Hi everyone,
This week has flown by. 

We've gotten some much needed rain. The ground is covered with pretty toadstools. We don't usually see these until fall.

Weekly update July 11th, 2021

Hi everyone, 

I keep planning on posting on Sunday - but somehow the day gets away from me & I wind up getting it done on Monday. LOL!

Stitching:

Just one project this week... I've been trying to plan out some future projects & get the needed supplies but I keep hitting roadblocks.. So it might just be stash diving for awhile longer. I did uncover some treasures that I had forgotten about.

Here's my progress on

Hi everyone, 

Happy Independence Day!

I signed up for the Summer Stitching Challenge at Embroidery.com. for the month of June. 30 minutes a day., and accountability photos. No needleminders awarded for this - just the satisfaction of getting the chance to stitch everyday! I completed 26 of the days.


Stitching:

Monday: Car inspection - no stitching...too warm when I got home. Picked up a book instead.
