I am enjoying this canvas so much that I can’t seem to leave the Rainbow Birds alone for very long without stitching on it! I rewarded myself with after a tough day on the computer by stitching the night away. My plan of attack has been going back and forth between stitching on the plume on the middle bird and then stitching on the leaves. I also did do a little reverse stitching in the eyes and even though I got allot of suggestions, I will probably just restitch them following the stitch count on the first eye.

So you are wondering why did I have such a tough day yesterday? My pile of stitch guides is slowly dwindling down as I finally finished the ones that I needed for Ruth Schmuff and a few more for Needle Deeva. When I first started this blog, I was showing off little sneak peaks of what I was stitching for Ruth and after many classes at my favorite Apple store and help from Ruth herself I was able to complete the assignment.

I also spent what seemed like several hours going through threads, beads and stretcher bars for the hearts and the Easter House. It is amazing that I always seem to do this after I straighten up the house and what starts out as an organized day quickly turns into organized chaos. Even though I have lots of threads, I see a road trip coming up! I was very good and practiced some restraint and did not pull any threads yet for my Cat Night’s Out. Now yet is the optimum word and the mood could strike me at any time to look for threads for it!

How do you like my box of blueberries? and until next time…keep on stitching
