Stitchery, kayaks, and goldfish

I have been stitching like crazy. It's an abstract embroidery, lots of color. There will be photos when it is complete. I'm thinking of mounting it on felt, and rigging a way for it to be hung. I haven't embroidered in ages. I had forgotten how much I missed it!

I have another stitchy project planned involving stitching over someone else's artwork. I have received permission, so, we'll see how that turns out! And, when it's all done there will be pictures of course!

Still not done with my skirt. I've gotten to the hand sewing bits, and well, I've given up. I can't find my proper color of thread to sew the facing and waistband down with, so it will wait.

I got a package in the mail today! I got a replacement shaft for one of my drop spindles. They also included a whole new spindle and some beautiful hand dyed silk! I have to do some more spinning!

I went kayaking earlier. It felt good. I get the feeling though, that I have been a bit sunburned, and that my shoulders will be a bit sore tomorrow.

My little brother has confiscated my goldfish crackers. DAMN HIM.

That is all.
