Today’s SBQ is:
Do you stitch “on the go?” (On the commute to and from work, during your lunch break, waiting for the kids, etc.) If so, do you have a specific “travel” project or do you just grab whatever you happen to be working on and take it with you?
Yes, I do stitch on the go, or at least I used to. Due to the headaches and my tendency for wrist problems, I’ve stopped stitching in the car during the commute. This is hopefully only temporary, as I can get a lot done during those times. I never stitch at work (it’s partially an image thing and partially because I never take an actual lunch break) and Terry’s been the one doing all of the waiting lately, patient fellow that he is! Perhaps he needs to learn how to stitch? 😆 I have a DMC needlework bag that stays in the car which contains several small projects, like a couple of hardanger ornaments and a very small bookmark. There may be other mysteries lurking inside but, like I said, I haven’t looked in there in a while! 🙂 We’ll be driving up to my parents next weekend for Easter, though. It’s at least 3 and a half hours, so I should have plenty of time to stitch, if it’s bright enough outside.
I envy you being to stitch in the car – I get so travel sick, it’s just useless – it would be perfect to be able to sit back and stitch while someone else does the driving … ah, heaven!
I am unable to stitch in the car either, but not because I get carsick. I just am compelled to look at everything all around me, and have since I was a very small child. Perhaps that’s why I have a pretty good sense of direction. I even found the old family farm in South Dakota thirty years after my last visit. 😀
