In the words of the Queen song...
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust (yeah)
But what bit the dust? Needles. While I was stitching at my table, I managed to drop a needles on the floor. Then, around 5 minutes later, ANOTHER one fell. That is TWO needles that bit the dust, otherwise called my living room floor, that I couldn't find! Sigh. Sigh. Yes I did two sighs since it was two needles. They were both blunt needles so now I need to get some more blunt tip needles. Still have enough sharps but my blunts are dwindling fast.
I was working on my blackwork when I dropped them. I would show you the progress pix but next week I get the last two sections so I will get them stitched and then show you the finished piece. By this time next year, I might have enough blackwork to put into a four patch quilted wall hanging. I told Dan yesterday that I want to get in 2025 another rod to go over the couch so I can hang up one more wall hanging.
Yesterday was Dan's and my Thanksgiving since he will be going out of state on the day after Thanksgiving to visit friends. Yesterday was his birthday so we just combined the two events into one. I just gave him some fruitcake, he loves fruitcake, since I have been cooking and giving him dishes for his birthday fort the last two weeks. I couldn't have him over on his birthday and not give him something. LOL. I wonder if he will take it with him on Friday when he leaves and has to drive between 4 and 6 hours. It is supposed to be cold so he will probably stay at a hotel for a couple of nights so he isn't camping outside. There is one that he usually stays at that is pretty good, is within 20 minutes of where his friends live, and he gets a military discount.
I hope to have the Family redwork block finished by the weekend. I will post a pix when I get it finished. In the meantime, I hope everybody has a great Thanksgiving.
Hugs to all and my holiday meme today is:
