Anyway, other than that I've been exceedingly busy at work. I'm never, ever organising a conference again. Especially not when trying to finish editing a book (amongst other things). Ususally us academics get a break from teaching (not a holiday!) in the summer, and a chance to catch up on research and admin... well not for me this year!! My stitching time has taken a serious hit, and I've really not followed my goals, just stitched what I wanted, when (if?) I felt like it.. as a consequence I only met one of my (very modest) August goals:
1) finish you were hatched - nope
2) work on waiting for ships - yes
3) work on fantasy triptych - nada
On the plus side, WFS has seen some serious stitching recently:
So, goals for September.. I need to be careful here, as I don't expect this month to be much better
1) finish you were hatched (I should manage it, there's not much to go other than BS and the dedication)
2) work on waiting for ships. I'd like to finish the bs, but we'll see
3) start a birth sampler for Hugh, who was born on the 20th August
4) stitch on something else
and a non-stitchy goal:
5) blog more than twice this month (I'm already half way :))

Wow, Jo, that *is* serious progress! Well done, she's beautiful, even without hair :-)
This project is great no wonder your spending so much time on it.
I think when your so pushed at work you should forget stitching goals and give yourself a break from deadlines.
She is looking wonderful, well worth all the time you've put in.
