Floss Friday #26

Things have gone very well this past week. I am trying to make sure I touch all of my active WIPS this month. I use to rotate through the WIPS but I found that it was taking forever to finish projects, but I made progress on everything. The month of December I am attempting a hybrid approach. I plan on making sure I work on everything this month, but continuing to work daily on things that close to being finished. Only time will tell if this is going to work.

So happy with how this week has gone. I wrapped up November finishing 4 WIPS and only starting 3. So that means my WIPS are down to 21. I am not sure if I will reach last year end’s number but I am feeling pretty good about the outcome.

Another week on the road. I feel like I made pretty good use of my time this week. I hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving. Here is a recap.

Floss Friday #23

It’s been a typical week. We’ve had lots of hockey practice and running around like chicken’s with our heads cut off but I still managed to have some time to stitch. I’ve even checked off almost everything on my list this week. Only thing left was a Final Finish….

Welcome to another Friday where we look at all things stitchy – cross stitch anyways. I have been diligently working on my upcoming finishing class project and have my fingers crossed that I will actually finished in time. I had hoped to have both sheets of perforated paper stitched. Close, but not close enough.

Welcome to another Friday update on all things cross stitch in my life. Last time I also threw in some vacation photos. I hope you all enjoyed them. Retirement for me was not a planned event so the transition has been a tough one for this past three years. Although, I was not 100% retired until last October. I am not sure if Covid helped or hindered my transition but it surely screwed with my health. On the other hand, it was when I stepped back in the world of cross stitch after 35 years. Today’s world is very different from the cross stitch I knew in college.

Wow! It’s been a whole month since I last posted. Summer Vacations are so important to replenishing your creative and physical stores so you can carry forward.

Floss Friday #11

I got a little distracted this week with the holiday so only worked a few minutes each night on one of my projects. I also started Lori Holt’s Granny Square Crochet Along. It has been years since I crocheted anything. I forgot how relaxing it can be.

So this should be a fairly quick!

Floss Friday #10

Hello Stitchy friends!

I’ve been off have been off having adventures and time got away from me. I can’t believe it has been a month since my last post. I will try and keep this short which shouldn’t be too bad since I can’t remember how I was feeling when I was stitching most of this any way. LOL!

Floss Friday #7

Welcome Back! It Friday before Mother’s Day and I feel like the week has not been as productive with my Cross Stitch this week. I am sure that is because I didn’t stitch on something new every day this past week. Let’s see what I did do.
