Crafting Update… April 17, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — dznyknitter @ 3:53 pm

Well, today I did the regular craft chore (at least it’s a regular chore for me) — I cleaned / organized my craft closet. I don’t tackle the entire thing at a go — but about every nine months or so (sometimes more frequently) I either organize the yarn crafts or the needlework crafts (cross-stitch, sewing, quilting & since I haven’t really sewn or quilted anything in years, it’s really just cross-stitch).

Oh yeah, this was all part of the day spent with my new toy — a swiffer wet jet!!

The over-riding discovery — I have a huge stash and a larger pile of WIPs than I thought! I’m embarrassed! I even considered just throwing some of the WIPs in the garbage. I started them SO long ago and my tastes / style has changed! But some of them are so doggoned close to being finished that I can’t stand the thought of tossing them in the garbage. I’ve noticed that no one has started reading this bog yet (oh well)… But if anyone is interested in some nearly completed cross-stitch… give me a buzz :)

Discovered today – no longer to my taste – the ones I can remember right off the top of my very tired head (remember that I’ve wetjetted every floor in the house and moved a lot of furniture!).

  • Lady of the Thread by Marilyn Leavitt-Imblum
  • a little sweetheart hardanger embroidery kit, lovely pinks/creams/greens
  • a small Thanksgiving doodad with overdyed thread

That’s all for now :)
