A to Z Challenge - P


PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-MISS FANNY PRICE

Sorry for her "crookedness", the fabric was too soft to stretch right.
Austen Alphabet16
Fanny would probably be my #3 favorite heronine, but I don't think we share traits like I do with Anne or Catherine. I do have to admit that I don't care for the red dress for her, unless it's the dress that Mary Crawford puts her in after Fanny was out in the rain...it is definitely more of a Mary Crawford dress.

PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-PURSES, BAGS, AND THE LIKE

I've gotten so obsessed with carrying a Disney purse, I can't bring myself to not have one! Granted, two of those tubs in my closet are filled with ones I never use:
Disney P-02
but there is always one that stands the test of time and gets carried forever. Right now, I'm in love with my newest acquisition:
Disney P-01
Notice my Disney backpack in the background? That's my laptop bag/vacation carry-on bag and has probably gotten more use than all the other ones put together.

Great stitching as always :)

Fanny is a wonderful heroine, and yes, the dress seems anachronistic. I love your new bag, purple of course!

I love bags but I never carry a purse...weird huh? Lol I adore my 60th anniversary mini backpack from dl. I really want the 60th doomed and Burke but there's no way that'll happen lol. I love the purple!
Justine said…
That looks like a useful bag! I never ikea Fanny Price really but I agree the dress must be Mary's.
Bea said…
Quite the collection of bags. I only do a backpack, so not something that would particularly appeal to me. Do love the colour of your current bag though.

Perfect perfect perfect!

Purses (or bags here) are just wonderful! We do have purses but what do you call them? Ah well, i digress, another great stitch and post.

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...
