Preliminary sketches and color selections for the next freebee counted cross stitch were ready for charting a month ago. Charting and models are underway. Expect a notice on this blog for the counted cross stitch freebee on the 27th and 28th. This one had a unanimous vote from the advisory board to get it and its sibs charted, they feel it will be a solid line to market.  

Serving two masters ... actually, about 4 different masters, is a tad bit of juggle-trick even without a weird ailment that makes you feel like you are packing a 50 lb load uphill in the rain all the time. But it pays the bills. Right now I'm doing webmaster tasks for two companies, graphic design tasks for two others, and of course getting my cross stitch business out of the starting gate. That keeps me busy enough.

Sure glad the 3 week family reunion has come to a close. Cooking, cleaning and entertaining is not my idea of fun, but it was a blast to have my darlings with me after a long separation. It made the work light. 

I think I'll finish up two catalog sites and a cross stitch freebee offering about Wednesday if all goes well.

So much for my 15 minute break! Gotta get back to work.
