Social Distancing vs Introvert

I don't care if it's social distancing or not I am and have always been and introvert.  I was so excited to wake up this morning and not have to go anywhere.  I actually slept in until 9:30 this morning.  Most weekends I'm up and have things to go and do.  The normal grocery store trip or errands or whatever Bill and I find to do.  He has been home from work since Wednesday because he started with the chills.  We decided that he would stay home just in case.  I have asthma so we aren't taking any chances.  Yes, I'm still going to work because we won't can't shut down.

Anyway,  since I was home I figured I do some crafting.  I was going to do some painting but I need rubber gloves for my finishing step and just ran out.  They are not a necessity so it will wait.  Instead I decided to pick up my wool, needle, and thread.  Lately I have been on a pineapple kick.  I have been looking for just the right wool for it and finally found it.  It just shipped, but until then I decided to try one with what I have on hand.  I recently had a Facebook friend give me a kitchen trash bag full of wool.  She was cleaning out her stash and thought I could use it.  So, I went digging today.



Ready to stitch.



I got this far and kept thinking it needed more.


So then I decided to add some "embroidery" stitching.  I'm still not done with it.  I think I want to add some red in a border.  I have some ideas I will try tomorrow.


Remember when I said I have been on a pineapple kick?   Same pattern but I hooked it instead.

Once I get my new wool I have a different pineapple shape I want to use.  If I'm home again next weekend I may get to do that too. LOL.

  3. Yup, what Marly said. I mean who gives away wool LOL?? You go girl... I hear you about the introvert thing... But for the concern for what others are going through ...oh and food shortages due to senseless, selfish, hoarding....it would be life as usual. Sunday Smiles ~ Robin

  4. Love the pineapples. Nice to see you posting again. I bet you are thankful you are not a paramedic anymore eh? Although it sounds like you are just as busy.
