@silkenpaw hey there. how are you doing? And why are we still up?
@typist
I'm great! I was/am up because I am embroidering Christmas decorations. You have to run the machine slowly for metallic thread because it's a pain and tends to break.
@silkenpaw Those are gorgeous. You're a whiz with those. Are they for y our tree?
@typist
They are for my tree and to give away, I particularly like the white ones because they are made of an opalescent thread that really resembles ice. Doesn't show on the photos.
@silkenpaw That sounds outstanding. Ice for winter holidays is great.
@typist Even when all you can get is imaginary ice, LOL. (Well, except what's going on in my freezer - real icicles that need to be knocked off with a mallet.)
@silkenpaw Oh I remember upstate NY and the 15 foot long icicles so fondly. Definitely needed a mallet for them.
@typist I always lived in apartments while in New York, so don't know that particular joy
