my life in stitches

well, i think there’s some improvement in my edging stitching. maybe not marked but definitely some. worked on it tonight during rehearsal for into the woods, and i think it’s finally all coming back to me. (i have 16 words - not lines but words - in tonight’s rehearsal page span, so there was plenty of time for stitching.) (thanks, jude, for the reminder about rolling the edge under before stitching. i’d plumb forgotten to do that.) it’s not perfect, true, but may i never do absolutely perfect stitching. decided to leave the awkward, clumsy, just-starting-out stitches in, though. they are at annelle’s name - annelle as in steel magnolias - and somehow awkward stitches that haven’t yet hit their very own rhythm somehow fit.

p.s. okay, i cheated. made the picture a little on the fuzzy size cause stitches look better that way.

    looking at the picture and kinda wishing I knew a way to attach a ‘fuzzy mode’ to the mirrors in this house…

    oh photo editing, quick makeovers and convenient fibs… ha, fuzzy mirrors, is this a club?

    jude: photo manipulation = convenient fibs, mostly. and yes, i’m thinking fuzzy mirrors would make a swell name for a swell club. just imagine the club’s statement of purpose.
