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.

Spangles and more spangles

 I realized last night that it's been almost a month since I worked on one of my Zina projects, so I set everything up before I went to bed. That meant that the minute I got downstairs, I could read over the directions for the next step and do it.

Spangles and beads make a sparkly flower, and I have four of them now.

I wish you could pick up sparklies with a camera. Somehow it just doesn't come through. I have to say that I am very, very happy with the way these flowers look.

The next step is stitching the lovebirds in the center of the design. I'll start them tomorrow morning.

I have another class coming up at the end of this week. I think I may unpack the box this afternoon and get the linen mounted so that will be ready to roll on Thursday. I'll show that in the next day or so.

So many stitches!
