Back to the real world

Well, it is back to the real world after spending the weekend at Camp Stitchalot. I managed to get a lot of stitching done at camp and decided to rotate projects rather than work on one thing the entire weekend. So, I got a bit done on the palm tree, Be Scary by Just Nan, and another piece by Lesa Steele Designs. I took a great finishing class by Charlotte Dudney. Now I'm anxious to do some finishing on that pile of pieces that I have!! I picked up some punch needle patterns and a pattern for a pendant which is all colonial and french knots. I'm wondering if the knots will drive me nuts, but the piece was so cute I figured I had at least give it a try.
I also did a cute little Kiss Me pillow that they hand out to the family members of soldiers being shipped off to war.

I've been doing a fair amount of fighting with my computer this past week and I think I finally have things straightened out now. Of course, I just got the battery backup replacement in the mail today. I think I'll hold off on installing it as I've already spent too many hours today messing with the computer.

Off to work on cleaning up a bedroom to make a craft room!

I hope your computer issues are all worked out now, then you can post some pictures of your progress. :)

I still need to fix the one section of the heart for my pillow top, then hopefully the rest will go more smoothly.
