Today I awoke.
That's it.
I awoke.
Much to my chagrin, honestly. I was not at all thrilled to be awoken by the sound of footsteps going up and down the stairs above my room, but even most importantly, I was dismayed to look at my phone, see I slept way past my alarms, and was STILL exhausted. I got 11 hours of sleep and I felt like shit. I have spent this entire day feeling downright miserable. I feel as though I have wasted a day, and on that note, I am going to go to sleep so I can spend tomorrow as productive as humanly possible. I have to do laundry, work on my Petronas Towers piece, start thinking about what I'm going to make for 6x6x2010, update my website with new work, give some boxes to a woman from Freecycle, pick up my paycheck, go to the bank, and what else? Oh, yes. I am going salsa dancing in the evening. It is my last day off for a week, so I have to make the most of it.
I *need* to get this piece done for the Texas Museum of Fiber Arts call. It's due on Monday, but I don't think I'm going to get it done! At least I have one finished for the exhibit, but I really, really want to have two there. I even know how this one is going to turn out. There is no frustrating second thoughts or do-overs like my Paris piece, but I made the mistake of choosing a very detailed structure...
What can I say? I'm up to my ass in alligators.









Well, well, well. This piece is coming along quite nicely, I must say! I already got the tower done, and now I need to finish the detail and the hand stitching. I just added some borders earlier and I need to finish embroidering the word "Paris" and I think I'll be all done!!
