Working on: I've been pecking away at my current "mindless" cross stitch WIP, art nouveau autumn (Sheila Hudson).

Need encouragement on: Mom has reminded me that I owe several people memory quilts. I need to dig out the craft room table and the ironing board, and I just can't get started for whatever reason.

Events: The Celebration of Needlework is happening in Nashua, NH, USA in May. It's basically Cross Stitch Con. I go for the shopping and socializing but they also do workshops.

Reading: Assiduously grinding through Tome 3 of Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle, The System Of The World. I am about to test the limits of my library's renewal policy yet again. After that I have a small stack of newish short SF/fantasy to dip into.

Watching: All the Star Trek.

Chores and whatnot: Last week I filed ALL THE THINGS. Now instead of a massive looming avalanche, I have a neat section of curated books on the top shelf of my desk. (No, I did not find the vet records I was looking for. Alas. I heroically phoned BOTH vet offices and now I have the boys' complete records in PDF form. HUZZAH.)

Pic of the autumn WIP, featuring too-large Q-snaps. wildly off grain aida, and cheesy shiny embroidery scissors I got for Christmas:
