Between everything going on I didn't really get a weekend this past week and I've been quite exhausted! Scary to say I've barely stitched in over a week now. I think I've managed to put in a stitch or two here and there but no true stitching time. If I can get anything accomplished I'd like to get my ornament for May finished. But so far that's not happening because I have so much online stuff to catch up on.
Friday, Saturday a
nd Sunday was Needlearts 2006, and exhibition of needlework my guild puts on every two years. This year I was one of the organizing co-chairs. Friday was an incredibly long day with getting the show set up for 6pm when we opened to the public. I spent all day Saturday there as well, volunteering as a docent... and keeping an eye on my baby so to speak. I totally missed Sunday and the takedown of the show due to the wake.

I think I'm going to go back to practicing "La Technique" that is stitching one project at a time. I feel like I'm spending so little time on any one project that it'll take me years to finish what I've got on the go!!!

{{Hugs}} to you and Todd. The show looks awesome, I wish our local official guild was as organized!!
Sorry to hear about Todd's aunt. It must be a sad time for you all.
Dani returning to La Technique ? *gasp* ! I can understand why though. Occasionally it does seem like nothing is getting finished. Personally though, I think you've done alot this year ! I've certainly enjoyed the pics :)
Congratulations on such a successful show. Sorry to hear about Todds Aunt
Needlearts 2006 looks like it was fun - lucky you :-) I love your Montreal Sampler - superb!!
