So much to do! such little time as the days count down to the start of the ANG Seminar in San Antonio. For starters, I am just adding the finishing touches to these ornaments that were designed just for this seminar by What’s the Point? I am writing a little stitch guide to go along with them too as inquiring minds always want to know what thread is this? what stitch did you use?

Needle Deeva is sending some of her hearts too, the ones that I stitched and have written stitch guides. I was busy packing those up yesterday under the careful supervision of the feline children. I have a few others from Deeva that are coming along too and I just need to print the guides. Maggie’s and Ewe and Eye canvases need to be priced and I will be picking up a few Laurel Burch canvases too before I leave. Anybody want to come by and help? Please, pretty please?

Laundry is high up on the to do list along with packing and more packing. I have piles all over the place, very important needlepoint related items which always seem to get packed first, clothes and assorted sundry items that also need to come with me. Even though I have been to seminar many times, I am especially excited about this one! What a great destination along the River Walk and close to the Alamo. The Margaritas! The Mexican Food! ooh the main reason for going…my class for 5 days with 4 awesome teachers. I hear the shops including but not limited to The Yarn Barn of San Antonio, The Needle Works in Austin and Needle House which is setting up the shop at the seminar have been busy planning and getting ready for us for months.

I have allot of stitching that is calling my name with Deco Kitty consuming most of my time right now. The Halloween Hearts are patiently waiting for me to get back to them and oh the Needle Deeva Easter Egg House, but I still have a few months for that. Two new projects for different destinations await my flying fingers. There will be lots of files in my inbox for me too for the next issue of Needlepoint Now when I get back.

The plants need to be watered and the orchids tended too along with a little housework. Kids I am sorry to say that we will need to vacuum later today as I need to clean up a pound or two of cat hair that clings to the rugs. Other than that, that is all I have to do…phew!

Hands down this is AlleyCat’s favorite spot for her catnap! this box has been hanging around for a few years, as I don’t have the heart to recycle it. and until next time…keep on stitching
