floss shortage :-)


I ran out of one of the two colors of silk floss tonight that I need to finish A Quaker Study. :-) Yes, I'm not so sad. :-) I was looking for a reason to put this aside for a couple of days (weeks?) and I got it. I called Drema today and ordered a second skein and I'm sure it will arrive by Friday but a break is good. I'm not sure what I'm going to pick up but I'd like it to be small so I can get it finished by next week so I can finish A Quaker Study sooner than later. I really am on the home stretch with this one. Just seven small, two medium and one large motif left and I'm done!

I'm so sorry you're not enjoying working on this beautiful design. What are you plans for it once you do finish it?

I guess I never realized you were such a one-at-a-timer.

Nice timing for a break. Then you can restart and just get it finished off ;)

It's definitely looking good!! And your little pug is SO cute. I'm generally not a pug person per se, but with yours, I've had to make an exception!! :)

How frustrating for you, Margie!! This is a stunning piece, and I can't wait for you to get the thread you need to finish!! :[ You do such beautiful work.
