Grab a drink and pull up a chair it's a big update today. I decided to put the computer aside and stitch so it's time to catch up today.
First up is Gifted Gorgeousness. I worked on several pieces but for this check in I will share with you another beach themed piece that my mom got me at the PALs retreat last year...
This one is called Beach Blessings. It's from Erica Michael's. I'm stitching it on 36ct 1 thread over 2 with GAST threads. I love working with them. They turn out so pretty. I started this one for the DUCJC Jan 25th. This is now 3 days of progress.
This weekend was a IHSW (International Hermit Stitch Weekend). I picked up the Spring Bell Pull from Stoney Creek. Here is where I got after the weekend on the P block...
Love the cute rabbit and adorable caterpillar on the top. My needle really fell in love with this block and I was happy to get so much progress over the weekend.
I'm also going to check in with the Monday Stitchery Link Party. Follow the link and see what some others have been working on lately.
A quick look ahead and my life is getting busy busy. 3 sleepies (how we count down to something haha) until we leave for a camping trip. 3 sleepies after that I leave on a trip with Mom and Jeremiah to Minnesota. Memorial Day another camping trip. Next weekend after that I leave with Fred for our anniversary trip. So I'm excited and yet thinking WOW. Hopefully I'll steal time for X's in there too.

Thanks for taking part in GG this month. The beach scene is lovely and the perfect reminder of the retreat.
Enjoy your sleepies and the camping too!
I hope you enjoy all of your trips. Your cross-stitch is very pretty. I love that P block. So adorable.
Beautiful stitching as always. I love the rabbit and the caterpillar. I think this design is so much prettier stitched than it looked on the front of the chart.
Safe travels and hope you have a great time.
Adorable little rabbit on this block.
Lots of lovely times to look forward to coming up for you
Oh that rabbit is so adorable, both works are beautiful great stitching
Sounds like some travel time to stitch, maybe? These look great!
Excellent work on both projects. Enjoy your trips and stitch if you can. You know there isn't a better relaxer.
Good to see you!! The colors in Beach Blessings so far are so soothing. LOVE the wee bunny on the "P", and the vibrant flowers are gorgeous.

Oh, how sweet is that little bunny? He'd make a nice little project on his own. Myrtle Beach is looking good too. Have a happy time preparing for all your trips! :)
Sounds like a busy time for you, Katie--enjoy all the trips and hope you get to squeeze in some stitching time. Love both of these projects!
Such nice progress on both your projects. These Stoney Creek charts often have nice little surprises, like this little spring bunny and a funny caterpillar, lol.
Enjoy your trips ahead!
