week in review

Stitching:
I haven't done much... but I did some shopping! I bought floss and now I have every DMC color, many of them in multiple quantity. I also bought stand
and more scrolling frames. I had no idea how much easier is to stitch using stand.


Weather:
It is cold, and when I say cold I mean it!


Yesterday morning it warmed up a little and almost felt like a spring... The sun was shining, the roads were dry and in excellent shape and the black spruce looked much greener in the morning sun. Well, that did not last long! With a rapid switch to the north wind temperatures dropped, snow start falling and wind blowing... During lunch hour I decided to go shopping, I went to a car and, to my surprise, it was covered with a half an inch of ice. And after work I drove home in almost blizzard conditions. Today is cold and cloudy with a promise of sunshine later in a day.

Study:
Well, ahead of me is a week full of exams. I'm writing one on Monday, second on Wednesday and the last one on Friday ... Friday the 13th! I hope it will be lucky for me.

  5. BURRRR...I sure wish I could send you some of our sunshine for a couple of days.

    Nice shopping, I've thought about getting a frame but most of my projects are so small I really can't justify the expense.

    Good luck with your exams, I'm sure you will do great on them.

  8. Lovely stitching. And I know what you mean when you're talking about your stand. Since I have mine I even put the smallest things on scroll rods. I just LOVE my stand.
    Hopefully the weather will turn soon to the better. :)
