Sept 16th Monday Update - A Finish to Report

Hello readers though very few haha. I return for my Monday journal post. Let's see what I worked on last week...

Still going strong with the Magazine Monthly Challenge Facebook ABCingo. Given a letter every day and need 100 stitches to represent that letter.

Monday letter was O. So Owe them All Erica Michaels came back out for Day 2...

Since this one is tent (half) stitches you need 2 for 1 stitch in the online games which I understand even though 40ct is so tiny. I did 600 which is 300 in the games.

Tuesday the letter as N. So Autumn Time by New York Dreamer came out for Day 11. Stay tuned for that picture. I added 580.

Wednesday letter P so I pulled out Halloween Quaker by Primrose Cottage for Day 2...

314 added. Worked my way across the top and to the bottom right tree to check my material size. 

Thursday was A and Autumn Time came back out for a fantastic day of stitching 682 added to finish it!!!

(Finish #25) September 12th
Autumn Time
by NY Dreamer
Fabric 32ct Vintage Country Mocha Evenweave
Threads Suggested Specialty Threads
Started Nov 22nd, 2022. Took 12 Days.
Started before Counted Stitches. 2,049 in 2024.

Now just Summer Time left for this series to be complete. I'm already thinking about next year's series too haha. 

Friday was Letter Z and I could only think of one WIP that would work. Dragon Eye by Eva's Designs because it's Zoomed in on his eye. 624 for Day 11 added to this one...

Saturday letter E was called so Enchanted Pumpkin Mill Hill came out for Day 5 and 280 stitches...

Sunday letter G so Grow Together HAED came out for a very confetti heavy 128 added for Day 26...

I earned 2 bingo wins now...

So I get entered in the drawing. 10 letters left and I'm hoping for a full card. I went through and planned the rest of the letters out with WIPs so I am ready for them to be called at least. Today is letter F so I'm pulling out Forever in Peace since it's on my acrostic too. 

I have to share this adorable picture of Spike...

He loves to hide under our bed. But of course he doesn't want to miss anything. So he poked his head out and rested on the footstool we have. How adorable! Now he can watch us and hide same time haha. 

Our weather is crazy hot and dangerously dry. So if you can please send us rain and cooler temps. Have a great week. Love yourself. Smile as often as possible.
