though there was much taking up space on my to do list today, i stitched my way through the wait while daughter got her third iv this week. felt like a mini-vacation. (the stitching, of course, not the iv.) cretan stitch improving, me thinks. building sharp-edged chaos is the goal. interesting to stitch something that’s not nice, cute, orderly, or beautiful. interesting reactions from onlookers to something that’s not beautiful and orderly and cute and nice, too.
Very nice stitch. Isn’t it amazing how much faster time waiting for medical treatments passes when our hands are busy?
absolutely! stitch on!. i am behind on reading, why the iv?
hey you got a genuine grin from me thinking about “others’ reactions” as you sat there working. Truly – people do NOT know how to react to stitching that isn’t pretty and prim and just what’s to be expected. Plus (heh) I think I know the larger purpose of this work. And it’s brilliant…
