Blue Flowers cross-stitch

his is another cross-stitching project that I actually did quite diligently during the last week.  I think it turned out better than the Piggies.  I get some of my patterns from the books at the Public Library and from DMC. 

Finished Muddy Piglets

After about two months, I have finally finished this pattern of muddy, little piggies.  It should not have taken me so long except that I procrastinated.  Yes.  I procrastinate.  A lot.

The thread colors that I used are not those which were recommended, but they are what I had in my limited inventory.  I am now working on a cross-stitch pattern from the same company.  They are pretty flowers.  Who does not like a flower?

Do you cross-stitch?  Do you have a favorite pattern?  How do you incorporate your hobby into your life?

Muddy Piglets in progress

Life is quickly passing.  So much occurs to preoccupy the mind.  Have you ever been upset over something about which nothing could be done- at least, by you?  "Control freak" that I am, I frequently find myself in this predicament.  So, rather than brood and stress, I find busy work for my hands.
