Well, after a long process that proceeded quite well but slowly, I completed the Hardanger lampshade for the book. I photographed it in my daughter’s room after she helpfully cleaned off her desk for me. (Thank you The Reader!)<\/p>\n

And with the completion of the lampshade, that brings to an end the sewing and embroidery for “Early-Style Hardanger”, apart from a few more small samples. I actually feel quite lost. I have nothing to sew. I’d like to get started on the embroidery for the next book (Yes Paula! The NEXT book!) but I will not allow myself to start anything new until this one is done.<\/p>\n

Embroidery is what I do in my down time. I feel lost without something to do with my hands. This afternoon I’ve been reading a wonderful book called “The Unlikely Voyage of Jack de Crow” by A J Mackinnon. It is a most enjoyable read! I learned of the book after hearing a rollicking interview<\/a> with its author, Sandy Mackinnon, who is surely one of the best storytellers I’ve ever heard. And the book is just as entertaining.<\/p>\n

However, it isn’t embroidery. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

So now I just need to finally get this book finished so that I can start something new! There are many things on my list, and the next book is just one of them. I wasn’t actually planning to write another book for a while as there are a few other things I want to do instead for a bit. But then an idea planted itself in my head, almost fully formed, and I had to agree (with myself, of course!) that it was a very good idea.<\/p>\n

But that’s getting ahead of myself. First things first, and in this case, that means finishing off “Early-Style Hardanger”…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
