Yay! A post about something other than my yard! Last week I attended a wonderful Craft-Tea party at my friend Christina’s house up in Seattle and I had to think of something to bring. My crafting has been pretty much nonexistent of late. I am not sure why, but perhaps Anita Blake Vampire Hunter has something to do with it. I have been carting this Aunt Martha peacock pattern around for years (so long that now it’s a “retired” pattern!) and finally decided to start it.  It’s made me remember how much I love embroidery. It’s one of those things that I keep coming back to, but get lured away from by the temptations of more complex projects like woodworking, or something equally complicated and expensive that I never end up doing. I am planning on making this piece into the skirt of a sundress and it’s actually coming a long quite quickly, which is nice. This project is also an exercise in finishing things, which I am notorious for not doing, so I am extra motivated.
