frog, frog, frog ....

Well, do you remember about the left pink ribbon that I told you about a few post back? I had told you I had a problem and I gave up working on the left, thinking I'll fix the problem when I'll be working on the little boy's head and his arm ... Wrong! It doesn't work that way ... Last night I stitched the arm of the boy and here I am: there is a problem around the area of the pink ribbon and I can't figure tout where and why !!! When I double check, everything seems to be at the right place so why is it not as it should be??? It is driving me crazy ... Can't I just throw it by the window and have the guys working with the scaffoldings deal with it? I don't know what should I do : I'd like to ignore it and just keep stitching "around" the mistake but I can't because there is a dark area between the 2 little guys ! This dark area is important! And what if it was a sign I need to start a new project? who said it is too easy? Well, maybe she doesn't need a pink ribbon, right? Ribbons are a little bit of fashion lately

Last night I couldn't fall asleep - again - so I went out of the bed and came to the living room to read a little bit. I chose the world of cross stitching and I checked again the 3 little mice by Magaret Sherry. Then a crasy idea came to my mind (only those come to you at one the morning!) I thought I could just cut the fabric I am currently stitching the angels and use this part for those mice !!! (the design is stitched on hand dye fabric!!! ) The fabric is too big but I'll cut it only after it is completed !

This morning esteban went to the daycare center to get used to it again. Back to school is on monday and he'll go back full time. Vacations are over ... He didn't want to pee there and waited to be home. Then we went to the mall where he accepted to pee in the public restroom!!! Well, of course, he peed a little bit in his pant as you have to rush to the only restrooms they have there ...

Yesterday, I received one of the 2 packages from Silkweaver I was expected. There were 2 solos! One is for my petal fairy with some peach in the fabric ( 28 ct jazlyn) . I think it will be perfect! (of course, I checked last tuesday solo's and there were more peach kind of fabrics I could have used but I had already oredered that one ... ) I also oredred a small solo ( 11 X 12 ) in greenish colors (28 ct lugana). The 9X13 solo is in the blue/purple shades (32 ct lugana). And my free fabric is a 9X13 Daffodil in 28 count opalescent lugana. I never stitched anything on yellow. Has anyone stitched something on yellow fabric??? I should have received the other one today as Tracy sent them the same day. I just got the custom form so I called the post office and talked to a very nice man (rare enough to be noticed ) I had the number of the package on the form so he checked for me and was able to trace it down !!! It went to another town and should be on his way back to me ... I still scare it could get lost in the way. Especially because it is the package that has a lot of small solos ... You know what the guy told me: " ah! you are one of this ebay buyer, aren't you? " Well, not this time

Yesterday we went to get the mini blinds for my living room french window. I can now see the workers but THEY can't see ME Today they mounted those scaffolding close to our balconies ... I think tomorrow i will start to see only scaffoldings ... How depressing ...
