Besides that, I have received the 22-count sample from Crafty Princess (THANK YOU!) but have yet to test it out. I'll definitely let you guys know when I do! I'm not in a particular hurry. This is because I'm completely insane and fixed up a schedule for myself - which projects I'm going to do when. Meaning, when I finish one, what am I going to do next, etc. etc. It's all a little bizarre, but has made me very happy.
Now on to the stitching. I took part in IHSW this weekend so I have some pictures and limited progress.
Before:
After but before IHSW:
After IHSW:
The last picture was taken in sunlight and most accurately represents the colors. Also, page 10 is an absolute confetti NIGHTMARE and considering how much of this piece I've done already, that's saying a lot. I'll be lucky to still be 26 by the time I'm done with it the way things look. I actually spent a good amount of time stitching on it this weekend, but what you see is all I got done - I really thought there'd be more! Ah well.
And, of course, TUSAL.
I know I'm really behind with all of your blogs. I've been working about 39 hours a week, doing the school thing, and cleaning, and by the time I'm all done for the night it's time to go to bed and wake up at 6am. No fun... But I'm doing my best and wanted you to know that even if I don't comment, I have been looking! I try to comment as much as I can but sometimes I only have a few minutes in front of the computer for non-school stuff. Either way, I hope you all understand. HUGS!

Happy Birthday Ewa! Loving your College, is coming along nicely.
Hi Ewa
I'm really glad to hear that you're alive and well. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Sounds like you were spoilt which is awesome to hear. Also glad to hear that the fabby sample arrived. I can't wait to see how you get on with it. All your posting about GK has made me itch to get into mine so I've brought it forward in my rotation.
I like your before, after but before and after pics (LOL you crack me up!) for college, I can imagine the confetti nightmare. It looks fantastic. Beautiful work!

I'm glad you're doing well, Ewa! Happy Birthday! Your stitching is lovely as always. Thought I'd let you know that I got a promotion at the library I work at! I'll be starting as an acquisitions assistant in a couple of weeks!

Love your TUSAL...where did you get the china cups..they are beautiful!
Hope school and work are going well!!
I have been unforgivably lazy with blogs, both with updating mine and reading others', and my only excuse is that I simply haven't been in the mood for that! So here I am commenting ten days late...
Nice to hear from you again and I totally understand if you don't always comment on my entries - this stuff should be fun and not one of the things that stress you out! I'm sure the confetti nightmare will look fabulous when it's done, good luck with it and work and school! Don't burn yourself out! I hope you get to slow down a bit every once in a while.
Damn!!! I missed your birthday!!! Happy Belated Birthday, sweetness!!!!
