Wow what a fun weekend we had camping. We made so many wonderful new memories. Jeremiah had so much fun! It stormed most the night Thursday night but we stayed dry and safe inside our tent. Friday we got a few more rain drops but other than that the weather was beautiful! It was our first time using our family's new campground area and it went so far beyond my expectations! Just can't be thankful enough. We can't wait to have the chance to go there camping again.
Now I'm trying to recover. Saturday was also the WIPocalypse check in. So let's see what I've worked on since the last check in on
March 23rd.
Spring Bell Pull -- 11 Days of Work. Here it was at the last check in...
Here it is now I really got hooked on this one...
HAED Hope -- 4 Days of work. Here she was before...
Here she is now...
Seas the Day -- I got finished up after 2 more days of work. It was a January New Start.
Year of Whimsy -- 3 Days to finish up the April Whimsy.
Halloween Mini's -- Put a day of work into the Pumpkin face I started in January. Not enough to share an update picture though.
Aquatic Maiden -- 1 Day of Work but it was at my stitching retreat so I got 1,000 more stitches added. Here is the before and after...
Beach Postcard -- 1 Day of work. Again not enough progress to share a picture though.
Beach Blessings -- 2 Days of work. After starting it in January. Here now with this one...
It's been another progress filled month for me. Now my life is getting busy though so I'm sure the next check in won't be as exciting to share. We are also given a fun question to answer with the WIPocalypse post...April 22 – Topic: What do you listen to while stitching? (via
Jo) I listen/watch way too many TV shows that get recorded to my DVR. I look up every now and then but I know I listen to them more than I watch them haha. The next check in is May 21. See ya then.

You had a very productive month, complete with some finishes. YAY for you!
So glad you had a good camping trip. We camped a lot when I was a kid and I have the best memories of those times.
That looks amazing! So glad you had fun.
Wow gorgeous progress! I'm glad you had fun!
Great progress and a great finish. I do the same, stitching while I listen to TV.
Oh wow! amazing progress :o)
I tend to watch/listen to TV while I am stitching as well... I also try not to watch something that might get me too engrossed so that I don't stop stitching too long!
Sorry hear that the weather wasn't too kind while you were camping but sounds like it was still a fun time!
Hugs xx
It sounds like a wonderful trip! Your work looks great!
Fabulous update! Happy to hear you had such fun on your trip:)
Well it certainly sounds like you had a great time while away :)
I can't believe how much progress you've made.
The Spring design is coming along so nicely and Hope!!! Wow, she's nearly done, surely?!
Wow, you got a lot done on your retreat!! Great stitching:)
What a great update! Lots of progress on your larger stitches. I really like Seas the Day, such a sweet reminder of your trip.
Glad you had a good camping trip.
Beautiful progress on all your WIPs!!
So great to see all the great progress you made on your projects. And you have many on the go, and such various ones. I also love to have a variety of styles in my projects. So you never get bored :)
And great to read about your camping adventures. You seemed to have had a wonderful time.
You've been so busy and got so much done! Love the Spring Bell Pull, it's so pretty. The beach themed stitches are fun too. Nice memories for you of the retreats.
Everything looking so pretty, Hope and bell pull are so gorgeous:) Glad to know you and Jeremiah had a wonderful time.
So much progress for the month when you put it all together like that, and some finishes too. You HAVE to keep Hope out now - Rachel says so!! ;)
PS Camping in a storm sounds fantastic and something I would LOVE to do. I love a good storm but we rarely get them in my area. :)
Beautiful stitching, Katie. Glad you had fun camping.
Your work is so beautiful. And I just love you do so many different things. So excited you love your Tenting. It is so not my thing - but love the fact you have a wonderful escape from every day life.
Beautiful work! Would love to hear where you went camping, we're only a couple hours away and always looking for a new spot to camp with our boys.
Katie, these are all looking fantastic! I've fallen behind in blog reading again, but just had the nicest time sipping coffee and following the adventures of your vacation. It looks like you are all having a fabulous time!
