I didn’t intend to go to the Guild sewing yesterday as my plan was to have a quiet day at home working on my cross stitching. I puttered around most of the morning doing some cleaning, some laundry and more organization in my sewing room. I settled in after lunch with my new Baubles pattern and was ready to go.

It didn’t go well and after taking out several stitches and starting over a few times I gave up in disgust and spent the afternoon working on my crochet project. I spent most of the evening working on that while I watched the last of “my” baseball teams get eliminated from the World Series.

But today was a new day. We got my new colour printer set up (thank you Elizabeth) but it took a lot longer than we expected. Pat did most of the set up as it will reside on the desk in the basement. I was able to print to it from my computer upstairs so I got my Baubles pattern printed in colour which is so much better.

Once that was sorted out I got my next chicken block and bonus traced onto freezer paper and the wool set aside for all the pieces. I’ll get the pieces pressed onto the wool tomorrow morning and that will be my sewing project for my Thursday afternoon sew and chat.

I volunteered to make lunch today and after that was done and eaten I got back to my cross stitching. It is going well so I’d better get back to it.
