sticks, beads and strings
make wonderful, beautiful things

After 15 years

it’s done, done, done, done. I finished back stitching the ribbons and put my initial and date in it late last night. I think it must be the longest lived WIP in history, but Fantasy Ride is complete. I’ll get it washed up by Friday so you can see it all clean and prettiful. Tonight, I’ll be leafing through the latest issue of IK, and picking up the needles once more. Someone who loves pink needs a Wallaby :)

And I’ll bet not a one of you needs to apply at Tuition Wise to figure out just who that might be.

I only understood about 1/2 of this post. LOL! Sewing/knitting/whatever really does have a language of its own, doesn’t it?

Apparently so. let me eliminate some acronyms and see if it helps:

WIP: work in progress
ITK: Interweave Knits

Also, back-stitching means to outline in thread a portion of a design, and you do it to cross-stitch, needlepoint and the like.

I’m assuming you got the finished after 15 years part. Can you hear the pop of that cap coming off my fizzy water from there?
