Rusty. With a side of stash.

So, Monday I had the whole house to myself- Husband and The Kids were out for the day together. I had made up my mind that I was going to get a true-blue day off. No work at all. I made, well not so much "made plans", but "estimated" a movie, a book, possibly a nap, and maybe sitting outside with a book, would be the plan.

Here's what happened....

I enjoyed the peace and quiet of not being asked a single solitary thing and making food when and what I wanted at what ever time I wanted. Played on the computer a bit (farrrrrmmmmville!). I watched a movie, called "World's Greatest Dad" - great movie by the way. I had wanted to watch "Taming of the Shrew" (also in my Netflix queue) as it went with my suddenly intense desire to stitch something. I shared this need to stitch with two of my stitchie friends and hours later had watched said movie and started on the Jar SAL from SanMan Originals.

Oh what a riot! :

Ok, where are my scissors? Oh that's where I kept those. Uh huh, I must have had a pencil, oh yeah right with the rest....... It took ages to get started with cut fabric (oh so rusty on fabric sizes, as in how much would be needed for a project X big). Printed of charts. And all the other little details. But OH DIDN'T if FEEL GOOD once that needle started pulling thread through the fabric!

I am one happy girl now!

Yesterday (Tuesday) I opened the door to have a box handed to me. YIPPEEEEEE!

Thank you so much Jenna for my lovely mojo goodies! Kitting up one of my favorite designers, with my most favorite colors- purple and green- and the card! Pansies! I am just blown away.

And the needles were absolutely fantastic too, as the one I found and had started using was tarnished somehow.... Lol. :]

I have missed my stitchie friends.
I have missed stitching.

I have missed collecting and mailing things to people.

It's been about 2 years! Sheesh.

My rusty-self will take and post a photo of my progress at a later date. Not of the back though, yikes! My mojo may have returned but I am seriously lacking in skills now. :P
