Well I did it! The Town of Halloween is finished! I am so happy - now I can start another project that has been waiting patiently for my attention. I was a bit worried about the staining I did on the linen as it looked a bit blotchy, but with all the stitches in place it looks pretty good - just a second while I pat myself on my back ..
.. onto some non stitch news - Oh my gosh you would never guess what has happened! Drama! I tell you - one of my um.. er .. how do I put this? Oh heck who cares! One of my Boobys has deflated - well I can't say that can I? it's not a balloon .. okay one of my boobys has sprung a leak and is rapidly shrivelling down to .. well you get the picture. So one big one - one little one, not going to work so well for me. I've ordered myself some more - some nice big wobbly jelly like ones this time, had enough of those saline filled plastic baggies - I mean really those things never look good, and I would know I already have in my second pair - useless sloshy little things, so this time I'm going to make Dolly Parton proud and buying myself some big guns! Hope they pass through customs - I wonder what gets written on the declaration form? Anyways I am booked to go in for surgery in 2 weeks so wish me luck!

ReplyDeleteThe finish looks great, and good luck with that surgery! As someone 'naturally blessed' with more than I wish to have in that department, I wish I could just share some of mine with you LOL But good luck!
ReplyDeleteGreat finish!! Congrats :D
ReplyDeleteHope everything goes well with your surgery!
Awesome finish Amanda!! You did a great job on the staining too. I've been afraid to try staining any of my finishes.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your surgery. I was one of those who was blessed with an overabundance on that area. I actually had a reduction several years ago and rid myself of persistent backaches.
It looks great! It is in "my to be stitched" pile as well.
