Selina’s craft world

I am still around if anyone wondered. I update my myspace side as for now it is easier. A link to myspace can be found in my sidebar. I will be back home in pretty much a week from today.

Was at the doctor today to get my shots. One in my behind and one in my arm. Both do hurt, though not incredible bad. Not much else to update. We’re going to get the visas tomorrow.

Here comes the first half of the launch, next half is coming on Wednesday.

Let’s start off with the freebie first, now avaible at the store for everyone for free sign-up free download. I moved the freebies (well, there’s only the new one so far) to a side bar to download it anytime. Anyway, here’s the Christmas Flowers - Scissor Fob:

Another design of that kind is my newly created Christmas Flowers - Biscornu. It’s going to be a whole serious, I think, since I really like the style

Here is a funny named one .. Siesta. It’s fast to stitch and turned out very sweet. If you’re up for a little Siesta, that is your design.

Last but not least … the Song Of Love. That is part of my new finishing design called “Stitchy Travel Bag”. The instructions will be published either later today or on Wednesday

Hope you enjoy the first half of this months launch and are lookin forward to the 2nd part. Please pop over to linabear.com and check it out .. and blog about it

.. well, not quite yet, but closing to it. As my long time blog readers and friends know, hubby and I married on the 15th September last year. Sorry that the back dated entry has no pictures anymore, I moved the gallery recently. Photos can be seen here, btw.

Anyway, since I will be in Instanbul on the 15th September hubby and I decided to just go ahead and celebrate tomorrow. We went out to buy gifts after we set the limit. The limit was rather low since money is rather tight. Soon we will be swimming in the big bucks *coughs, coughs* … Anyway, Andy picked two DVDs for himself and I got a wallet and chocolate.

Now finally on stitchy news: I have all models ready for the new release, but will have to do them in two batches. One tomorrow and one on Wednesday… not sure yet though. There will be 5 patterns on sale and one little freebie. Expect photos soon

.. I must go to Istanbul for 2.5 weeks starting next week - which will sadly include me not being there for my first wedding anniversairy and Aireen’s first death anniversairy :(  That’s a double bummer.

Today we will pack up the instruments, laptops etc, on Monday I will get my shots and Tuesday we drive to Stutgart to get our visas. And Thursday early morning we’ll take off.

I am a little bit excited, but also very nervous. I just hate flying and it gets worse every year, not talking about that I am not very much into the country they assigned to us. Maybe I can find a lovely XS store there and can cheer up for not being with my hubby for so long …

So ., please pray/send good vibes to me for a safe journey and time there. And be sure I will take about a trillion of photos … which I will keep uploading to my photo gallery.

.. is finished … except the finishing part, which will happen tomorrow. I really love this one

My hands are doing better now, but still not all too well. I have a bad migraine headache and pains in my feet, so fun. It is not nice being always sick and hurty …

wow, doesn’t time fly? Sure does, here are my goals for this month:

Stitchy:
- finish the mini RR
- finish a few models
- finish Aireen and/or work on one of my biggies

Other:
- trying out new recipes

Not too many since I did horrible last month, but no surprise after all what happened.

I have not been on much, since I was trying to recover my hands by playing games and stitching a little bit a day. They still hurt pretty much, but getting better.  Sadly, the whole sickness things hugely threw me back in stitching, designing and working.

We got the money back for our broken bread maker and bought a new one from another company. So far it works alright, but ask me in a few weeks.

I also got the school thing sorted out which happenes to be a computer/database error. I am back in school.

Expect some stitchy photos later today.
