Tiny Needle Tuesday

 Somehow I managed to get this piece of the flower border finished this week. It hasn't been easy doing much of anything since the floor refinishing adventure. We still haven't put anything back on it yet. It's like living in a storage facility. I can't find anything. I spend most of my day looking for stuff.



 I also managed to make another little loaf of unscented goat's milk soap. The clock is ticking on that can of powder and I don't want it to go to waste. I made even more today but I fancied this one up with color and some lemon fragrance. I am anxious to see how that one turns out because I felt very rusty working with lots of colors again. With soap everything is in the timing and I haven't done anything really fancy since early last summer when I made the fall soap.



The reason we haven't put anything back in the living area yet is because The Mister wants to paint and put down the molding while we have the space to work. Maybe by the end of the week we'll be able to get back to where we started-with the kitchen floor.

    That floor is beautiful. I understand The Mister's reasoning. It's so much easier when you have room to work.
    That soap looks like cream. Beautiful.
    Blessings,

    I hope you can get that molding up soon so that you can have some order return to part of the house!!!! The floor looks beautiful again!

    The floor is gorgeous! And your stitching is too. When I first looked at the picture of the soap, I thought you had taken a bite out of it - lol.

    Your stitching is beautiful.

    Sadly, I haven't picked up the teeny needle yet this year. My mojo is gone for now.

    The floor looks beautiful! You definitely should not miss the opportunity to paint and put up molding in an empty room. It is going to be so worth it when all is complete. Love the flowers added to the sampler. Sounds like fun experimenting with the soap since you have an ingredient with a shelf life expiring soon.

    Everything looks great! Stitching, soap and flooring. Hope you can get the room put back together soon so you can find your stuff. That storage area lifestyle is a hard way to live.
