Hello my stitchy friends! I am so enjoying the summer day we are having after a couple of days of rain. We have beautiful blue cloudless skies. It is just gorgeous here in the PNW. The weekend forecast is for the mid 90s in the next few days. Let’s take a look at my eye candy this week.
Welcome to the first week of August! It has been a good week. the weather has been awesome – sunny and warm (but not too warm). It might even rain tomorrow – maybe. Loving it here!
I plan to link up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt again this week for To Do Tuesday. Thanks Carol for hosting. Check out all the great projects!
Welcome back my stitchy friends. Wow! It is now August. The summer is just zooming by. It is hard to believe that I have been in my new home four months. In some ways it feels like I have been here forever (because I am loving every moment) and in others it feels like I just go here (tons of boxes to unpack still).
I am slowly getting things together and have developed a pretty good daily routine which includes regular stitching. Meet most of my July goals so let’s take a look!

I meet both my goals for July which makes me super happy. Since I moved it has been quite the struggle to meet these goals. Slowly but surely things are coming together.
Welcome Back! We are now in the last week of July. Overall it has been hot here in the Pacific Northwest but not over the top except for a few days. I am definitely enjoying the gorgeous summer here in Washington. I am loving it!
I will be linking up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt again this week. Jump over and check out all the cool projects. Get some inspiration.
Where did the week go?! It has been a busy and hot week here in Vancouver, Washington. Worked on quite a few projects this week and attended a Virtual Cross Stitch Retreat (my first).
Starts & Finishes
I ended up having three finishes and one start this week. One of my finishes were unexpected and one start was unplanned but who can resist a new start?
Hello Everyone! Hope July is relaxing. It has been a hot one here in Washington State this July but not as bad as last year. We are catching a few more hot days this week before dropping back down in the 70s (Yipee).
Since heat rises, the sewing room gets a little toasty even with the AC running full blast. Luckily I only have to worry about that a few times a year. The plan is to link up with Carol over at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday again this week. Some of the ladies have so very cool projects. Come check it out!
Hello Everyone! It is so hard to believe we are halfway through July already. Times seems to be flying by doesn’t it? I hope your summer has been fun and productive at the same time. Remember to take time for yourself.
I am still feeling patriotic this week. While I did not work on both projects, I did make time for one of them. We will be checking that out soon, but first let’s visit new starts and finishes.
Welcome to this week’s update of quilty things. Hope everyone had a great week. We are surviving another heat wave. It seems to be the case all over the west coast.
I will be linkink up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt again for To Do Tuesday. Check it out.
Welcome to this week’s edition of all things cross stitch. It was a busy week with the cross stitch. Almost did everything I planned but got a little side tracked when I went all patriotic. 🇺🇸
Hello Everyone! Hope your Fourth of July was relaxing. It was my first in Vancouver. I didn’t SEE 👀 any fireworks 🎆 but I sure did hear 👂🏻it. Otherwiser it was a pretty chill day. The weather was overcast but nice. I enjoyed it before the heat 🥵 wave started on the Fifth.
