i am now working on the home sweet home mario bro 1, but as you can see i the "burnt Orange" was wayyyy to bright, so i took it out and i plan to get something a little more brown then bright orange.

yesterday i went to get some more floss. I live in London Ontario and there is a great little cross stitch store called Thread and Needle. got a bunch of Floss for the project i will start when i get sick of doing the "home sweet home" one. Although i have a great idea brewing for some fridge magnets, but i will keep that for later.

I dont know about you but my cats love "supervising" me when i work on my projects. thought i would show some pictures of the little buggers and my new box i got too.

new box and the thread


\Grizwold and gabriel


Griz using Gab as a pillow. ushally they are crawling all over me, looking for a warm comfy spot were they can ketch the thread. lol

I'm so jealous, I'm in Sarnia, ON and we have no dedicated cross stitch store. Just craft stores that never seem to have the right stuff. I have to order in a lot of stuff. Maybe I should take a drive lol. It's only an hour after all.

home sweet home is coming along very nice!~ it's going to look awesome when it's done =D

Is there ever a wonder why all my projects have cat hair stitched in? =P
