…though it doesn’t look like there’ll be much time for posting ’til the girls are back in school next week. Here’s a Christmas Eve picture for you
That’s so weird. I have a picture not unlike this one from a couple years ago where Clark is the screaming infant. Now, he’s just a dinosaur (hence the bizarre facial expression in the pictures).
Christmas was very nice. When we went to Barnes and Noble on Saturday to use our gift cards, I picked up this little book that I’ve been wanting for months.
It’s delightful. Abby and I are working on a couple of little sample designs on 4 inch hoops to learn the stitches.
I’m having visions of girls hand embroidering on cotton skirts dance through my head, made more practical by the acquisition of a new steamer we picked up last night using more gift cards. I couldn’t justify making cotton skirts before now as I totally don’t iron. But with that obstacle out of the way… I wanna sew some cotton skirts with the girls!

I totally have to get that book. I’m such a sucker for embroidery but I usually buy other people’s. Hope to see pics of your cotton skirts!

Ooooh, I have that book and love it! Embroidery exactly the way I like it. Hope you’ve been having fun with it.

Ooh, that book looks fun! (I do not need a new hobby, I do not need a new hobby, I do not need a new hobby…)
