  3. CW: Cross-stitched C-word

    Finally, I finished "Cunt" (my own design made on flosscross.com)! Gotta flatten it, but all the stitches are done!
    It was very fun to do and I am excited to start something new!

  5. One of my work-friends strongly recommended going to the charity shops while I'm in London on vacation (they are, indeed, very different from thrift shops in Canada!) and I found an absolute TREASURE: 4 balls of genuine wool/alpaca yarn for £10 altogether (they were marked at £3/ball but the boys at the counter insisted on only taking a ten since I was getting 4 of them). No cute new dresses or the like (I did try a few things on but nothing seemed like I'd get real wear out of it), but this one find makes the 3-ish hours spent going through a half-dozen shops MORE than worth it.

  6. Everytime I think about not going to crochet club because I'm too tired after work, but I go anyway because "I need to get out more" and every time I prove myself right and have a great (and ultimately) more relaxing time than if I'd gone hone to watch TV.

  7. This afternoon it took me 3 hours to do most of (not quite all) the cutting out for a dress. I'd never make it through on #sewingbee!

    Admittedly it's stripes, so I had to cut out the pieces individually rather than in pairs, but still.
