Before we get to embroidery please let me indulge myself because I can't contain my excitement. I was up before the crack of dawn this morning, showered, clothed and sat at my station ready for 9 o'clock, limbering up my typing fingers, warm up exercises completed. At precisely 9.08 a.m. I secured these which it transpires sold out in less than 30 minutes. (all 130,00 of them) I am still doing my happy dance as we speak. Thank you, thank you, thank you....I want to kiss someone. I want to kiss everyone.
OK, I'm over it.....embroidery. I have stitched and stitched my pin pillow bling cloth. I have come to a halt because I am waiting for something, another titivation material that the postman is keeping me waiting for. It is different since you saw it last, there are more beads, there is more silver kid leather, there are oodles more bullion loops and French knots. As I was in the mood for bling last night I picked up the original cloth, the piece that started this obsession and worked some more on that. There are circles on that surface now, yes circles.

Happy days. Bling and mud.....
