Baseball fan. Spends too much time discussing how to fix the Colorado Rockies. Loves cats. Grows tomatoes successfully at altitude. Collects way too many things. Posts about all that and random thoughts, but mostly likes and replies to other posts.

Latest cross stitch piece finished. I didn't realize this pattern had as much confetti as it does (that's completely on me), so while I like how it turned out, I really was more in the mood for something more straightforward. 1/2

I need to cross stitch this.
If you’re not suffering, it’s not baseball.

I made a cross stitch pattern from this artist's work (with the artist's express permission). I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, especially since this was my very first time creating a pattern from scratch! #crossstitch

As the Rockies' season winds down, I'm finding I'm not feeling the usual wistful sadness, just an overwhelming sense of relief that it will be over soon.

Everything through Feat 13 done! I didn't think I'd be able to catch up given all the chaos going on in my Real Life, but cross stitching has been one of the things keeping me sane.

Feat 12 of #ExtraordinaryBirdsSAL by @lolacrow.bsky.social . I think this is my favorite Feat so far! Before the backstitching, the black xs of the hanging parrots' eyes made them look like Monty Python's ex-parrots 😄.
