And the Fourth is Here

 We have had a quiet Fourth. I thought I would stitch all day, but all I did was a bit on All That Glitters.

I spent more time thinking about projects that I want to start. Of course I did, the minute I announce that I am going to focus on specific projects and get some things finished, the little devil on my shoulder starts whispering about all the goodies yet to begin. I have four or five projects from Tricia Nguyen I want to do,  a couple of Betsy Morgan's that have been calling my name, and a Rae Iverson project that's been aging in the stash. This doesn't include Jackie du Plessis' designs, which I'd already set up on my mental list of things to do sooner rather than later. And then there are a couple of Sherri Jones' workshop projects I'd love to finish. Do you see the problem?

The only thing that stopped me was the thought I'd need to sew linen to scroll bars.

And in other news: tonight we watched PBS's. special Fourth programming, coming from Williamsburg and celebrating our 250 years together. You may have noticed Williamsburg is one of my very favorite places on earth, and their production was just how I wanted to celebrate this very special anniversary of our country. Hopefully PBS will stream it somewhere if you missed it--it was well worth the time spent watching.

It made me hopeful for the next 250 years.
