2025 isn't going well - got rear-ended on my way home today. Just minding my business at a red light, and blammo! I'm fine, no airbags, will see what the shop has to say about my bumper, tho. Mostly angry that my little pony has been violated, during one of the few times I decide to take her out.

Tonight's on-stream #TwitchStitch finish! New Year's start for Jan 2022 - Autumn ala Round by Glendon Place. (no banana for scale, so stork tweezers will have to do) WOOOO! #crossstitch #TwitchStreamer #ShopSmall

Did a little unintended/impromptu show-and-tell during my recent #TwitchStitch stream, rummaging thru a finishes drawer looking for something else, and stumbled across Ink Circles' Friendly Flower Bot I did several years ago. #CrossStitch #shopsmall #TwitchStreamer

Because provoking our friendly northern neighbors wasn't enough, let's go across the pond and poke long-time EU allies in the eye with a stick, too? WTAF. I'm so sorry, everybody, I did my part but others still won. Gawd, this timeline sucks...

Mmmm, stitchy shopping!

A peek at this month's #TwitchStitch - Autumn ala Round by Glendon Place. I'm in the homestretch, putting on the beads! I'll be streaming this effort in a little while, once I finish some dinner. Chart and materials procured from @stringtheoryneedlearts.com #crossstitch #twitchstreamer

I feel like this post was some unintended foreshadowing of the events that kicked off in DC this past weekend. This timeline sucks...

This is about all I can muster right now.

STNA's Subscription window (as well as out-of-stock FBS pre-ordering) is officially OPEN, until 9pm Eastern on the 10th. Add'l details are on our website and events calendar. Link's in the bio. Plz reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks! . . . . . #crossstitch #ShopSmall

Techie PSA - New skill unlocked (ha!) - Picking a basic barrel lock with a mutilated pen. 2/2 so far - 1st was an old NAS, 2nd was a PC case. Obvs not going to be cracking a proper Stanley padlock with a Bic soon, still not sure if I should be impressed or afraid. #TechSupport #cybersecurity

Stitching up a bunch of these for my year+ Twitch subscribers as a token of appreciation. (details in alt). Worked on this last week, best-effort conversion to Philly Eagles colors. Still need to turn it into something presentable, but one down, several more to do! #crossstitch #TwitchStitch

Pre-orders are opening soon for Nashville Market thru, umm, not sure yet? Each exhibitor's cut-off varies... but it's historically about 2-3 weeks, once the email floodgates open to shops on Feb 1st. See LinkTree for details. Thanks! #crossstitch #ShopSmall #NashvilleNeedleworkMarket

Eventually, I'll get these N/S/E/W trees finished. They're deceptively detailed... Stork tweezers for scale! Chart/materials info can be found in the alt text. #crossstitch #shopsmall #fiberart #TwitchStitch #TwitchStreamer

Another winter storm alert in Georgia for this upcoming week, 2nd one this month...

This month's project - Box of Crayons by CM Designs. Sorry, no banana for scale... But this is what 43% complete looks like! I'll be working on this again tonight on Twitch at 6pm Eastern, if anyone would care to swing by and say hi. #crossstitch #fiberart #shopsmall #TwitchStreamer #TwitchStitch

Still figuring things out here, this should be an interesting adventure...
