		<title>Rodeo Cookoff 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending the Houston Rodeo Cookoff when my maternal parental unit came to town.
The Rodeo here in Houston is a HUGE event, with the main rodeo and concert events taking place inside the football stadium:

We were meeting some people there and ended up walking the length [...]]]></description>

		<title>News from Nashville!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It has been two weeks since Market, and I think I&#8217;m almost recovered!
First, I forgot to post one of the new designs:

I&#8217;ll be using this chart to teach a class on different ways of using overdyed threads March 20th at 3 Stitches in Spring, TX.
Here&#8217;s a view of the hotel atrium with some of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nashville 2010 sneak peak</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s new and coming out at Market from Cross Eyed Kat!
First, the next three Advent Ornaments:

Christmas Lights (can anyone find a mistake in the model?)

Wreath

Stockings
Then a biscornu that uses Celtic knotwork to evoke an Iris:

The designs on the front and back are different, and I used Dinky Dyes silk to stitch this.
And finally, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Status Update: Getting There</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
So, I&#8217;ve officially finished all the stitching that needs to get done before Nashville Market.  Tonight I hope to get all of my photography done and if I&#8217;m really good, all of the chart layouts ready.  That probably won&#8217;t quite happen, since I need to write up some finishing instructions.
When I get the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trying to Think Christmas in February</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We just got all the Christmas &#8220;stuff&#8221; put away, so why am I trying to think Christmas?

Well, I&#8217;m behind on my Christmas Ornament designs, so I&#8217;m trying to work on that in my head while my fingers are stitching for spring!
Items accomplished from my to-do list for Nashville: One.  I finished stitching on the [...]]]></description>

		<title>So Much to Do, I&#8217;m Getting Dizzy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Are you dizzy yet?
The Nashville Market is just four weekends away!  This is a wholesale cross-stitch market where designers and vendors, like myself, attempt to convice the local needlework shops from across the country that we have The Next Big Thing &#8482;.  Here&#8217;s my to do list:
1. Frame and Photograph &#8220;Dragon Tattoo&#8221;
2. Make [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;ve been stitching</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here is my first ever, stitched and finished by me, biscornu:

For the record, I stitched the &#8220;Oak Tree Biscornu&#8220;, but didn&#8217;t do the finishing.  Also, for the record, stitching with white thread through two other white threads on white fabric is hard on the eyes, but I like the finished effect.
This design has a [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Toy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, after saving my pennies forever, I was finally able to splurge on a new Digital SLR camera.  It isn&#8217;t really a splurge, because it will get lots of use taking pictures of stitching model, and we already have a bunch of lenses from a short stint of portrait/event photography a few years ago.
Here&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ornament opinions needed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m trying to sketch out the last seven ornaments in the Advent Ornament series and I&#8217;m beginning to doubt myself.
Are Gingerbread Men Christmassy?
Is a single star too boring?
Sometimes it is hard to work in a square &#8220;canvas&#8221; space.  Also, I&#8217;m trying to have a good mix between relatively simple and Kat-crazy-complicated designs.
