Punch Out - Little Mac ...Update & Vespa News

Thought I'd take a moment and share my progress on my latest Punch Out cross stitch, Little Mac and Doc Lewis. I always hate doing the background color because it just takes so much time. Figured I'd approach this one differently and get some of that done before doing the rest. I don't feel like I have as much to do at this point so I guess that's a plus. :-D


I'm wanting to get started on another stitching soon, but I almost want to take a "1 project break" from the Punch Out series. Over at the Sprite Stitch Forums I found some patterns for Mario 3 world maps that I'd love to try. The 8-bit pixel looks and works so well for cross stitching. There's also a few smaller projects I have that might be more satisfying. Decisions, decisions.

In other news, I've been riding my Vespa PX150 scoot a lot more lately. I'm determined to build my confidence more on that little beast. So far it's been pretty enjoyable. I finally got myself a proper riding jacket. That's been nice for the morning ride to work. It's black with a pink stripe down the left and a band on the right upper arm. I'll post a pic of it soon. Our days are pretty warm now so I look forward to a summer of impromptu mini-adventures around town!! Planning on lots of pictures. We have reached an important milestone as well... It's been 5 years with scoot and 600 miles!! Here's a couple pics to commemorate this occasion


The on on the Left is pretty self explanatory. The one on the Right is just on a little ride to a school near my house I took today. I kinda thought if boys get to take pictures of their cars all mis-parked then why can't my scooter? Too bad the background wasn't something more epic and such. Maybe next time..!
