It's Greek to Me

Hey Blog Buddies,
Did you ever feel that you were spending a little too much time on one project?  Did the shapes that you were stitching (and stitching and stitching) take on a life of their own, reminding you of other, entirely unrelated things?  Do your projects ever talk to you?

Well, that's about where I'm at right now.  Here are a few progress pics by way of explanation:

A week or so ago,

this is where I was at

on CT13 (the red Christmas tree).

Well, that's obviously the top of

a Greek architectural column.

Don't believe me??

...oh yeah!!

Here is my latest progress pic

from said project:

It should be apparent to anyone

that these are the snakes that Medusa

(from Greek mythology)

was condemned to wear

in place of hair.

Skeptical?

Color those snakes red

and you couldn't tell the difference!

"Hee, hee, hee," Southpaw cackles insanely.

My final progress pic

is of my Little Lady.

Thought I'd forgotten

about her, didn't you?

(So did she.)

At least she has feet now.

But you'll notice she still

doesn't have a mouth.

That's so she can't start

complaining at 2 o'clock in the morning,

"Hey you over there in bed.

Why aren't you over here

working on me?"

CT13 and I are going to take a little break.

It's going on hiatus because

last night I started stitching

(yes only just started)

my final holiday gift.

Now that's planning ahead!

Hope your projects have

nothing but nice things

to say about you!

Thanks for visiting!
