Mel's Sunday Update Now I've found my Camera

Yes OK so it's Tuesday - how was I to know I hid the camera on myself by actually putting it away where it belongs.  I never put it there :)

And that is fairly indicative of my health issues this past fortnight; I haven't been at work due to migraine pain and changes in migraine medication.  In between the usual drudgery of housework and fighting with medical receptionists I did manage some stitching.

Draco the Protector is finished.  He took me 10 days from start to finish - I think that's my fastest stitch that wasn't needed for a deadline! Pictures are here and here.

Also I did Part 3 of the Stitch Specialist's Tree of Stitches.  Part 3 is French Knots.  This part only served to turn my distrust of French Knots into outright hatred and loathing.  I will continue to replace any and all French Knots in any design with pretty beads. Now and forever Amen.

Mariann's Round Robin has turned up and I will start that on the weekend - I still have the migraine pain, but I'm back at work tomorrow so I doubt there will be much stitching this week.


Just to cheer everyone up (especially me) Stephen and I went into Perth this week and bought me the Giant Microbes Christmas Set and I also bought a sperm cell.  Doesn't he look cute?
