A Ghastly Maiden, Mother, Crone

2018 has brought  with it a stitching curse! Projects do not  entertain for more than a day, new  starts must be restarted, and WIPs  develop fatal flaws (like  drastically different tensions). 

I searched for an hour for the Mira I wanted yesterday for hermit and stitch to no avail, so in my frustration I picked up At the Met.
900 stitches later... Could the curse be broken?

With every pull of the needle I thought how great would it look in my future craft room with the art I received from the Crone for Christmas! The Maiden, Mother and Crone Ghastlies inspired! 

Better pictures to come... The Maiden

Beyond Excited!!!

I may have to open an etsy store just to afford it, but the Singer Heritage is finally mine!

Still here Stitching

Just not crosses!
I have been working on making project bags, but am still struggling with the pesky binding! The "beta bags" are being used to organize my 40 odd projects and I have been shocked by what I have found!

Patterns long forgotten (like Minerva here), extra needles, wrist supports, and snap frames (all on my to buy list), and even fully kitted projects that I have bought already. Twice kitted! The truely gut wrenching is the bags of fancy floss with no discernible pattern! Why!? Organization is long overdue! The Maiden
