I'M FREE!!!

Was that loud enough? Did you hear that in Australia? :)

It's only temporary freedom, of course, but I'm home and don't have to go back to work until Monday! I'm planning on taking part in a virtual SAL tonight on the 123 board, so maybe I'll take a nap in order to prepare. I have no idea yet what I'm going to stitch. Perhaps I can finish (or come close) Liberty Sampler if I do some marathon stitching tonight and later this weekend. It would be great to have that big project under my belt.

Another cool development -- I talked to my sister earlier in the week and I may be visiting her in Seattle in August! I've never been there. We were trying to get together in Gettysburg in September, and one of her work friends has a sister in Baltimore (my sis is in San Francisco) and they were also trying to get together. So, we're going to see if all four of us can do a sister's vacation in Seattle. I met her work friend, as she picked me up at the train station in Baltimore a year or so ago. I think this could be fun. We'll see. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much as their schedules can be crazy. I probably have the easiest schedule to work around, at least this time of year.

Will be updating photos this weekend

Last week I got a lot more done on Skeleton Crew and this week I've been working on Garden Verses. She wasn't on my list, but I saw her there and hadn't worked on her for a while and she was calling me, so I took her out. She's coming along nicely.

I'll post pictures tomorrow night after I've put more work into her. I'm taking part in a virtual stitch-in on the 123 board on July 3, so I'll see what I can do that night. I also need to figure out what I'm working on for the Mirabilia stitchalong next weekend. I haven't paid attention to those weekends in a few months and do enjoy them. Let's see, July is "Mirabilia Holiday in July" weekend. I'm not sure that I have anything that fits, but I'll check. I'm sure I have enough WIPs that I can make something fit, although it's awfully tempting to use that as an excuse to start the Christmas Elf Fairy, or whatever the heck it's called. Must. Resist. Temptation.
