Meari's questions
1. Do you have a SABLE (stash acquisition beyond life expectancy) situation? Of course I do, silly girl.
2. What is the most favorite vacation you’ve been on? There have been a few of them, Hawaii, Nova Scotia, Chattanooga. I am looking forward to adding a lot more to this list.
3. Have you ever entered your stitching in a competition? Yes, in the local fair a very long time ago. I even got a trophy!
4. Cat or Dog? We have 2 cats. I would love to have a dog( preferably an Irish Wolfhound or a sloppy Lab) but the schedules that my husband I have always had keep us away from home for long work days. Someday, we will have a dog.
5. Have you taught anyone how to stitch? Like a child?No. But I think that everyone always shared tips with their stitching friends.
6. What is/are your favorite TV show(s)? The Closer, The Killing, Mad Men. I watch too much of Investigation Discovery channel while I am stitching.
7. What is your favorite stitching tool? My scissors.
8. What brands of floss have you used? DMC, WDW, GAST, NPI, Crescent Colors, AuVera Soie, and I am sure that there are others.
9. Are you adventurous when it comes to trying new foods? Yes. When traveling I always want to try local places versus chains. I also lived in Japan and i had to be very adventurous then.
10. Do you like kits or do you like kitting up your own? It depends on the project. For a sampler or large project I like a kit because I don't have a local shop. Smaller projects I will stash dive for.
11. If you could do anything for a day, what would it be? I would spend another day with PopPop (my Grandfather).

OMG Chris! I just found ID on my cable and I am so addicted to it. I stitch much better to tv I don't have to follow that closely.
Hey Chris! I use glasses for anything. ROFL You lived in Japan! Wow!
Hi Chris, for a bit of fun I thought I'd answer your questions!
1. Halloween, closely followed by Christmas.
2. I don't eat breakfast (although I did when pregnant). I know it is supposed to be the most important meal of the day, but I find if I eat breakfast I'm ravenous for the rest of the day!
3. I never stitch in public. Very few people know that I stitch!
4. Auto
5. I love satin stitch (but I hate french knots - yuck!)
6. No pets, but my family had several dogs when I was growing up. Our last dog was a King Charles Cavalier called Scarlett.
7.Cross stitch only!
8. My day has to start with a de-caf tea. I haven't had any caffeine since falling pregnant with my son.
9. I have to take my glasses off when I stitch! Age?!
10. You will have to explain to me what a potluck is! ;0)
11. I haven't done any stitching at all today! But I did look through a few cross stitch mags to pick out my next exchange project.
Have a great day. I hope you're enjoying nice weather in the US...it's horrid here in the UK. :0(
Thanks for playing along! :) Here are my answers.
1. Christmas
2. Instant Oatmeal, usually. Flavored, of course.
3. Yep
4. Automatic, but I can drive a stick.
5. Not fond of specialty stitches, but Queen stitches are pretty.
6. Celeste
7. Cross stitch, but I tried Hardanger earlier this year and liked it.
8. Usually water, but I'm a tea drinker.
9. I *have* to wear glasses or I'm considered dangerous while driving, LOL. I wear glasses and mag eyes when I stitch.
10. I don't have a standard dish that I take. Each time, I try to come up with something different. I've taken kebobs (bit hit!), pasta salad, meatballs, etc.
11. Japanese Garden
