My obsession with HAED and crochet and yarn and stuff . . . . .

Wednesday, 28 September 2011

.. sigh ..

aaaarrrrrrgggggghhh what is it with me and new starts at the moment??  Why can't I just settle down and get something done ... or maybe even *gasp* finished! I have another newbie in the pipeline - Tranquility by The Vintage Angel.  I couldn't resist and finally bought her in the sale.  Here she is again (I know that you've seen a picture here before but she is sooo gorgeous she is worth another look):


It seems like fate that I have a piece of my favourite bone jobelan in *exactly* the right size so I have to do it ... yes?  Completely dire on the thread front though, I think I have about 6 of the 90 I need - so another order has gone off to Donna at Cross Stitch Heaven.  But, after looking through my stash, another! Ta-da! some of the threads I need for the first column are in Dragon Charmer!  I could "borrow" them and put them back when the order comes from Donna.  So ... fate strikes again ... yes?!

That means I'll have had 3 new starts in just over a month!  Yes I know no-one is counting but seriously??  These are HAEDs we are talking about ... it's not like they are a short term commitment .. I *really* need to get a grip on myself!

    now here's a girl after my own heart! Nothing quite like a new start and another new start, and another new start, a life like this makes you want to live to at least the age of 163.
    Be always in stitches.

    I always do my best not to stitch many things at once and it's really hard not to be tempted ;-)
    Haeds are really tempting because sometimes you just need a break von such a huge project!
    And the new starts you made are soooo beautiful =) I have been eying Tranquility, too. Very beautiful design, I'm looking forward to see your progress =)

    LOL, you're too cute!!!! If it calls to you, start it. *Gasp* I can't believe I said that. If any of my friends saw this, they'd call me an impostor cos I always give them a hard time about starts. ;)

    This is a gorgeous design... can't wait to see your WIP of her. :)
