April A to Z Challenge - Cross Stitch "J" x 2

J
"J" is a weird mix, on the Once front, it is one of my favorite characters, but on the V Mars front, it's one of my least. Let's ramble on with another letter, shall we?




Project #1: Once Upon A Time
ouat10
"J" is for the Mad Hatter, aka Jefferson.  There was definitely NOT enough Jefferson on Once!  Sebastian Stain played the Mad Hatter like no one else has in a Wonderland adaptation before and it is just a shame he didn't have more screen time.  The Mad Hatter became mad when he was trapped in Wonderland by Regina, lost his head at the hands of Cora/The Queen of Hearts, and was forced to try to recreate his magical hat that was a portal between lands (interesting twist on the hat, I thought) instead of going home to his beloved daughter.  Although Jefferson was in on the curse and was granted immunity from it's amnesia, his knowledge of who he actually is and his separation from his daughter (who is under the full curse), added to his insanity.  Granted, he and Jennifer Morrison were dating at the time, but their chemistry was extremely palpable and I did secretly wish they would get together on the show.  Oh well, c'est la vie.


Project #2:  Veronica Mars
"J" is for Jackie, Wallace's on-again, off-again girlfriend.  She starts off as a mega bee-och, and just when you start to like her, you find out she's been lying about who is is the whole time!  I was glad to see her go.

Hey, Mark here from 'The Open Hearth' stopping by and seeing what you're up to.

Quite honestly, I have no clue as to who these characters are, but I do admire the needle-point (if that is the correct term?).

Good luck with the rest of the A-Z :)

I have somehow managed to miss the A-Z series until this point, I love them, and I love Once Upon a Time. They're great!

Okay, honest question here. Have you ever sewn your thumb to your craft and not realized it until finished?

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
