Do you always sign your projects? If not, why? If so, do you use your first name, initials or what?
I don’t always sign my projects, I almost always sign them. I didn’t sign them at all when I started stitching. In fact, I didn’t sign a thing until I met Dave, and he made me […]

I stitched madly away at this yesterday, and finished. And Dave loves it. Now, to get lining and backing fabric and to figure out how to make into an actual, usable stocking. I’m not terribly good at sewing, so that’s the tricky part. Even stitching this on a rotation it didn’t take too terribly long. […]

As promised, I have a few photos to share from our little vacation last week at the resort in Las Vegas. We were busy packing and organizing most of the day before. Here’s one of the worst photos of me on record, tired from having been up most of the night before, and having been […]

How do you feel about staying totally true to a pattern? Do you feel that you have to rip out stitches to fix a mistake or do you feel it’s acceptable to incorporate a mistake into the design?

When comparing large projects versus small projects, which do you get more excited about finishing?
I definitely get more excited about finishing large projects. It takes so long to do them that it’s quite a feeling of accomplishment when they’re done. That said, it’s not like I don’t enjoy doing small projects, too. In fact, sometimes […]

Here I go again. Reading things. Getting interested. Wanting to start more projects. Though clogs can’t take that much yarn, can they? It’s even possible that I might have yarn laying around here somewhere that would work. I wonder if I have enough Galway left from knitting that Aran… And something wool to keep my […]

I think I’m a little late getting on this bandwagon, but my excuse is that I only just found it on Jessica’s blog!

“I, Laura, swear on the head and/or the grave of my sainted granny to never wear, buy, knit, crochet, or fashion from the old throw rug, the poncho. And if the poncho […]

Today California had a special election. I voted. Did you?

And since I really don’t like discussion political issues, that’s about all you’ll hear from me on the subject. Except this: if you are a California resident, please get out and vote!

Thanks, Kim! Fun quiz. Arrr.

You’re Captain Barbossa, or should I say, First-mate Barbossa. Aren’t you a little old to be playing pirates? With the Captain’s hat seems to come being cruel, mean, and cursed. Ah well, better you than Jack.
