Selina’s craft world

Here’s how far I got with my dog today. It’ll be ready tomorrow.

I finished Linda’s elephant. It’ll be up on this Sat’s update.

I tried to stitch on Cinderella today, but it did not work .. so I decided to modell stitch bookmarks I am having since a while.

I also cut out a new dog. Linabear.com seems to have a go now, as I am about to get a big deal. There’s a lady running some bookstores and she is willing to sell my things.

I wish I had gotten farer, but it just did not work out.

just finished the cross stitching part of the Elephant, now on the backstitching.

I spent about 150 bucks today on medicine, and still only got about 1/3 of what I actually need. This sucks so bad.

Also, I forgot to say .. the stomach will take 8 weeks to heal and then it’ll be an unknown ammount of time until the rest of me will be ok, too. Seems like I will be sick the rest of the year.

Just came back from the doc, and oh boy – it’s definitely the worst case scenario

I can’t eat about almost everything I like or can stand – no beef, no pork, no milk, no chocolate, no wheat, no bread, no fish (might never get to eat fish in my entire life), no eggs, no sugar and everything like chemical (like food colours etc.)

In addition to that, I am also having a lack of vitamins, hormones (now that explains having no period since god knows when) and various other important things. All my problems are coursed from this issue, too – mood swings, being restless, no concentration, stressed out, tiredness, weakness, joyless etc etc etc

The recovery process takes over 8 weeks, then I need to be tested again to see what I will never be able to eat again. If it does not get better, I am in danger of getting real bad sicknesses as being blind, bone pains etc. and heart problems - which is a very dangerous thing as I already had a heart surgery as baby.

That’s it from me. I need to cry for a while now
Oh boy. I am more than just down and depressed now.

boy, do I feel awful today. Luckily, tomorrow is my doc apointment, so I will hopefully be better soon.

Today’s progress on the RR is quite nice. I was hoping to get the blanket done, but my condition won’t let me - ah well. I hope to get it all ready by tomorrow - let’s see.

Here’s the first WIP of my square for Linda’s RR. It’s a freebie from kreinik and I thought it’d be fitting nicely on that RR. I did not get to stitch much, as I was finishing off my Ornament.

I finished the BS. They were actually not was awful was I was worried about - luckily! They actually went ok. I must say I am very please how it came out. Very wonderful.

I am now working on finishing off the ornament. The pattern will be avaible for sale on Saturday!

Isn’t it lovely?

here’s today’s progress. I was hoping to get all done with the x-stitching, but it did not happen. Ah well. It’s coming along nicely, but I am already scared of the BS - heheh

I am not having the best day. Feeling so weak, stomache hurts and depressed. I wish I was married by now and away from my parents. I can’t take their constant fighting anymore. I could go to the apartment, but then I’d be all alone all the time .. so I rather stay with Aireen and enjoy my time with her. I really hope Andy and I will never turn out like our parents …

Sorry for venting, I will stop and post pics of my X-Mas Ornament in a few hours.

I started stitching another little thing today. It’s a Christmas Ornament that Andy and I designed ourselves. Can’t wait how it will come out.

It’s being stitched on 18ct Aida and has fractional stitches and backstitches - not too much fun, but it’ll be worth it. 14 or 16 ct would have made the ornament too big, I think.

I finished the stitching and the sewing together a little bit ago. This was also the first time I ever used beads, they were easy to add and look quite nice. It’ll be sent out on Monday. I hope the person getting it will like it and cheer up.
