FINALLY!!

I finally managed to finish the stocking last weekend and got it mailed off on Tuesday. It's such a relief to have made it before the deadline. I just hope that Kim and her mom like it. Now I'm getting to work on a few of my own neglected projects. I've currently picked back up on my Hummingbird Trellis afghan and am working on Block 15. I'll be finished with it, hopefully, by the middle of this week, if not before and then I'll move on to the NEXT project in my rotation, which is the sports afghan I'm doing for my stepson.

Haven't Updated THIS in a While!

Over a year, in fact. I want to, though. I've been spending a lot of time stitching and I should be sharing it, right? Besides, the more blogs I have, the more money I can make with PayPerPost, and money will help me buy STASH!!

So, I'm currently working on a stocking. It's a commissioned piece and I have to be finished by April 1. So, I have roughly 3 weeks. I'm almost there, though...I think I can do it. If I remain dilligent. It's been tough these last few days, though, because I've been sick. I'm over the sickness part of it, but I just can't seem to get my appetite back. I have emetophobia like one could not imagine and it's just hard for me to force myself to eat when my stomach hurts or feels yucky, even if I know that the "yucky" is caused by NOT eating! So, I'm having to make myself eat SMALL amounts for right now and I'm hoping and praying that it doesn't get to me, because I know me and if it makes me sick, then I'll quit trying.

But, as soon as I finish this stocking up, I'm going to either work on another one of Alyssa's quilt blocks, or I'm going to do another block on the Hummingbird Trellis afghan. Maybe both.
