I wanna be the very BEST

Well remember all those Pokepatterns I found? I stitched up Umbreon!

Isn't it cute? That's one down, 3 more to go! Next up are Flareon, Evee, and Espeon.

I have a gripe with Michaels. You see, I was there the other day, and their thread section left a lot to be desired. I ended up having Tim order the rest of the thread that was needed to finish his pokemon because they were out of like all the colours I went there for. Grrr.

I also got my Hardwicke Manor Hoops, and I lubs them. I'm also very impressed with Traditional Stitches. They're based in Alberta (yay Canada) and Janice answered my questions I had about the hoops in a very timely manner, AND shipped them within 24 hours of ordering. She also packaged them very nicely. Overall I won't hesitate to do business again with her. As for the hoops, I got the 6 inch (5/16 width) and the 8.5" and 10" (5/8 width). The 10 is for cougar pretty much once I've dug her out of the craft storage.

I haven't been neglecting paladin!

In retrospect, I should have sucked it up and found where I made the error, because trying to work around it is driving me crazy (very short drive...). I'll be glad once it's done.

That's about it! Happy Stitching :)
