I had more time to finish G's Christmas present, so I took it down to the wire- I finished stitching this on Christmas Eve, then bought the frame the day after Christmas, then didn't lace it and frame it til the night before we went to SF. But it's done, yay me! It's a desk toy for G at his new job. He thinks it rules and honestly I do too :)
I'm really glad to finally get rid of that cotton candy pink and baby boy blue hand dyed fabric. It's really pretty fabric! But it's not to my taste - the kinds of things I like to stitch don't look awesome on pink and blue fabric. Same with the hot pink hand dyed silk thread - what the hell else will I ever do with hot pink thread?? So this appeals to my inner Funderness and also uses up materials I wouldn't usually use. :)
You know I look at this sentiment and think I "should" have something wise to say but all I can think is how said it is that this saying is so true.
