A Finish & An Update

I am rather pleased with myself today. Not only am I posting a picture of my progress on The Astronomer by Myles Pinkney (HAED) but I also have a finish.

A Change of Pace by Barbara & Cheryl has been sitting in my UFO pile for (prepare yourselves) 13 years.
Yesterday 12/10/11 it began yelling at me so I pulled it out & thought to self "Self if you put in a few stitches it will shut up for awhile". To my surpise I saw that I only had a small amount to finish & the rest is history. As of 3:30pm EST on 12/11/11 it is FINISHED.

Can you tell I am really really pleased with my self?



Now I can get out Afternoon Tea by Randal Spangler for the next week with a clear conscience.

    Cindy, I had to do a double-take when I saw the photo of your kitty, Elvira up in the top right hand corner of your blog. She's almost exactly the same as my 9 mth old kitten, Pippa. The resemblance is uncanny. :o)

    Congratulations on your finish.

    I just love The Astronomer. What you have so far looks wonderful. I will enjoy watching your progress.

    Grrr! I'm having trouble posting msgs with blogger. I had to use a different account to post the above message. You can find my blog and my similar looking kitten, Pippa over here these-two-hands.blogspot.com/
    Cheers, Dot
