November 9: What A Difference

I am feeling so much better.  Can't begin to say what made me feel so blah, but I am glad it is over and my energy has returned.
Last night and this morning I have been doing some more needle punch.  Thought I would let you have a glimpse at this design.  It is going to be a birthday gift for a dear friend.  Once it is done, I will give you another look.  Love how my drawing is taking on  life of its own.  This is a great new evening activity for when there is no binding or new book calling.

This afternoon is going to be a fun adventure, but there is more to that story.  We are going to the lumber mill to buy our rough cut wood for our table making workshop.  I will share photos and comments later tonight.  The rest of the story is that this past weekend I told Kevin that I would love to try my hand at carving but know only what I have seen online about the subject.  We bought a couple of books on the subject, and I am still very interested in trying it.  Being the person he is, my husband arranged for me to take some lessons from one of the instructors at the school.  I start Monday.***

***For those that know me, do not jinx this with your negative thoughts concerning my klutziness.  I am going to enjoy this and simply carry lots of band-aids.  Love that you care, but please keep the thinking positive about my success!
