I can't help it, it's an addiction.

Over the weekend I just quit fighting....and started a new project. Yeah, the castle and it's knotwork border are still sitting in the WIP pile, and I'll finish them "soon", I promise...but TW's "Tole Heart" was just too much for me. So Saturday I went out and bought the 2 or 3 necessary floss colors that weren't in my stash, found a piece of fabric that I liked, and started stitching. I'm doing it on a piece of 28-ct. Tea-colored Monaco. (And can I just say, the Charles Craft Monaco cloth is icky. Very stiff and unpleasant to work with. But cheap....) Oh, and I turned the lightest color pink around the outside of the big heart into beads. I hope Teresa would approve - I just love adding sparklies!

Oooh I'm so jealous I've always wanted to stitch Tole Heart. Would one librarian mind lending the magazine to another librarian when she's done ;-)

Craft Sale!

So my mother and I set up our little table at the craft fair this past weekend.  And we didn't do terribly!  I sold $125 worth of needle...
