soup vegetables and lovely little white running stitches

Here are the vegetables that have been sitting on my kitchen table since yesterday, and am I making soup? No. I’m sewing. I love my little embroidery girls. I sat up in bed last night watching another episode of “The High Chaparral“, don’t laugh but I love that show, after one of those days when it’s like …well I don’t know really what it’s like, but I do know it was full-on. I only had about another half hour of stitching left to finish the quilting, but I couldn’t keep my eyes open any longer, so lights out. This morning I got up, looked at the vegetables… Yes, I looked at them. And for about 2 minutes too. Then I picked up my sewing and finished that instead. I mean, soup can wait, right? Now to sew the top and bottom borders of the pillowcase. First, fabric. Not sure whether to go with some pretty Libery of London fabric actually, or to use something a little more modern. I’ll have to ponder on that for a bit.

OK, I think I’m ready for the soup now.
