Who uses AdSense and likes it?
I was like ( _) this close to putting it on my blog, until I started reading all of the agreement terms. Really I'm just curious if it ever pays anything at all, much less if you like the way it ever looks on your blog?

Stitching Frenzy and HNT - Edited
**Edit** I added Christmas Pictures of the Spawn at the bottom.
I haven't blogged in about a week, but my connection is wonky and the space bar on my laptop is being defiant. The past week or so, I have put up the Christmas Tree, wrapped all of the presents, (mostly) and today it snowed. Also, I picked up my stitching that I started over a year ago, and started working furiously on it again. I still have about 6 quilts I have started and not finished completely yet.
I think I do these things in phases. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with Winter, or just that I'm attempting to use that as my reasoning for being a little crazy. I do Spring cleaning in Autumn too. For this HNT, I'm displaying my work on this particular piece. The title of it is called 'Illuminated Manuscript'. It can be found in Candace Bahouth's 'Flowers, Birds, and Unicorns: Medieval Needlepoint'. If you need a recommendation for needlepoint books, I highly recommend Beth Russell's interpretation of William Morris' designs too.
Please don't judge too harshly if you happen to needlepoint yourself, I'm still re-learning my tent stitch. :)
Here is my stitching, and the pattern I'm using.
You may not know that former happy goth girls enjoy quilting and stitching. Occasionally, we'll bake, but only if really really motivated!
Happy HNT!
