Cross stitching!

Hello all!

 

My name is Melody, and I can usually be found on FB playing games (Royal Story is pretty fun), reading fics on AO3, reading books, or doing crafty type stuff.

My preferred crafts are counted cross-stitch and some occasional crocheting.  My most recent completed project is a counted cross-stitch saying.  Honestly, there have been times that having my cross stitch with me has been such a blessing.  Those are the times where I have had to sit for hours waiting for something to be completed for me, such as car work/maintenance.

My most recently completed project:

If you can’t read the second pic, the whole thing comes as a kit from Janlynn (www.janlynn.com) Kit #999-1012 ( https://www.janlynn.com/detail.cfm?ID=10197 ).

I have another in progress that I need to find some glass beads for.  I cannot post a pic of that one as some of the colors didn’t show up quite right in the picture I took.  However, as a consolation, I have added a link to BN.com that has the book I found the pattern in! ( http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/magical-cross-stitch-various/1121023244?ean=9780715324578 ).  I actually found my copy of the book in a second hand bookstore locally.  I love Half-Priced Books, I spend way too much money whenever I visit it.

Fics I have been reading:

I have been reading a lot of Adoptive-Daddy Yondu stories on AO3 lately after seeing GotG Vol. 2 just last week.  I’ve spent some time going “Awe!  That’s so cute!”

Favorite fan fic?  In what fandom?  I have so many!  If I go by the ones I tend to read again and again are by KM (HP, Trek, ect.), Sherza (Damaged Defenders for the win! It’s an Avengers gen fic), Rise by VR_Trakowski (JA Fic with Jupiter/Caine).

My favorite book books?  I have to choose just one? I am not sure that I can choose just one!

Top favorite authors are Mercedes Lackey, Anne McCaffrey and LK Hamilton.
