If there’s a way to auto-cross-post relevant entries from here to Thing-A-Day, I haven’t figured it out. Doing it manually feels inelegant. I don’t have a photo to post, but I got out the drawing tablet for the first time…
SBQ: What do you do while stitching?
The Stitching Bloggers’ Question of the week is: What is your favorite pastime while stitching? Do you just enjoy silence, listen to music/audiobooks or do you “watch” TV/movies? Do you have specific favorites you listen to/watch while stitching? I like…
SBQ, Heat, Cell Phone

SBQ: Stitching on the Road
This week’s Stitching Blogger’s Question is What do you keep your WIPs and other stitching supplies in when traveling? I nearly didn’t answer this one, because the bag is dingy! This is the disreputable bag in which I carry my…
