Will we ever meet again?
.jpg)
Sure. But this break will do well for us both.
I used the 3721 for the border flowers. Still prefer the brighter pink I originally chose, but it didn't work where used in the body. She has been poked and frogged and cussed and poked again, she can rest for a while. Large samplers are not calling to me as before, especially with a border like Jane's. I have several new smalls from market and an order coming Monday with several more (not samplers).
Jane is back in her bag, but on the bottom tray of my station in case I feel the urge. The added trays are wonderful. No, this does not pull over my large lap, it sits right next to the chair, keeping several rings of thread, current chart, doodad supplies, and now a few other projects and charts very handy. If I go to another chair or room, the station comes with me. Everything I need to stitch is there, DMC book, needles, scissors, extra floss bags and rings, clips, ruler, glasses, mouth and eye gels, tape for fuzzies. Also easy to hide in another room when necessary. I have two hoops, they can slide into the tray or hang from the side hooks. I set the current project on the tray top and have various covers to throw over. Can you tell how much I love it?
It has rained for days, lawn is now lake. Right now, terrible winds with the downpour knocking off more branches which the yard was cleared of!!
Tonight, floss tube.
I hope your week went well, and the weekend will also.

Oh gee! That brace looks like an instrument of torture to me!! I'm currently being drawn to small pieces in just one color - this is not like me at all!! LOL
Hi Marly: Love the header photo, lovely very lovely.
I really like this design.
I am happy you finally found something that will work for your knee, its a shame that in the year 2024 that there is not a solution for any kind of pains, they can transplant a heart lung reattach limbs but getting rid of pain seems to escape the doctors.
Have an amazing week.

I'm glad the stitching station trays are working well. It's nice you can keep Jane nearby to pull out easily if you want to stitch a bit on her instead of having to go find where you put her in the stash. I'm very happy that you are so happy with it!
That brace looks quite...Serious. Industrial. Robotical. Heavy (hope not!). Yet comfortable, at least as comfortable as a brace can be. I bet with the hinge, it's a lot more comfortable than elastic wraps getting bunched up behind the knee.
You made wonderful progress considering all the adjustments...probably best to give it and
yourself a rest for a while ...Hope the new brace with added support works out. I would imagine the weather you are experiencing doesn't help...drat that barometer.... Your tray
set-up is inspired and inspiring. Hope your days become more ease/sun-filled, Marly dear.
Would love to see a photo of your stand!
Well, you've put other big girls away and they have found the light of day again so I have hope for Jane. I am forcing myself to finish up a large-ish (for me anyway) piece...it's a reproduction mourning "sampler" but no motifs...just words, monochromatic, and mostly 1x1. Losing interest...and not impressed with my linen choice. Why can't I ever come to those realizations until it is too late to turn back. Sorry to hear about your weather....Today we were in the high 60's but it was really windy and, unfortunately, I spent the day rotating between bed and sofa so didn't get to enjoy any of it. Not sure what I got or where I got it from, but it was nasty...just starting to feel a bit better, but my head is still pounding and can't think about food. ~Robin~
Time outs can work wonders! You'll come back to Jane with fresh eyes. I love your stitching tray set-up, Marly... So glad it's working for you the way you wanted. This weather--just crazy. So... much... rain! And yet, today is delightful--wish every day could be sunny and in the 70s :) But, then again, if all the days were the same we wouldn't truly appreciate these beautiful days. We had a lot of branches down from those crazy winds, but nothing major. Good luck with the injections and the brace. Sure hope you get some relief. ♥
