I guess I should have said what it was I was taking out but I was thinking I had posted a picture, :) I had done the owl, 3 motifs and a little house at the top of the piece I am working on. It's Witches Hollow from Primitive Needle. I had started the owl above the moon that has the 2 bats instead of above the bat on the left and I didn't realize it until I had done all that other and started wondering why there was so much space between those motifs and what I had already stitched before.
Oh well, not the first time I have taken something out and certainly won't be the last time.

Well, it took me 2 nights to take all of that out but I finally finished and restarted the owl last night. I got the wings and bottom part of the center done.
I won't be stitching tonight since I am captain of a team for Relay 4 Life for the American Cancer society and the relay is tonight, well actually 18 hours. I am having another team member be there at the beginning though because it starts at 6:00 tonight and my niece is also graduating from college with a Bachelor's of Science degree in Elementary Education at the same time. Plus it's about 1 1/2 hours from where the relay is. I am just going to go to that then come back and change clothes in the restroom of the site of the relay.

Well, I started last night picking out some of what I put in on Witches Hollow Saturday plus all I had put in Sunday and then Monday night. I started that darn owl at the top just above the moon that has the 2 bats rather than above the bat on the left and then after finishing him I started stitching motifs going down the right side when I thought "hmmm, there sure is a lot of space between these. It took me a bit to figure out where I had messed up. That owl was not easy to stitch either, I hate it when designers use two symbols almost identical and most of him is symbols ) and (. I had put it in there to stay evidently because I spent over 1 1/2 hours last night just taking out the left wing and center of the owl.
I got Spot back from the framer on Saturday and I just love him. Here is a picture of him and also a picture of the wall where he is hanging in his place of honor.

I had started back to weight watchers and despite spending the weekend with my single/thin daughter that doesn't cook and going out to eat quite a few times I still managed to lose 2 lbs last week. I go to the meetings on Monday nights. I was really excited because I was just hoping for 1 lb.
Stitched some on Witches Hollow also. I hope to have that finished this coming week. I'm ready to move on to another project, but I have tried the more than one project at a time and it just doesn't work for me because I tend to end up just stitching on one. LOL

I am already soooo excited for July to get here. I registered yesterday along with 2 of my friends to go to the Blackbird Design (which I absolutely love) class at Silver Needle in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We aren't but about a 4-5 hour drive so we will leave on Friday morning and come back on Sunday but it will still be a GREAT time.
I didn't get any stitching done last night, I finished sorting NPI floss and put it in bags, added another blog link here and did a few other things around the house then went to bed early.

Finally back again
It has been even longer than I thought since I have posted on here. Lost my information how to get on and also a lot has happened since then, including a new position at work after 11 1/2 years. Anyway, thought I would see if I could get back to posting.
I have finished a LOT of projects since I posted here. You can see those at my photo sites. I am working on Witches Hollow from Primitive Needle right now and have it almost done. I have a LOT of projects lined up to do, most of which are BIG projects. You can the pictures of my projects by going to the my photo links at the bottom of the page.
