Flower Pillow W-I-P

I started on this crochet project quite some time ago. Somehow I think I’ve turned it into something much harder than the gals who posted the tutorial meant it to be.

First, I think my crocheted petal strand is much too long therefore making the pillow much bigger than anticipated. Which in turn is making the part I’m on now – hand stitching the petals to the fabric – more difficult, too. Bleh.

Today I chose fabric, penned the petals down, and began stitching.

I’m about half-way finished with the stitching. My neck and head hurt!!

Goal tomorrow: finish stitching down crocheted petals between

• packing for mine and Mary’s trip to the beach this weekend,
• going with E to the hospital for one more test to rule out gallbladder issues,
• making cornbread dressing to serve 35 (!) people for a pre-Thanksgiving dinner at work on Friday,
• going to a mentoring kick-off meeting with our church’s women’s ministry (I’m really excited about this!), and
• making snicker doodle cookies with Mary for a school project (with this recipe or this one?)

Oh, yeah – there’s that little thing called W-O-R-K!!

I’ve been doing better with my schedule, lately, I promise! I don’t know how I let all this glob up on me tomorrow!! Yikes! This is how I get in trouble…

Night, bloggy friends!!

Oh – don’t forget to check out AEDM for some creative loveliness!
