Stitching, stitching, and more stitching! And I’m loving it all. I also interviewed a wonderful indie author who writes cozy romantasy. Check out our conversation on my Spotlight. Lots of medical follow-ups this month, and getting used to my five-year course of hormone blockers. Still, not really any complaints on the cancer front. Other than that, just using my time to stitch, get out, and walk in this crazy, gorgeous weather.

The wild horses are also out for a walk today.

I hope you enjoy these stitchy photos of my projects as much as I do… Click here and here for previous articles in my stitchy saga. Linking to shops where I can.

Keep in mind, variety is the spice of life. It’s not hoarding…

WIPs

What I’m kitting up for and can’t wait to start

Isn’t this stunning? It’s from Heaven and Earth Designs (HAED), featuring artwork by Ernie Francis. Just my cup of tea, gorgeous, colorful mixed media, a captivating geisha, and my favorite Japanese anime hiding in the background. But folks, this is full coverage, 90 DMC colors, and 20 x 25 inches when finished (stitching tiny stitches in every little square). I will need to put the unfinished work in my will.

I have eclectic tastes, eh? But aren’t these wonderful? (I’ll just restate it here. I am not a hoarder.)

Which Witchy Stitcher for an October Start?

However, I must finish these awesome WIPs first.

I also got Meg Black’s awesome book from Amazon. I’m drooling over Dracula’s House and Nevermore. There’s also a Poe bookmark to do.

Which Artsy Housewife after Cats and Cocoa?

Others I want to stitch, but down the road sometime… Sigh…

I’ll leave you with photos from my 80s and 90s stitchwork sprinkled throughout my house

Some newer ones. As you can see, some still need finishing… Working on it.

Thanks for letting me catalog my stitchworks, as they will likely end up in a landfill someday… or maybe, if they’re lucky, in a thrift store for some future stitchworks-appreciator to collect. I’m not being negative, just realistic, and it’s something I’ve given a lot of thought to lately…

Happy writing, reading, crafting, and stitching!
