Scrambled eggs (American English) or scrambled egg (British English) is a slang term for the typically leaf-shaped embellishments found on the visors of peaked caps worn by militaryofficers and (by metonymy) for the senior officers who wear them. It’s such a struggle to have TWO hobbies I love so much.Dutch Admiral Helfrich with British Air Marshal Brooke-Popham both wearing peaked caps with embellishments I’m writing this on Thursday afternoon and I want to sneak up to the sewing room and get a few things sewn before the bus comes with the kids. She started out on 28-count linen and ended up restarting on 40 count. I’m really glad I decided to stitch this one. Although I didn’t get a lot of progress done, it’s enough to move me along and closer to a finish!

I’m actually hoping to finish it this week. I am stitching on a 40-count Vintage Country Mocha with the color Raven. I ended up setting that aside and pulled out my Ye Old Crow Sampler by Heart and Hand. One good thing, the motifs are big so once I do get one done, I have a decent portion done. If I keep at this slow pace, I’m going to be at this for a long time. I don’t like to stitch something like this that involves lots of counting with stitches so irregular when I am distracted or only stitching for a short time. I am stitching this on 40-count Vellum by Picture this Plus with the called-for colors. Here is where I last was on my Come to the Garden project by Teresa Kogut. Oh my.īut…onto my stitching…as I said I got little done. I immediately took the needle downstairs and put it in my cross-stitch pincushion. All is okay but WOW! A scary second or two for sure. A few days later I put some spicey nuts in the container forgetting about the needle. I ended up putting it in… this metal tray by my sewing machine. I didn’t want to put in the pincushion as I would get mixed with other needles. I picked up the needle and went to the sewing room. One evening as I was going to bed I was walking down the upstairs hallway from the bathroom to my bedroom and found a cross-stitch needle on the floor in between the cracks of my hardwood floor. I have a story to tell you about a cross-stitch needle. I’ve been stitching one thread worth of stitching and then love up on Izzy. She’s a loving lap dog who adores any attention. As long as Rosie’s not disturbed, she’s happy. It’s so hard to stitch when she’s right there wanting some loving. Oh my, that little fur ball has won my heart.

Then when I did sit down, look who distracted me.

I had to finish my quilting deadline project. My grandson Anders has been in the hospital all week so I’ve had Carver and Gannon, his older brothers, late every night until their dad was done in the field with the harvest. Not a lot of cross-stitch has happened this week.
