Well my current project is reaching its decade anniversary...

Plus I have:
1. Fire and Ice
2. Thunder Ridge (both future big projects).
3. A lovely view over my uni town to stitch (slightly smaller).
4. The new one I've just bought to do as a present for my mum (Parkland Waters). Which she may not get for a few years.

I've bought a second frame so I can start on the present, but even so I really won't need to buy another kit for the next 10-20 years Smile

Thanks! It's The Mystery of Irma Vep. If you don't know the show, the cast is made up of 2 actors who play 8 different roles. We are talking quick change city. At the end of the night my backstage crew is just as exhausted as the actors. The show is not quite a walk in the park for me either, I talk through most of the show giving cues.

We just had our opening night and it went rather well. We had some technical snafus but nothing the audience would really notice unless they looked in the booth and saw me franticly trying to fix the problem.

Grats on opening night!

It's a fun (and hilarious) show... we've actually been talking about it in my theatre history class some this term. ^^

Done!

So far I've got an A and a B+, waiting to hear on three other classes. Two of them, I'm pretty sure I have at least a B in, my English class I'm really nervous about.... anything between a B and a fail... ><

But, my square is also done. I'll try and get that out to you on Monday.

hi creek, i received your square today and it is well done.i also got your pic skatinglibrian and it does like good and i think i will take you up on the offer of the plain fabric.i have an idea i used on another quilt i think would tie all the different squares together.i think a dedicated square would be nice if you want to do one,i am not very good with wording something like that.you can pm me about that.

I'm working on the dedication square ... tho I am prone to being distracted when the sun comes out (or it just stops raining) and I can go out in the garden and try to rescue everything that's been beaten down by rain and hail.

I'm parent sitting this weekend so may have time to put on some speed.

Glad you like the border fabric ... everyone who has seen it does and I'm being encouraged to do a similar floor cloth ... yikes!

Cheerio!
