one to decide, eh? LOL
Actually, I did do the shovelling.....it's not my fault 60 mph winds decides to blow it hither and yon. Once I made it to my stitching chair, it was all over but the crying. I have now completed 8 and half pages of the 17 for Angelic Greetings. Man, this thing is going to be bigger than I realized.......not exactly like this is the first time I have miscalculated a pattern size or how long it will take me to do!
Visited the bulletin boards looking at all the lovely work being done and I can tell you, I am downright impressed. There are now designs on my wish list I would never have considered, but after seeing them stitched, unbelievable!!!! I realize designers have to be careful, if the photographs are too good, some enterprising rip-off artists then scan the photo to make illegal charts. But if the photos are really bad.......it makes you hesitate on spending your money to buy the thing to begin with. Really a vicious cycle, not sure if there is an answer, but I am thankful for all the stitchers who have shared their work so many of us could change our minds.
Well, there's a sink full of dishes waiting, might as well get those done now that the girls are off to bed. If my eyes will cooperate, I might even manage another half page on my chart before I fall asleep. Oh to have the stamina of a 20 year old.........
