Where, O Where I have I gone?

Actually, I moved my blog! I still need to redirect the page on our website, but you can get to it here:

http://kathrynpeebles.wordpress.com/

You've probably missed out on a few new posts, too. Sorry for the delay, but I was trying to get wordpress to do what I wanted.

I'll save details for later, but I now have fairly strong opinions on blogger vs. wordpress, so ask me before you switch your blog between the two!

Thanks for the patience during the switch over. You'll be rewarded with a lot of new posts over the next couple of weeks!

Finished Project!

Well, sorta finished. Back in October I was working on an embroidery project, and Phase I is complete! Here goes: (click on it to see it bigger)

I'm going to cut out the letters that I embroidered and sew them onto better fabric (that's what I get for buying fabric from the $1 bin at Wal-Mart). The design on the P is a Celtic knot - which proves my interest in them extends to almost a year ago when I started this project!

The final product will be a duvet cover / quilt that looks something like this:

...except the purple will be the eggplant material below, the four shaded sections will be purple / gray leaf pattern below, and the middle will be a to-be-purchased silver / gray. (you can also see a close-up on the stitching for the bottom of the b and l)Here is the inscription below the shield:

I will embroider this in the same way I did Peebles on top, but much smaller. You can read my previous post for what it means. Time when I'm backstage turned out to be a great time to get some embroidery done!

for Andrew

Recently, a friend said that either people end up not keeping up with their blogs or their posts dissolve into descriptions of the sandwich they ate that day. This post is for him.
I ate a fudgesicle today. It's by Weight Watchers, but it was absolutely delicious. I can't stand the feeling of the wood popsicle stick without getting goosebumps all over, so Joe served it to me in a bowl. It was really yummy. Blogger says fudgesicle is spelled wrong and should be fussbudget. What on earth is that?
