Then I decided after doing a breakfast sketch of more leaves that I might like to try thread painting some.
I started stitching with a layer of the plastic type water soluble in a hoop but it was tearing because of the heavy stitching. It all went well once I added another layer of water soluble medium.
I got quite a bit done when I realized that I really needed more colours of thread. I've tucked some of the leaves into an envelope to carry with me when I go away next week. A friend has invited me to raid her stash tomorrow too. Thanks, Sue!
This morning, I also cut, sewed, cut again the pieces for our guild's block of the month.
They requested fall colours.
After that, things went downhill. I tried to use my I Pad App to blog and it wouldn't work. I spent 2 hours on the phone with a technician uploading my I Pad contents to the cloud, deleting the I Pad and reloading. Scary! I thought I'd lost it all at one point.
Finally got it all back but my App won't work. Now I'm trying to figure out a new one.
Phew, I need to decompress. I'm going for a little walk before it gets dark.

Love your block - and the fabrics are really food together.
Oh Holly I understand your frustration with technical problems. They feel like such a time waster.
That thread painting looks interesting.
Everything looks good n very beautiful and despite the hassles of our computer age... Tomorrow is a new day thank goodness! I sympathize!
the walk was probably the best thing you could have done. tomorrow is another day and hopefully comes with some solutions to your problems
your stitchy leaves are lovely x
Oh my goodness what a day, I think you need a day off after all of that.
Hope today is better,
Meredith
