This morning, I enjoyed know I could sleep in. I actually did. We were laughing about me being able to sleep till 9 am yesterday. As a teenager, I would sleep till 1 or 2 pm on weekends. Then again, I stayed up till 1 or 2 am watching old movies I messed while we lived outside the US. I wanted to sleep till 10 am yesterday, but had to be up by 8 am. lol
Patrick and I walked the neighborhood and checked water meters. It was halfway dry, but some areas still had the rainwater there. Since we have been having rain for the last week or so. Today was the first in a week that it didn't rain at all. That took an hour. We did get our walking in though. Patrick then worked on the reports for the state. I watched "Marple" on BritBox.
While I was busy watching TV, I was stitching all day.
I worked on the gold area. It was easier to work on today. Not a mess like the rest of it. I was able to work on the Beard. I did have to take out some below the greenery on the left. I must have taken that out 3 x's because I had a "x" that was off. I couldn't figure out where, so kept stitching and taking out till I found it. I rolled the piece today to get more room to work on. AND to reach better. It's coming along pretty good. One of the embroidery gals was looking for this pattern, so I told her she can have this when I'm done. I don't play to do it again.
I do enjoy working on the piece. I'm getting a little excited about finishing this now. There are gold "x" around the piece, and I'm thinking I won't add that. It doesn't need it and I don't want the gold to show through on the piece in the front. When one runs a floss to another area that is 2" away, it tends to show through the fabric. I don't care for that. So, I'm thinking I'm not going to both with it.
As today went, it was a good day to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
