I spent a fair amount of the day on Zoom connected to Acorns&Threads Pacific Stitchers Summit. The 30 minutes offset on top of the rest of the rest of the time zone change was a total and complete mental disrupter. As I have mentioned, I understand 30 minute offsets – Labrador isn’t the only location in the world (Adelaide & Katmandu come to mind) but my mind is still having a tough time wrapping around it.
My package from the retreat is sitting in my craft studio at the other end of the country. Means I don’t get to play in the raffle or bingo or…. not that I really care. The projects from the designers this time are actually lovely if you happen to like samplers.
I don’t. I just don’t get the point of stitching yet another piece featuring a generic house, some trees, a person or four, a few farm animals and some saying or another. The originals are strange enough to me, but reproducing something stitched by a 7-14 year old girl a decades to hundreds of years ago? Why?
Off soap box.
Otherwise catching up on my sleep.
