B for Bear, C for Cat, W for Writer's Block?

The good news is that our cross-stitch project is coming along nicely. The "B is for Bear" block is done except for the finishing touches to define the bear and the bubbles. Quite a bit of work is also done on the "C is for Cat" block. The stripes are complete now and you can clearly see where the letter "C" will fit in. There's even a bit of a start to the letter and you can see the spaces where the cat's paws will fit in when positioned in the classic "Hang in there, baby" pose.

More progress. The bottom block is just waiting for the cat and letter "C".

There's only six letters in this pattern and one that's missing is the letter "W". Most of the time we'd say "W is for Waiting" and of course that's still true. We are continuing to wait and we hit a particularly rough patch with the wait over the last month or so. The good news is that we seem to be coming out of it and we're starting to feel the positive energy from the start of summer. The one thing we're finding though, is that it's really tough to keep writing and that's why we've been so quiet recently. We've got a lot to say, but we really seem to be struggling to say it right now. If there was a another block for the letter "W" it seems that block should be "W for Writer's Block". We're not sure how we'd illustrate it, but hopefully this too will pass. In any case, summer starts tomorrow and we're really happy about that. We hope you are too!

"B is for Bear" and is just about done.



Cat coming soon to this space. Hang in there, baby!
