Deadline? Oops...

Despite my stitching until new and strange calluses form on my fingertips, I'm not going to make my deadline for the Phat Quarter Music Swap.  Boo-hoo!  I'll have to ship my piece off to New Zealand next week.  But my lateness isn't due to a lack of effort! I think I was just too ambitious in terms of the size and the amount of stitching this was going to take.


But I'm really happy with how it is turning out.  It will be hard to give this up because it is my most involved embroidered piece so far. 


I'm so in love with stitching.

  1. It's fantastic so I wouldn't worry about being a bit late with sending it! I'm tardy too with the swap. Somehow inspiration left me halfway the project. But I'm going to continue working on it tonight. :)

  2. I'll be so sad to see this one leave us (being a vinyl fan), but so happy Jo will get to enjoy it!
