Back To Embroidery

 This morning I was up, played a bit, and went back to bed. Before I did, I wrote a piece in the kingdom chat letting them know how ticked I was that because I didn't spell out the name, and put "..." they assumed I said, "@%$!" which I didn't. I let them know who wrong that was to go after someone over spelling. I don't know it if will help - but it made me feel better and I went back to bed. I slept another 2 hours. lol 

When I did get up and become part of this world, I had to get my stuff ready for my zoom meeting with Debbie Goff. She was reviewing the flowers I forgot how to do. We spend an hour on zoom, and I really enjoyed chatting with her. She was in Japan too. It was fun to talk about where we lived and where she lived. We got down to business. 

We went over how to do the moss in this piece. This is the first one, and I think it could be better, but like we both agreed on, was that live plants are not the same. All are different, some pretty, some not. In this case, not, but I'm okay with it. I will do it tomorrow at embroidery. I have about 20 of them to do in that area. 

Then we went over the star flower. I had the stars done, but wasn't sure what to do with the bullions. She showed me how to add the beads at the tip and finish the bullions. I like this part. I wanted them to lay down together but they spread out. I have a few more of those to do as well. I'm really doing pretty good on this piece. I will finish up this soon, I hope. Maybe, just maybe, I'm back to enjoying embroidery. Time will tell. I do want to get this piece done. 

After that, I chatted online with a couple friends. Then I did a couple Christmas cards. I need to do more but will do that later as well. I also need to add the balls to the tree. May do that tomorrow as well. After doing 4 Christmas Cards, I went back to playing games and watching the Seahawks play. Not impressed. Packers were good but if Seahawks were paying attention they could have won. UGH. 

It turned out to be a good day for me. I got stuff off my chest, and I enjoyed working on my embroidery. What can be better than that? That's Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
