Crosses And Culture With A Little TUSAL On The Side

NAC Orchestra

The Canal and the Chateau Laurier were very pretty that night

Day 10's start was a brief one because it was also an evening filled with culture!  I had barely an hour's worth of stitching time on Thursday night before I was meeting my parents for dinner and off to the NAC (National Arts Center) for an evening of Legendary Russians with the Orchestra.  We're very lucky to have things like the NAC in our backyard.

Tis' Red (well in this case Green) by La-D-Da from the 2010 JCS Ornament Issue

I would of had more done on my start, but I really didn't like the colour I initially picked.  So I cut away the extra fabric and started over with something that didn't change colours as much!  Once again its another ornament, I'm finding on the week nights these are quick and easy to start.  Also with having large projects on the go like : The Accolade, The Big Red, Cirque des Circles and ABC Christmas Sampler I really don't want to start anything else of size.

Its also time for the first TUSAL of the year.  There are a great assortment of threads in here from all of my Crazy Starts!  I even cleaned my vase for you this time (it looked pretty scuzzy on my first post of the year).
