Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
Wow! 50 posts on cross stitch only. It has been a fun journey for sure. This upcoming weekend is WIPGO weekend where I will be working on my active WIPGO projects only.
I only planned on two starts this week but decided to throw in a third. Check it out!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #50”Happy Friday everyone! It is a crazy thought that we are already in June. Update on the water leak. The subflooring of the shore was a sponge so they tore that out as well. As of 9:30 last night, the new shower floor and pan have been built and waterproofed. Now I have to wait at least 24 hours before they move forward. So since it is Friday, I probably won’t see anyone until Monday. I hate living in limbo but am very happy that the project is moving forward. I hope that next Friday everything will be done.
Now for some stitchy talk. I missed a project last week so we will show it this week in the WIP update section. Overall May was a good month. I started six new projects and finished five projects. Because of the house full of contractors, I do not have my paper cross stitch journal so not sure where I stand on Ending WIPS. I will touch base next week hopefully.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #45”It has been a pretty productive week. I have spent some time organizing all of my kitted projects that still need to be started. It turns out I have a lot of those. LOL! I finally made a list just so I know. Over the past three years I have been a part of quite a few stitch clubs which came completely kitted. It feels good to KNOW what those are.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #44”Wow! April has been a busy month. Somehow I was out of town every Friday of April and never posted anything since March in regards to my Cross Stitch which I post under Floss Fridays. I have a lot to share with you!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #40”Happy St Patrick’s Day! Hope this finds you with plenty of green beer and irish stew.
Just recovering from feeling not quite sick, but not quite myself. Just Blah! Today was my first day feeling even semi-normal. It must have been the chicken noodle soup and herbal tea that did. Well… Maybe the extra sleep too.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #37”Hello Everyone! Our trip to Arizona was very good. Shaun and his hockey team did well. We went there to play against some good teams in preparation for upcoming California State Championship. The weather was pretty much the same as California bouncing around from freezing to pleasant every day we were there. They got to play a lot of different teams from Canada, Virginia, and Arizona. Very good competition!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #35”With 24 hours of cross stitching last weekend, I made great progress. So let’s get started!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #32”Hello Fellow Cross Stitchers. January has been a crazy month in my little month as I have been travelling with my grandson Shaun for hockey the first half of the month. Not a lot of quilting or stitching has happened in my world recently, but definitely more stitching then quilting just due to portability of the hobby.
Continue reading “FLOSS FRIDAY # 31”Welcome to 2023! My first post of the new year. I missed To Do Tuesday this week because I didn’t do anything. Okay not much. So we are jumping into Floss Friday instead. We have a lot to cover since I participated in #NYE12x12 #TeamWIPs.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #30”Well I started this blog 4 hours ago. LOL! I got totally distracted by my sister. Can’t believe we talked for so long. Interesting (as always) about leaving legacy behind for our kids – from a family cookbook, life story, and many other ideas. Which obviously talking about those who have passed and us not getting important information from those loved ones to pass on to the next generation and beyond.
