Today’s mini project was letterlocking some notes to put in packages to friends (part of a silly mail game.)

Oh, and stir-fry. :green_heart:

Well I had kind of a down day, but did manage to thread wrap this temari base (the core was already done) - I definitely would not have done this otherwise, but I wanted to have something to show here. :yarn:

I imagine wrapping is quite meditative and soothing…what a beautiful color!

It did let my thoughts kind of float while my hands were busy, which was nice!

Last night I worked more on my Godzilla cross stitch. I am finally working on Godzilla so it’s going good! It’s been a lot of fun. I have done a couple little cross stitches before but this is much bigger.

Yes! Quick shot while still hanging to dry:

I also did a pile of scraps and a couple little bags:

Blue/green definitely dominated. I love the way the tied ones came out (2 on left). I wish I’d tied them all now!

I quite like the ones on the right! They look like they would be wonderful for any kind of sky, space, galaxy project…white embroidery would be lovely on them as well!

Beautiful…but still not going to go into snow country to try this! :rofl: Is there such a thing as sand dyeing?

Finished hand sewing my new pillowcase.

Inventory of my threads running low on most used colors.

Went to shop for threads, ordered glass beads online instead.

Adult coloring book Enchanted Fairies came in the mail today and new to me coloring pencils Black Edition - Faber Castell. So instead of more crafts did some coloring.

Went for another try to shop for threads ended up at PaperBlanks Sale could not resist.
