I managed to get some more new things in the mail.
My mini white (blanc) cone. This is about half the size of the black one I got but it was the only white one Amazon had.

Then I received some redwork designs which I can turn into mug rugs for Christmas presents. I might give them out at the office. Not sure yet on that. That assumes that I will get them done in time. I need, therefore, to have some red thread. Gee, guess I will need to get another small cone from Amazon. They had a dark Christmas Red on a cone so I ordered that. Amazon knew what they were doing when they gave me a store card. LOL.
Behind that cone of white you can see a close up of the ruler that I ordered. It's called the T-shirt Transformation Rules by June Taylor. There is a video on YouTube on how to use it. It is good for three sizes and you can use those corner slot to mark you corners, etc.
My 16 1/2" ruler hasn't come in yet but it will. I needed larger sized square up/rulers/templates for t-shirt quilts. I might make larger blocks once I get these too, who knows. I will have to get back into quilting first. That might happen this weekend. I'm not sure yet. I have been known to change my mind at the last minute. If not I'll work more on the cross stitch.
Speaking of cross stitch, I read on one of my Facebook groups about somebody who uses their hair clips to hold the extra fabric that you aren't stitching on. I tried it and it wasn't too bad. I think I'll get some more, perhaps from Dollar Tree, and use them with my Mini Owl HAED. This is what it looks like on The Holy Grail-Left. You can also see my progress in this picture.
That's about it for this entry. Have a great day/night!
Happy Stitching
