Thursday was the official start of the SAL on Just Nan’s design called Barnabee’s Quest. Woohoo! I’ve loved this design and have owned it and been dying to stitch it for YEARS. I am so glad to have finally started. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Because my stitching time is usually limited to only an hour or two a night and even less lately with everything that’s been going on, I started Barnabee on Wednesday night. A day early, I know, but for once I actually felt like stitching and it was either pull out Bonsai and Buddha for a day (totally not worth it) or start Barnabee’s Quest. I almost felt guilty about working on it for 3 days, until I saw Carol and Leslie’s progress from last night. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n

So, here’s my start:

I know that the picture stinks, but it was 1 AM when I finally stopped stitching on him tonight, so you get the best I could grab at the moment. There will be others, no worries. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Three days of stitching and I feel like I didn’t get too far along, but then I’m a slow<\/del> meticulous stitcher, so everything takes me longer. I had a lot of trouble packing him up when I was done tonight, though. I might have to change my rotation to more of a “when I get sick of this design, I’ll move on to this design” kind of rotation. When you don’t get a lot of time to stitch, it’s hard to put things down and move on when you are still enjoying what you are working on.<\/p>\n

Before I started Barnabee on Wednesday night, though, I had my second finish for 2007 (the first being Rose Basket for Cathy’s RR on Monday\/Tuesday). So, allow me to present to you Just Nan’s Snow Faces, finished in the corresponding WhimZi frame. It is now gracing my cubicle at work, just in time for all of the dustings of snow that we’ve been getting over the past week or so.

This has been one of my travel projects for a little while and I had trouble locating some of the colors in my stash, so I am glad to have it finished. I should have my other travel project finished by Valentine’s Day; just in time to frame it for Terry. I expect that I may even have it finished by the time I reach Cathy’s tomorrow, since I’ll have the whole hour-long drive to sit and stitch.<\/p>\n

Speaking of tomorrow\/today’s event, it’s nearly 2 AM now and I really need to get to bed since I won’t be able to sleep in much. Tah!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
