Christmas Eve Eve
My Ambitious Second Project
I was quite ambitious and one day I found a HUGE design that I fell in love with. I mean it really was HUGE; it required tons of fabric and so much floss that it filled a shopping basket (it doesn't seem so big now that I'm more experienced). Some colors required 4 skeins, while others required 2 or 3 skeins. I chose this particular design because it reminded me of when I would visit Grandma & Grandpa and we would walk to the store. The whole side of the building was a painted Coca-Cola ad.
After I had purchased all of the floss, the fabric and the chart, it all sat in a shopping bag and to this day, I haven't started it! That was so many years ago. The store I purchased all the materials for that project was a department store that is still around today, but you won't find any craft or hobby items there.
I don't know why I never started that piece and when I came across the booklet recently, I was still drawn to the design. Maybe I'll consider starting it this year... or maybe not.
Until next time...
Happy Stitchin'
