Welcome Back Stitchers! It has been a busy week and I missed my quilty post on Tuesday so I will be setting that up for next week if you are a quilty follower. Today I am in Michigan for 141 Designs Spring Break Retreat and I am excited to be here. I got in late Wednesday night and the retreat starts on Thursday. I know I won’t have time because I will be having too much fun to actually write this on Friday. So here I am on Thursday typing up this post for tomorrow.

Floss Friday #180
Welcome back for some cross stitch goodness! Last week we went in depth on my Cross Stitch WIPGO results for April (and past month goals) as well as to diving into the May WIPGO projects. I was pretty focused this week and went with finishing a goal before moving onto the next project goal. I know..a little unusal for me. It is just where my head was this week. I feel good with the results.
Let’s jump in.

Welcome back to Floss Friday where I share my cross stitch projects. It has been another busy week with life happening left and right. I ended up missing getting any quilting done (until today) as well as missing my To Do Tuesday blog. #sigh. I had nothing to share. Days went fast and before I knew it, it was evening. Still needed to cook and eat dinner, so even my stitching time was abbreviated. I did work on projects.
Let’s start with a WIPGO update.
Results of April WIPGO

April was a WIPGO heavy month but short on time to complete those goals.

Gorgeous sunny day here in the Pacific Northwest. I was outside enjoying some of that sunshine with the cats who were cracking me up.


Went for a walk in the neighborhood today. First thing that happened was being greeted when I walked out the front door by two birds. It took me a minute to figure out they were chattering at me because I was standing by their nest.

It has been two weeks since I posted. Check out my quilting post for all the fun I had at the quilt retreat here.
I was very optomistic about how much cross stitching I would get done. Surprise! Yet I still managed to get a wee bit of stitching from time to time. I did take one of my WIPGO projects.
Starts & Finishes
There were a lot of down days this past two weeks. I would like to say they were all while I was at the quilt retreat but that would be a fib. Yet I was able to finish one of my projects.

Welcome back my Stitchy Friends! We have a lovely sunny 60+F day here in Vancouver, Washington. The sky is this amazing blue which is so nice to look at after a few days of rainy clouds. Still a little too breezy for me, but I sure love looking at the bright blue sky!
