Enough on the silly stuff on to the stitching stuff. Last weekend my hubby and I spent some time up in Williamsburg. We did a little outlet shopping and a little bike riding and of course I hit the cross stitch shop.
I like that shop. The ladies are always so nice. I did not find the things I was really looking for but I did find a few goodies. I should say we ate too. I say this because I gained a pound. I was not upset because like I said I ate. But on the good side I finished the Blackbird Design Seaside Retreat. It looks pretty good now I just need to figure out if I'm going to frame it or not. Probably frame it. I did pick up another WIP it is not at all my favorite piece but I have seen it framed with a great mat, it's another Blackbird Design 'Peace on Earth'. I think I keep picking it up because of the framed piece and I keep putting it down because it just doesn't do it for me. Even if I don't finish it I am going to work on it a bit. The more I work on it the closer it comes to the frame. I will keep my promise to myself three finishs before a new start. Believe me I have a few WIPs that can be finished.
My plans for the weekend were suppose to be working on a little garden behind my shed for some tomatoes. But guess what my hubby has done it for me. I am so happy about this a couple years ago I tried those topsy things and had NO tomatoes. I know I can at least get a few this year. I didn't like tomatoes for a long time then it clicked and I love fresh tomatoes. I think my grandma would be proud. So now I think my plans are going to be . . . stitching of course!
