SGA & x-stitch

[scriggle]

I watched my very first episode of SGA last night. I can see why people ♥ Rodney. He is a snarky woobie. Nothing jumped out at me as being particularly slashy. Still an entertaining hour.

A while back, I posted a cross-stitch pattern ( here) based on the silhouette of Fraser and Ray. I started it last weekend. It's coming along rather quickly

You making progress though. That's more than I can say for most projects at the moment. *g*

That's about 6 hours work there. No color changes helps it go fast. But my eyes are getting tired.

I know. People who don't xstitch don't appreciate how hard it is to make all those little stitches and that's just when it's one color. When you do blending, it's like dear god, am I insane or what? How can this be fun? *g* Still, most of the time I do find it relaxing.

I put in another 3 hours today. Ray is complete to the same level as Fraser now. That picture of the sleeping kitten I posted is full of blended threads. Then there's the backstitching.

I find it relaxing too. Today I sat and stitched with football on as background noise.

The kit I should be starting today is full of blended threads too. I already think that's a bit too complicated. I mean, come on, you can buy 1000+ colours and none of them are close to what you want? *stratches head*
