I - Disney Alphabet Cross Stitch / Needle Club-Week 6


"I" has typically been a hard letter to do in the challenge (or at least it has been for my challenges), but I had no trouble picking an "I" for my Disney Alphabet cross stitch chart from CloudsFactory. Despite it not being cool to like Gilbert Gottfried anymore because of his public antics, I still do because of this character. Disney villain sidekicks really hadn't been their own entities until the second gen movies came along, they were just minions to the villains. Iago changed all that. He had his own agenda and has managed to instill himself in the Disney-verse without Jafar. Even this Disney purist has to admit that I preferred The Enchanted Tiki Room with Iago and my "Z" choice better than the original. Granted, my all time favorite sidekicks were Pain and Panic from Hercules, but Iago is pretty darn close!


"I" is for Iago.

It was also Needle Club this week. I ended up staying later because I goofed and ended a column short. I had to frog an area, fill in an area, and extend an area so I was there an extra hour and a half (and I'm still buried in bloody pink!). But I did manage to get it fixed and got extra time by myself to do it in.

I'm not familiar with Iago, but I love comic sidekicks of villains (I'm a big Minion fan!!). Congrats on fixing your goof. I hope you get out of the land of pink soon! lol

I'm so behind on A-Z blogs, but I just caught up on all your cross-stitch posts, and they are so precious!

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...
