Horse Update

For those just now checking out my blog, this is an adaptation of an antique horse mat that is on my frame right now.  For you others who follow me I'm sorry if this is redundent  But it is a great way for me to view progress and see what needs top be tweaked.
As you can see comparing my rug to the antique below my colors are different.  However, I am using a darker value where is required yet using what I have.  
The plan is to use only my left overs and the wool worms over dyed (shown in a previous blog post).  Haven't figured out what choices to make for the tail but won't be almost invisible like the antique.  

Binding of the sheep has been stagnant because once I get the hook in my hand it is glued in.  Each day the plan is to bind the sheep for 20 minutes and THEN hook.  Uh, hasn't happened since starting hooking on the horse mat.

Craziness is happening with my followers again.  The other day I gained a person after having lost several in previous weeks.  So I thought Google had gotten their s**t together removing all folks who had a yahoo, aol or other email address and didn't have a Google email.  Well today I lost another 16 followers.   

No way I believe the followers don't like me.  Think it is because the people who join are being held captive until they become a gmail person.  Hey, Google, what the hell does that prove?  Do you really want to put yourself out there to say...."it my way or the highway?"

Okay folks, if my blog disappears overnight you'll know why.  Google decided to say "bye bye".

Hope everyone has a great night.

  2. I've lost another follower since this morning. In all, it's over 20. I know it's only a number, but I liked my bigger number better...lol.
    The horse is coming quickly. I am jealous. Still nothing on my frame but What Nots is FINALLY bound and tonight I'm starting to bind the stag rug. Plus I have 2 more hearts to finish...then maybe I can hook!!!
    Hugs :)

  4. I'm still here admiring your nice horsie and I lost a follower too. with so many google accounts it will probably take a while.
    Just for the heck of it, I wrote every name of followers on a paper so i can see who Google stole from my followers... I have followers I never hear from and I have no idea who they are. As long as I don't loose my regular friend followers. I'll be OK with that. I was down to 169 the last time I look.

    Nothing happening on whipping my rug, at least, I'm pretty sure it won't disappear over night. lol.
    Oh I forgot my hug, thought you might think I was taken that away from you too.
    Hugs, JB

  6. Now I know why I have to go to my bookmarks to find your site. I am not planing on getting a gmail account since we do know how to contact each other.
