A Strawberry Emery

Since completing my Stacy Nash Heart Pinkeep from the 2009 Group last month, I've been wanting to get the little Strawberry Emery finished as well. I thought, surely it can't be any more difficult, and I was right. I got myself sorted out yesterday with the idea to compete this little project. How fun it was to do. Not difficult at all, and I even added my own adaptation to the finishing. I'm quite pleased with how it's turned out.

Stacy Nash 2009 Group - Strawberry Emery

The extra something I added was not in the instructions but it was done on the heart pinkeep. I did very primitive looking crosses down the back of the emery. I thought it would tie in with the crosses on the outside edges of the heart.

I now have my first Stacy Nash 2009 Group project completed.

Now I'm just wondering what the next one will be. It would have to be something to do with Easter, don't you think? I know she's done patterns for bunnies before, so maybe it will be similar. I should be getting it in another month's time. We'll just have to wait til then.

Before I go, I just wanted to mention what happened last night. No, the power didn't go off again. :) We had an earth tremor. About 8:55pm I was sitting there watching The Wedding Singer (love this movie) on TV and all of a sudden I felt movement. In the first second I thought it was a wind gust but then it got more intense and then I realised it was a tremor. The floor started to shake from under me. In all it probably lasted about five seconds and it wasn't too bad - nothing damaged. It was recorded at 4.6 on the Richter scale. I rang my sister who lives in the same town as me to see if she felt it, and she had. We were both amazed by it all. Luckily it wasn't anything serious.
