To Do Tuesday #8
How has your week been? Mine has been fairly productive. I worked on everything from last week’s list except one thing and even finished a lot. Feeling good. Last Friday was my Quilting Zoom Day with quilty friends. It was awesome and so motivating. Sometimes I wish we did it more often than once a month.
My orange kitties have been very helpful this week. Sitting on projects while I try to sew. Stealing my thread spools and pins. Even running around with thread and needles and scaring the crap out of me. Even now Simba is petting me while I am attempting to type. He has already walked across the keyboard multiple times. He is such a sweety when he is feeling helpful.
Floss Friday #3
Yesterday was actually a quilt day and this is really posting on Friday because I didn’t have time yesterday to type this up and Thursday was spent prepping for a productive Friday.
Just spent a few bucks on some new patterns that came out at market and I am very excited to be getting them. Meanwhile this last week I focused on meeting a few of my goals and my stitch time was limited so I didn’t get as far as I hoped.

Floss Fridays #1
It hit me like a ton of bricks this afternoon what to call this weekly blog for my cross stitch projects. While I meant to post last week, it seems that I needed to wait until this week for this creative inspiration. So instead of just one week’s worth of projects you will be getting two weeks this time which will make this post still a bit long. Although I did work on a few projects multiple days.

Cross Stitch Diary: February 2022
Still in catch up mode. This week we will take a sneak peek at my February projects so far. I participated in an instagram #stitchthewinterolympics which was fun if a little limiting. But sometimes you just have to change it up. That means a few projects I had intended on working on for the month have not even been started. With less than week left in February, I do want to get started on those projects. I will share next week with all of you.
