Floss Friday #22

How time flies when you are having fun! I was just reviewing my October progress and November goals in regards to my cross stitch. October felt amazing! Only 2 starts, but 6 stitch finishes, and even 1 Final Finish! What a great feeling.

I am looking at my November goals and I sure am optimistic. I have myself starting 3 new projects and finishing 6 again this month and even made a list of 6 possible final finishes. Whew! And that is with a holiday and much travel. Hmmm. Oh well, if you don’t reach for the stars, you never get there.

Starts & Finishes

No new starts or finishes.

Final Finishes

No new final finishes.

Works in Progress

As you may have recalled we were in Chicago when this week began. I only took one project with me so it is not surprising that I spent a lot of time on this project and didn’t work on very many other projects. This next week will be a bit different.

Autumn Beauties 2021 SAL with Fat Quarter Shop

I worked on this project mostly. Although, I felt we was always on the move over the weekend from airport to hotel to rink, etc. Of course, you have to eat as well. When you go with the whole team, it does not leave much free time. I managed to finish my border and start working on the sunflowers. I hope to finish page one of the chart this upcoming week.

Woohoo! I am so close to finishing this one that I am not going to let up until I am done with this one! I finished one side of the border Wednesday night and will continue working on this each week.

  • Start Nov 9 path
  • Start Prim Stitch #9
  • Work on MFE2021SAL project April page
  • Finish Center of August Cottage of the Month
