but sometimes it can be really frustrating!
Now that' I've written a book, I think I'll go get some breakfast...
Nothing will stop you now...
) and is going to spend the rest of my life in a drawer unfinished and un-loved!
