My SBB order has been shipped! The order only took 40 days! Anyway, it could come in the mail today. I better get busy and finish that Sugar Plum Fairy Stocking. I worked hard on her yesterday. I was a little bit afraid because I had to embroider her face. The face is a make-it/break-it deal. If it looks good everything is fine but if it looks bad, the stocking is ruined. It turned out okay. If I were to do it again, I would make her eyelashes with only one strand of floss. I put a braid in her hair and I like it. I left off the pearls that were supposed to be wound around the hair as I didn't think they were needed. So she is close to being done. If I worked on her all day, I could finish her.
I have been making good progress on the finishing of Vierlande Winders' Keeper. I lined the pocket and attached it to the main piece. Now I have to line the main piece. The time consuming part will be all the eyelets. There are 24 of them. I like how it is looking though, nice and neat.
I got the Newsletter yesterday about the Cabinet of Curiosities class. There was an estimate of how much the casket is projected to cost. I was shocked but not deterred. I am very excited about this class. I've always wanted to stitch a casket. It begins in less than a month.
A week from today I will be shopping at the Mall of America.
Cool.
