Cross Eyed Cricket finish
Trucking right along on the UFO's. Managed to get this one stitched up during my Hercule Poirot marathon tonight. This makes two finished in one day and 19 UFO's finished so far, I think. I should try for 20! :)
At any rate, here it is:
Design: February Heart from Cross Eyed Cricket Leaflet #240 Peace
Designer: Cross Eyed Cricket
Fibers: DMC Art. 117 six strand floss in 224, 500, 503, 822, 3032, 3033, 3721
Fabric: 28 count Monaco by Fleur de Luce Hand Dyeds in Dark Honey Ale :)
Well, I'm off for now. Need to go grab another project out of the UFO Bin O' Shame. :)

Time For Tea
Christmas came a bit early this year to the house. The Hubmeister had wanted the new Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty and I had managed to make enough in cash tips to get it outright, so I went and bought it and gave it to him early. I just needed to do something nice for someone who I knew would appreciate it, because it's been one of those kinds of weeks at work, ya know?
When I gave it to him, he was happy and excited and then immediately asked me why I didn't buy something for myself. I laughingly replied that Gamestop doesn't sell the kinds of things I am interested in. I told him that if he really wanted me to buy something for myself, I'd see what Stitcher's Paradise would have in stock when I go to the Wednesday stitch in this week. I didn't quite make it that far, as I remembered seeing a tea cup at Barnes & Noble and wanted to get one. Last night I stopped by on my dinner break and instead of getting the lidded tea mug, I purchased the tea service for one! I even got the matching reusable shopping bag! :D I am so, so, so excited about it! And to do things up good and proper, I also bought some holiday tea and an Agatha Christie book, Hercule Poirot's Christmas! Woohoo!
Time for shopping notes and pics! :D
Editor's Note: All purchased at Barnes and Noble, with the exception of the cookies, which were purchased at Von's.
Tea Set: Fringe Studio in Holly Rose
Book: Hercule Poirot's Christmas by Dame Agatha Christie
Today is my Friday. All of my chores are completed for the week, which means I get to sit around all weekend and stitch! Woohoo! I am really, really hoping to get the Prairie Schooler Christmas Cabin finished this week instead of next. That would be quite the feather in my cap!
At any rate, I need to bolt for the door. Need to go get ready for work, so I can get my weekend started! :D
Hope everyone is having a wonderful week! :)
