It is pretty wet on the West wet coast, perfect time for relaxing, stitching, reading or updating the blog. Nothing very exciting has happened in my life lately other than sailing. Last Sunday the sky was cleared for a while (it actually turned blue!) so we jumped on the boat and spread sails. We had a lot of fun with sea lions. It looked like they were playing with us. They were sticking their heads above the water, making some kind of noises and as soon as I try to catch them on the camera they made a perfect flip and hide under the water only to show up in a different spot. Here are couple of my attempts to capture the fun.
And, of course I was stitching some. I promised to myself that I will work on one project at a time and now I'm keep stitching my Santa's 12 days of Christmas. Santa number 7 and 8 are finished, now I'm working on Santa #9.
Colours are showing depending on the light. The closest to original is Santa #7. I hope I can finish Santa #9 tonight and then I will have to finish three more Santas before Christmas. Can I do it? What do you think?
Summer is gone, September is almost gone - time for an update! Let's start with stitching. My Woodland Santa is done
and Santa #6 is done
and that makes the whole project half done
And let me tell you about biggest surprise - we bought a yacht. Yeap, a 40 footer sailing yacht. I have never sail before, I'm a glider pilot but Freddy is the sailor and I figured that us and mom can have fun together and add a little adventure to our lives.
This baby will be ready to sail tomorrow to her new home.
