One Punch at a Time

Do you remember the Hansel and Gretel story where the children tried to leave bread crumbs so they could find their way in the forest?  That's where I felt as I moved ever so slowly through this 'house' design.  Because I'm using reverse punchneedle I can actually delineate each stitch one by one.  My own personal crumbs.

And slowly but surely it starts to take shape.  The end is actually in sight.  My story is being told with hundreds and hundreds of punches.

Messy Me!

Remember my great 'organization' of a few postings ago?  Looking at what is before me right now 'organization' seems to have fallen by the way!

I have to have 'every' possible/probable color of floss out on my table.  Mixing and matching and making a mess.

 

I have to have the exact threads I'm working with in my work space - along with the used up pieces of thread sitting in a small pottery bowl.

Time for clean up will come one day soon.  In the meantime I wonder 'how can one person be having so much fun'?
