Mirabilia and Lavender & Lace, Butternut Road, TIAG Stitchers Gallery This is a wonderful website to get idea's from stitchers all across the world, and the designs of Miribilia as well as TIAG/LL/BR .
No pictures yet on what I'm working on, its relaxing and a lot of fun, but like blogging I got out of the habit, and I have to dedicate time to getting back up to speed, and such.
On the Stitching Blog this weeks question was Patience is a Virtue.
Honestly I can say it is, if you want to have a successful project it takes a lot of patience to get all the threads/fibers/beads and fabric, plus adding it to your rotation. But the rewards are the chance to zone out for a while where you can zone out.
Now as someone with attention deficit disorder, it is not always easy to find things that can engage our patience, but well worth it, its one of the factors that let me get more done and can take that focus to other projects. Patience doesn't mean I only have one project going at a time at least not for me, their all at different stages, some are just kitted, others I'm almost done with just bored for the moment.
I do hope to get better at it, and have more completed, but WIP's are a good thing, and UFO's do get reclaimed.
Well we're definitely moving this week, no idea how to get it done, even though I could literally carry things back and forth, I just need to figure out how to get stuff done.
that's it for now. Hope you all are having a good week, and if any of this rings true let me know 'k
Christian, who's back to Mirabilia's Emerald Mermaid I hope to post my pictures of how its going but till then I can say its good to be back to stitching.
Andúril: It's a sword from Lord of the Rings, it was broken and is now reforged stronger and truer than it was before. That's how Robert and I see our selves, our marriage, and our lives. We are stronger now because of the battles we have endured. By the Grace of God, and stubborn determination we are Made New.

mirabilia
Sorry I've not written in months, 6 months to be precise, but well I've been so busy with work, and family that I let my spining and knitting and crochet get lost, started doing jewlery, just some beading and wire work.
But, I'm on a med leave, so I was getting bored, and I happened upon this site Mirabilia, and remembered why I love cross stitch so I started Emerald Mermaid.
And on the MLI who's the designer of the Told in a Garden series. From that I started also working on The Peace Angel which was a chart I'd had for years, and so I've gotten a couple of charts going that and a holiday cherub from Mirabilia.
Besides that the families okay, missing my daughter Stephanie and twin grandson's Seth Thomas and Tyler Joseph who moved back to California. But Praise God I still have my Beloved Robert.
We're moving to a new house this week so hopefully it won't be a million years before I write again.
Thats all for now, past bedtime.
