After The Card....
Well, Dear Readers, I have finished THE Card... but I can't show you pictures yet because it would ruin the surprise for my Family. So while I await their receipt of the card in the mail, I have been racking my brains for something to show you on the blog. You will understand that there has been NO time for minis for weeks.... and weeks...... and weeks! In fact I can't really remember what I was working on ... other than the Sugarplum structure construction, which has also languished in the weeks of focus on the Holidays. And I will confess that I always feel a certain amount of "loss" or disorientation when I complete a card.... or any project that requires such intense and prolonged focus. It feels as though I must reacquaint myself with ME.... what I am doing, what I am planning... where I left all my parts and pieces of all those other projects.... ! Not to mention that Usually I am done sooner... and can begin Taking Stock sooner... right after the New Year is a good time to begin again. So I hope you will not mind too much if all I can show you is a few tiny stitches done on that tiny Christmas Stocking... (yes.... Christmas still!) which I started while visiting my parents in the Fall.
I had managed to work on it a little bit in November...
Hoping that I would maybe finish it by Christmas....
I made good progress around Thanksgiving...
But that is as far as I got before I really had to begin The Card.
And we know what happens after that!
So here we are weeks and weeks later
and I hope you don't mind that I have nothing else to show!
(And I apologize for the blurry pictures...!)
I guess I'll just have to keep taking Stock(ings)
now that I am done with the Card!
