scans

HEY. remember like, two weeks ago, when i posted those pictures of my stitching directory? between now and then i have started reading three books, no four actually. i haven't got passed the first twenty pages in three (Catch 22, Perfume and Gil Scott Heron's memoir) that is no reflection of the books. I just can't get passed the beginnings. Although I only started Gil's last night and i know it's going to be amazing. I can't concentrate much, so I am probably going to read it again in a couple of months when my head's a bit more straight. I have read most of The Power of Now, by Eckhart Tolle. A darling friend recommended it. It's good, I like most of it. But I wish it would just fix my life. It's all when and good, knowing how to meditate, but how do I overcome my fears??

Anyway, so I have also gone and bloody scanned those stitching bits. My scanner is so close to being dead it's almost funny. It's almost screaming everytime I try to scan something. My cat used to spend a lot of time sleeping on it and I think at some point they had a fight and the scanner lost, it's now dealing with the injuries. You'll see those in a sec.

So my stitches.

Here we go (again):

The chain stitch had it's own post, like two posts ago, for your reference. I went to scan it and put it on the wrong way round. aha, i found this amusing. 

and there you can see my scanner working in it's full glory. check out how it's bringing new dimensions to scanning. you don't really want to see what you're scanning, do ya? you wanna see purple lines. yes i do. thank you kind sir.

i'm going to try and overcome my fears now. thanks, bye.

i just realised it was more like five weeks ago, damn, my concept of time is bad
