Tiny Needle Tuesday

 

Needless to say I haven't had much stitching time this week. It's been never a dull moment around here. On Saturday I did get a few minutes to work on the green mound Cow Pile is balanced on. 

I got another few minutes while the sun was shining to stitch the first of the three pink sheep that go in this section. I've stitched a lot of sheep in my time and this one doesn't look much like a sheep to me. It looks like a lumpy pink blob but I'll hold my judgement until I get all three of them done. 

I spent a few minutes downstairs the night before The Mister's surgery and got two more sails on my big ship. I have no intention of stitching all the sails from the pattern. I'm only going to do the ones necessary. I've seen plenty of tall ships come down the bay and none of them have as many sails as this designer thinks they need. 

And.....after all I've been through this week I decided I deserved a treat so Hen Peck is finally mine. The minute it came back in stock it was on its way here. Of course, I have to finish Cow Pile first. 

I also have to wait for the fabric to show up. I never remember what I am using for this critter series but after some sleuthing I now know it's this. Hopefully, I won't forget because I still have Sheep Heap and Goat Load to stitch.
