Inspiration and Hooking

I haven't cross stitched in years

too many to count

I've tried but my eyes aren't up to it

then came floss tube on YouTube

because I've seen all crime and murder shows

twice

once I found Brenda and the Serial Starter

I knew I was in trouble

the stash above is 2 of my 4 orders

so...

my plan is to try stitching some smalls

and adapting some patterns to hooking

let me know if you have a favorite 

floss tube channel

 Started this one the other day

I'd drawn at least 4 other designs on this linen

the border was already hooked...

my family is visiting for a week 

 I needed to some hooking to keep me calm

I'm the youngest sister 

62 to their 70 and 73

they still sort of boss me around

and question all my decisions...

This is the first log cabin I've hooked

if I remember correctly

19 x 12.5

pattern available on linen

The world has become such a heartbreaking place

I look for the little joys each day.

I count my friends first

Hooking and Stitching

this is as far as I got yesterday

using strips from the worm baskets

out of colors I want to use from here on in

 personal challenge to finish hooking

without cutting another strip

Inspiration:

 

from New England

1920-1930

love those faces

 

haven't stitched on naything in ages

maybe even since Mom passed in May

log cabins are a perennial favorite

cutting some strips this morning

to put in my work tote

*****

also in my work tote is some car wax

we wax the x ray tables and slide boards

making it easier to move patients on/off from carts

since I'm obviously not keeping up with car waxing...

Wishing you a beautiful Sunday!
