Mystery, Astronomer

Well I dont think the Mystery is a Mystery very long. The black from the store (25) were brought this week. I stitched 4 of them already. lol.
And the Astronomer had some drapes. I like it very much.
And I was so bad, and bought a new one. Al the gold and browns were so very beautiful. I dont think you all are suprised if I told you it is Medusa. also from LA. Williams. I had to keep my hands out of my fabric stash box. Because I cant wait to start is also. sigh....... and than the christmas is so near and I want to finish the Madonna from Christensen. I think that is not gonna happen.......
By the way. the Medusa needs 16 skeins of 310 and 21 of brown 3371 LOL.......... Well its not all black.......
Everybody a very nice stitching week.

Hah! I looked at Medusa too, but decided this version wasn't for me. I have my eye on a new pattern also, but trying to wait for Christmas.

Now my friend, I *refuse* to comment on how much you stitched, how excited I am to see the horse's head appearing, and how I love the colors coming along in the Astronomer until you tell me HOW you do it!

I've seen all your HAED finishes on your blog and either you're 300 years old, don't sleep at night, or know something I don't know (obviously!). There are sooo many more patterns I would work on if I weren't so slooooow. Hmpf!

I'm telling you, she has Falco trained to stitch on them when she is sleeping. That has to be it.
Astrid, everything is looking great. I put Medusa on my wish list! I cannot bring myself to buy another right now.

Astrid... as always you are amazing !!! The Astronomer is taking shape so fast !!! It's a joy, a delight to see it growing... It is magical to see how the design is coming to life.
Have a great week !!
