Tangled
This week I have been ignoring all responsibilities and not even looking at HTML code in favor of something more tactile. I've been crafting. I have a newfound love of cross stitch as it is the perfect counterpart to pixeling. In fact I'm currently pixeling some ideas for cross stitch patterns.
This is "Pocket Garden of 4-leaf Clover" from Stitchin'spiration. It's a freebie there and my first try at "blackwork", which basically means instead of those little x's i cross stitch I am just stitching lines. You can make some very cool geometric designs as you can see. I am only about a fifth of the way through the chart. Someday this design will become a bookmark, if I ever get back to Eugene and my sewing machine.
Website will be completed someday when I have access to my Windows tools (I'm still on the Linux laptop).

Dude that looks awesome! I’m glad I have infected you with more craft.
I finished one of the patterns from My Aunt’s Attic but haven’t taken a picture and it’s at home. T_T It was some roses, and I did it on 28 count – which was tinier and requiring more concentration than I expected. I do love tiny things, tho.
