Learning New Tricks

Lets see if I can do this mutiple picture thing. I've only spent the better part of the day working on this! Here's a picture of the things left facing me after my housecleaning today(yes, I know, they're not knitterly pictures but stay tuned!):

The sewing chore pile...

Hmm. That looks pretty awesome (despite the work it represents). Lets try to add a second picture. Here's one of the reasons I didn't get a whole lot of knitting done on my three week road trip to Newfoundland and Labrador (29 July - 20 August). This photo was taken near the start of the trip (I only had 1.5 houses - the yellow and half of the red - completed at the very beginning of the trip actually so I had been working on this project for a couple of days before I took this shot) :


Do I dare try to post a third picture? Here is the final test on my adding pictures to my blog. This picture is of how the cross stitch looked when we, literally, pulled into the driveway (sorry it's blurry, we still moving after all!) :


If you like the cross stitch, it's from a kit my parents gave me for Christmas a couple of years ago from Paradise Stitching (http://www.paradisestitching.8m.com/). I love how it's turning out (still have to backstitch it) and plan on asking for the 'Colourful Houses of St. John's' kit one of these days).

That's all for now folks. I PROMISE knitterly pictures in my very next post.

Glad to see you got multiple pics in your post.

I really like your cross-stitch. I used to be an avid stitcher but haven't bothered in years. You are tempting me to dig out my stuff again.
