In my part of the world we say you are a fool if your passion for a pursuit overcomes all practical sense. I am a stitching fool, and I stitch foolishness.

Ann Scutt has wandered back

Ann Scutt won the toss and came on the trip.

And this is where she is at the moment:


I need to stitch the outline of the third large flower, then just about everything is filled in with double running stitch. The colors change so frequently I plan to have three needles threaded at all times so I can be sure that I don't miss anything.

After this band is finished, I have three more large floral bands, an alphabet, and the attribution band to stitch. It may be possible that I will finish two big samplers this year.

And that probably just jinxed it.
