A blast from the past...

Well in the interest of keeping the wrists happy and in yet another misguided attempt to finish some things, I've picked back up a cross-stitch project. Embroidery is a whole different motion than knitting, so it provides variety for my hands and wrists. All good in the ever vigilant crusaide agains carpel tunnel.

the words 'I will finish this!' has come up often. So here I am again. I will finish this, although as I commented to a friend today, perhaps not until 2010 at this rate!

I've started dragging it in to work to put a stitch or three in over my lunch hour, and you can see the current sparse progress.
In 2003 it looked like:

Not much of a change, but it's coming. More photos as I get more done. In theory.
