Sep 2nd Monday Update

 I totally forgot to update last week. My brain haha. Let's have a fun look back at the last two weeks of stitching...

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday the first week I worked on finishing up Summer Quaker by Primrose Cottage

 Friday the 22nd I added Weeks 33 and 34 to the Peppermint Purple 2025 SAL...

I also added 284 to the 2025 Lola Crow Extraordinary Birds SAL... 

Over the weekend no stitching was done. I had a lovely date day with Fred on the 23rd. 

Last week Tuesday I worked on Noel Gnomes by Jardin Prive...

Getting close and I really want to finish this one up.

Wednesday I worked on Trick or Treat by Luminous Fiber Arts. Only added 106 then put it down to work on something else... 

Thursday I did the same thing with the Honey Bee Mill Hill Kit. Just 100 added to the wings...

 

I was trying both days to get some added to the Summer Time by NY Dreamer. I added 429 at least...

 I doubt it and When I Think of Summer by Puntini Puntini will be done in time for Fall but that's okay. So many lovely pieces screaming for attention.

I got 49 little stitches added to Creepy Christmas Village by Lola Crow before everyone showed up for Labor Day weekend. It was fun. Crazy and I'm exhausted but it was a fun way to celebrate the final big camping weekend. 

September is here! Wow. We have a fun vacation planned for end of the month. Our 2nd vacation without my mom. So weird but we are really looking forward to it. Sault Ste Marie, MI and Mackinac. Places my mom loved. Fred has only spent a few days in both places so it will be fun to have a week and a few days to relax and enjoy lots of things. We are so excited. If you want please check out my Flosstube for a peek at my September goals for challenge. 

June 30th Monday Update

 Another wonderful week of stitching all the things. 2 new starts. Let's go over it.

Then I worked on Beer Dragon from Paine Free Crafts. Added 400 for Day 122...

 Yesterday I worked on Yggdrasil but only 115 so hoping to work on it today again. I'll update it next week.

I am still going crazy because everything is screaming for attention.....old WIPs, New Start, New Purchases, Everything wants ME, ME, Me. I am trying hard to settle them down but how do I stitch on everything at the same time haha. Have a great week. Love yourself. Good luck stitching all the things! 

June 9th Monday Update

 I missed a few weeks. I was going crazy to stitch and just didn't take any computer time. I'm back. Let's see what I worked on during my time away (I did post my Flosstubes if you have watched but if not I want to post here too.)

Yggdrasil *Wooo* haha. Has been getting a lot of progress lately. This is my piece for #wipintoshape challenge. Here it was at the beginning for the May 5th start...

Here it is now... 

Very happy with my progress and will keep going for the challenge. I work on this a minimum of 1 Day a week on Sundays for the challenge. Enjoying every stitch.

I had a few new starts...

Far Better Things from Sweet Wing Studio. Using this as one of the Mental Health Care SAL pieces for May. Love the message. 

Honey Bee Mill Hill Kit. 

Black Pearl finally came back out. 

The Extraordinary Birds SAL from Lola Crow. I've been stitching like crazy still way behind haha... 

That's okay what a beautiful piece and fun to work on.

Started Liberty Squared another 40ct silk gauze Erica Michaels piece. 

The Peppermint Purple SAL I'm adding every 2 weeks...

Spring Quaker from Primrose Cottage was finished off finally this last week... 

When I Think of Spring from Puntini Puntini was also finished...

I was making myself crazy again with the pressure of my stitching. I admitted it outloud and immediately felt relieved. So I have been just enjoying my stitching again. What a relief. I love the challenges but I jump in way way over my head every time haha. So I weeded out a group I didn't really enjoy. Opened up my choices to cover all my WIPs instead of just a small amount. It's helped me so much!!! So I'm back and loving it. Okay you are finally caught up. I think haha. 

Feb 24th Monday Update

Let's see what I worked on last week. I was working on finishing up my February Plans...

Monday - Beer Dragon by Paine Free Crafts. Monday is always my busy catch up computer work day and now with Flosstube filming and editing. So 63 added to Beer Dragon was good enough...

Tuesday - The Pirate by Cottage Garden. Added 500 to this fun piece...

Saturday was time for a new start. I finally found the fabric at Always in Stitches in Noblesville Indiana. We ran down Saturday. Fred helped me pick out the fabric which was a gorgeous 40ct Prairie Land from Atomic Ranch it's a linen. I think the goose will really pop. So when I got home I got started on this beauty. 300 added Saturday and then Sunday was lovely and lazy so 700 added. So here is my first 1k in Trust the Universe by The Sunflower Diairies...

This beautiful Mill Hill kit followed me out of the store as well...
