To Market, to Market I Go!

Birdie5

 

I am getting ready to head to the big D late tomorrow and am taking this other little birdie along with me! I experimented a bit with the feathers as I wanted them “poofier”…is that a word? Well I wanted them fuller in the front, so I used no couching stitches on them, only tacked them down in the back.

I usually always pick very early morning flights, so not sure what I was thinking when I selected this afternoon flight tomorrow. To meet up with the Deeva herself and all the NeedleDeeva canvases. Please come see us in Room 503. We will be there with bells on! Lots of new designs… Halloween designs and some special sale items. Come early and get ’em while they’re still in stock. Everybody loves a sale!

To market, to market I go to buy canvases, threads, books, new toys and more canvases, bags, more threads…well you get the idea.

There is one more bird that I am working on too, the one with the sunflower wing. I am still in the pursuit of the purr~fect feathers for her tail.

The yellow ones that I already have, the ones that came in the multicolored bag of feathers, sort of look soiled to me so I need to find others. Maybe some black ones, or elegant yellow or orange.

The canvases are ready for their travels as are 99% of everything else. I am still waiting for a delivery of a few more threads…which showed up late last night! What a sigh of relief and I will check them off and make sure everything is okay or I might be thread shopping!

Needlepoint, morning noon and evening! what could be better than this? I work on the computer in the daylight hours editing stitch guides and drawing stitches that you will see in the next Needlepoint Now for your stitching pleasure! In between this, there is time for taking pictures of my stitching adventures, Facebook and writing stitch guides for canvas that I am stitching for Needle Deeva, Maggie, Ruth Schmuff and others. Mostly needlepoint you ask? well we will talk about my cats Sylvester and AlleyCat, better known as "the brat". Of course I can't forget Felix who was the love of my life for over 14 years. He broke my heart as he departed for the Rainbow Bridge last year. Oh did I mention baseball?
