Nice to be able to stitch the border without having to look at the pattern over and over, although I agree with you, it's good to keep an eye on it! Fairy Moon is beautiful too!!

I'm glad the weirdo is out of the picture and you are starting to warm up to your new workplace. Hopefully you can get back to your gym routine soon--exercise is such a huge stress reliever, isn't it?<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your stitching updates--both are looking great and I love your new orchid. Have never tried growing one myself, but have always admired those lovely colors :)Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10368237913096460512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-78773224954866554492012-06-27T03:08:48.983-07:002012-06-27T03:08:48.983-07:00Beautiful progress on your WIPs!

My parents lived in Malaysia for many years and my mum had about 50 orchids both inside and outside the house. We have about 6 or 7 in our house at the moment. One of them is from our wedding 5 years ago - I had orchids as my centre piece. We find that they prefer bathrooms best. Not great as not many people get to see them up in our en-suite! ;0)Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00465814935013604949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-25017046600748068782012-06-26T08:43:13.435-07:002012-06-26T08:43:13.435-07:00Oh, *bleep*, I'm sorry you are feeling stresse...Oh, *bleep*, I'm sorry you are feeling stressed at the moment.

I'm hopeless with plants but seem to be able to keep orchids for ages. I water them once a week or once a fortnight depending on whether the central heating is on or not. I also use orchid feed in the water which seems to make a big difference. Finally they are fussy about where you put them. If you find a place that works then the secret seems to be not to move it from there.Ann at Beadlework.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02053072826180330534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-44856005524831214572012-06-25T21:23:06.518-07:002012-06-25T21:23:06.518-07:00Your orchid is gorgeous !!!Your orchid is gorgeous !!!Patty C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13839901542042816745noreply@blogger.com
