Crazy wind and crazy rain

I'm just back from my daily long evening dog walk - what a weather! My umbrella was closing every minute and I was afraid it would break. Good thing that with my Ipod kept me entertained with some French podcasts (Stéphane Bern's Le fou du Roi and Bouvard's les Grosses Têtes) but I think Happy thought his owner had gone nuts. Indeed, he hates rain!!! Recently I discovered he doesn't have an inner layer of "fur" (my first dog that way!) and that must be the reason why he is so sentitive to water and cold. Brrrr....

The week has been sooooo busy but I managed to squeeze in some stitching. I worked till 6pm today, sent the job and still have to work a little bit more on the last part for tomorrow morning. I wish I could head to bed! I might stitch a bit though and get up at 5am to finish the job.

Here's yesterday's finish. My fingers were itching to do that one since some time and here it is. I think I'll send it to a finisher so it becomes a pillow. Love that one!


Four fat friends

Fabric: 25ct Sand Jobelan (Silkweaver)

Threads: my choice of WDW (Kudzu is ideal for tree leaves, I have to remember that!)


I had to work all night and by 3am, Tosca the Devil decided it's high time to reorganize part of my stash. See how busy she was!
