here and there and everywhere

 that is how i thought they should be

 but the math was too much for me

so i settled for a flight plan that didn't hurt my brain

J.R.R. Tolkein

so many books ... so little time

books ... books ... books

 

i love books

i despise book bans

don't tell me what i may or may not read

i could definitely use the french knot powder

 the pattern calls for piecing blocks and stitching over them

 after stitching Snow Pact, i knew that was not gonna happen EVER again

so i traced this out on one big piece of the pale poison green fabric 

and that left that big open space under the birdies

that was gonna be a problem...

just sayin' 

The best way to escape from a problem is to solve it.

Brendan Francis

stinky feet

 a 5 gallon jar emptied of toad warts

and a tin of waterproof foot powder

i dunno about this one...

it was a fun stitch, though

just sayin'
