Molly would like to wish everyone a happy National Pet Day.
I have been hooking on my hit 'n miss rug. I am pretty bored with it, but I am afraid if I set it aside, it will become a long time WIP. 31 of 40 squares are done. The color is terrible in this picture but nothing seemed to work in getting truer colors.
I also started a little cross stitch piece. Not a sampler, which I prefer to stitch, but a sweet little piece nonetheless. I'm thinking ahead to that "C" holiday.
I have started walking down to Lake Erie each morning. (It's not like I am walking that far . . . lol! I only live a couple blocks away.) The lake has been extremely calm. It is good for the soul to be outdoors.
I was talking with a neighbor today that I don't often talk with. I mentioned that if I didn't have my "hobbies" I would be absolutely stark raving mad. She asked me if I did diamond dot. I told her I had heard of it but it was not something that interested me. She then showed me a couple of her projects. The part that cracked me up was when she said she thought it was a pretty expensive hobby and proceeded to say that the one kit cost $14.00!!! (And for the record . . . it was not a case of that is all she could afford.) Don't you wish you had a project (whether hooking, applique, stitching, etc) that only cost that? Each to her own.
