Here is this week's update on Paradigm Lost. It took about 3.5 hours just to do this bit more of the next large motif... it's a slow one, that's for sure!! (OK, I was a little distracted by checking in on several news reports from the Red Sox at Winter Meetings - two big moves tonight!). Anyhow, to non-sports fans, this was simply Paradigm Lost SAL night :-) I hope it moves faster next week.
And, the other little gift that I sent off that arrived yesterday was for
Amy :-) As a child and family psychotherapist, I have the mentality of an elementary school teacher. I just adore children, and I was so tickled when an 8 year old stitcher joined our blogging world! I had to send her a treat!!! There are way better photos of this fob in Amy's bog!
