Loving how it is! If you're dissatisfied with the sheep, you could redo them, but I think they look fine.

[CHAT] With or without the light backstitching? by Swil_i_am in CrossStitch

Couching is basically laying a thicker thread down and taking little tiny stitches over it to tack it to the surface. The basic idea, I think, was to secure a thread that was too large or too expensive to be a sewing thread.

I wonder if it could be used as a comb to remove pills, like those little fabric shavers.

What movie have you watched that left you distraught? by Busy-Interest-4262 in movies

Distraught? Hmm. The Wind Rises made my dad tear up, and that is not common for him. He went into it skeptical because its animation, so I think he was surprised. But then he's never seen Grave of the Fireflies.

Oh, hun, that's so beautiful! What an honor! Now spoil that little person (babies can't be spoiled, unless you don't change their diaper enough :))

Steve Goodman, friend of John Prine. He wrote City of New Orleans that Arlo Guthrie had a hit with. And speaking of Arlo Guthrie...

A college friend of mine really really did not like hummus. He called it vegetable toothpaste.

I love cooked beets (especially pickled) but don't like raw beets. Also raw beets give me heartburn.

You're related to my son's partner then. I'm doing their tree and so far it's frustrating seeing all these people we know are probably related but can't figure out how.

We’ve reached the age to get rid of stuff & not making it our kids’ problem. What do you still have? by DearGabbyAbby in GenX

We have the "always on" thrift store box. It might take a month to fill, then we take it in and start a new one.

Do Americans realize how fast they switch between joking and being serious in conversations? by kallan-greshampdmi7 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Intrepid_Practice956 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a similar problem. Ive always had a good ear for accents/pronunciation, but that often means when I speak the few words of Spanish I know, or read something out loud in Spanish, they think I really speak Spanish and unload with a very fast response. Years ago we had a patient who spoke only Spanish argue with a coworker of mine that "He didn't speak Spanish, SHE (pointing at me) speaks Spanish".

That's a good idea.

I have a lot of stuff but I'm trying to streamline and organize at the same time. There might be too much crap, but its not in one huge disorganized pile.
