back to normal

Things feel like they are getting back to normal. I'm in the office and was able to do some stitching on the train this morning. Here is my progress with Boo Pumpkin from last year's Halloween Just Cross Stitch. I have the little charm that goes with it and it's going to be so cute. I'm not sure if I will have time to turn it into an ornament before Saturday but just think how far ahead I am for next year! :-)

Yesterday Julie M asked what linen I used for yesterday's finis, Spooky Tree. It was a 28 count Gingham Linen called Light/Grey Straw that was a special dye job from Weeks Dye Works. It was the linen used for BBD Loose Feathers called Peacock Pinkeep. I had a small hunk left over and I used it up.
