Hi everyone! I can't believe it's NOVEMBER already. It's the time of year when I think, "Hmmm, must be bedtime" and then I look at my watch and it's only 7:15. And it's only going to get darker... Anyway, here's where I was last time:
Three weeks later, here's where I am now.
Sometimes I stop stitching right at the column edge, and sometimes I keep going while I still have floss on my needle. This last time I kept stitching in a lot of colors. That will make the next column faster. Who knows, maybe I'll do a column and a half? Assuming I can stay up past 7:15, that is.
Our next check in is in three weeks. Until then, join me and check out what my fellow stitchers --

There have been several times this week when I have said to my husband "How is it only 8pm?" I am surprised that you can cross-stitch those dark blues at night. This is looking so beautiful. Enjoy your stitching!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cathie! And I didn't realize how dark that picture looked! But with good lighting we shall persist.
DeleteThe challenge for me has been working at my computer with the sky barely getting any brighter mid day and I felt ashamed having to turn on the lights just to avoid going blind. Winter mode has switched on very suddenly. You're making good progress with the starry night love it
ReplyDeleteWe gave in and turned on the heat for the first time a couple of weeks ago. As I type at 2 in the afternoon I have the light on because it's already dim in the kitchen. I love autumn and winter but the darkness is difficult.
Deleteyes it's dark here by 5.30pm and days will only continue getting shorter as the end of the year approaches. Let's hope we've all got good lamps, and can enjoy many a long evening of stitching.
ReplyDeleteGood lamps and a blanket!
DeleteOur dog, Bandit is still hauling himself off to bed at 7:15! We try to keep him up with us, but he starts whimpering about 8:00 and just can’t make it yet!
ReplyDeleteYou are making excellent progress on this piece, it is going to be so fabulous!
Our cats do not wish to participate in Daylight Savings Time. But the plus is that, with it being colder, they are much cuddlier!
