Just an update...



A few noteworthy things I wanted to share with my readers ;)

First, is that my previous layout titled: "Me: A-Z" got placed on the 'Most Wanted' list over at CSI...again! I am so flattered! It means so much to me to have the support and words of encouragement from like-minded artists. So thank all of you that left sweet comments for me and picked my layout for a feature!
Second, to continue the red flower theme, check out what I've just finished cross-stitching...
Flamenco 12" x 18" Counted Cross Stitch Kit
No. 2435 Marilyn Robertson




It took me about a year to complete, since I was working on it only when I was watching movies with my hubby. It's such a brainless, repetitive task that's it's extremely therapeutic to do. Another benefit is that I don't feel guilty for wasting time watching TV if I'm multitasking. This is proof positive that a stitch at a time, while not seemingly much, adds up to a completed project. 
*Now that I'm done with this, I need another project to do while watching movies. Can anyone recommend something? What do you do while watching TV? 

This is how it would look framed if done according to the kit project card. Do you like this framing?

Thanks for all your input!
