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.

Happy Day

 Carmen has been sitting on the stand for weeks and weeks. Yesterday, I whipped off the fancy dishtowel that keeps the dust off, threaded up a needle, and stitched on her for awhile.

I restitched the leaves that I had to rip out and finished the rest of the leaves. It may not look like much, but it's filament silk on 45 count linen, so it takes me a wee bit longer to make visible progress.

But it made me so happy to work on this again!! Who knew a few stitches could do so much for ones attitude?
