journaling

Wednesday, July 02, 2008

I don't think that I have ever mentioned it here, but I also like to needlepoint. Always in the summer. Mostly because it is one of those things that is easy to transport.  And it just doesn't seem as hot as my yarn.

I recently purchased a project that I just had to share.
They are sold by AMH design, as kits (or not) and make it super easy because you have everything that you need put together for you.  Two needles, a threader, scissors, the fibers, and the journal.  
You can also buy just the journal, and choose your own colors, from your own stash.  I recommend buying one kit first.  Therefore you have a pattern to follow.
I bought one kit.  And one journal.  My sister came to town, and we chose colors, from my stash, for our non-kitted journal.  Yikes, some organization would help.
I purchased the canvas from a fabulous store, Pins and Needles.  (They sell needlepoint AND yarn.  How great is that?)
This is the one my sister made.  
The one I made for Libby.
And the one I made for myself.  
100 unlined blank pages.  I love unlined.  And I love blank.  
Just waiting to be filled with lists, ideas and thoughts.
It's July already.  Slow down, summer.
