I've got a big stack of almost finishes that I thought I'd blaze through last week, but I got one of those coloring apps and I got lost in the wonderland; I just couldn't stop - oops! So the bookmark took like ten days, and then I craved some Hello Kitty and I stitched a bunch of the pink background in her with 2 strands instead of 1, so I had to frog it, and then I had an embarrassing and baffling number of problems with her whiskers; they may still be wrong, but I've lost interest and don't care anymore. I think my cross stitch was trying to get back at me for spending so much time coloring, haha!
This is another design from Lit Stitch. I changed the colors to reflect the Packers (700 and 742) - Go Pack Go!
I'm so excited to be doing a proper IHSW - DH is going on a hiking trip to the desert and by some miracle I have Saturday off, so I'm looking forward to a cozy weekend of stitching in my pajamas! I've got a stack of Inspector Morse DVD's, 122 Midsomer Murders in my queue, and the Packers are in the playoffs, so I'm set!
In fun random local news, this little guy was crossing the freeway. Bless the people who just randomly stood in traffic trying to keep him from getting hit by a car:

Cute projects Claudette. Glad they caught him.

My stitching took a backseat to coloring when my husband introduced me to it in July. I've finally managed to reach a balance between stitching and coloring and I hope you will too. I'm sorry you had to frog the Hello Kitty.
I have to admit, I often get sidetracked by coloring apps, too. They are especially addicting at night when I make too many mistakes in my stitching. Congratulations on the bookmark finish! And your Hello Kitty piece is coming right along. Enjoy your hermit and stitch weekend. Happy stitching! -Andrea
I understand getting sidetracked. I’ve been scrapbooking this weekend and haven’t touched a needle. Hello Kitty is so sweet!
Great work. Those coloring apps are fun. I seen about him on our news even in Indiana haha. Too cute. Poor guy. Just wants to be a city sea lion.
Hope your IHSW got you back into productive stitching! We have seals on the beach here but they never venture into town! Too afraid of our marauding seagulls I guess.
