Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
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.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #146”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. 🇺🇸
Let’s take a look at my projects for the week.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #145”Happy Fourth of July from USA! May we have many more.
I am thankful that it is not 100F like it was last year here in Vancouver, Washington. I am enjoying a quite day. The kids are camping and I am here at Starbucks working on this blog for you. Afterwards, I plan to go home and sit out on my patio to enjoy a good book? How about you?
Continue reading “Floss Friday #144”Hello Everyone! I have a few pictures to share from the Honeymooners who were in Grand Teton most of the week but migrated to Yellowstone yesterday. I thought I would share a few pictures with you. They have reported (and I have seen the pics) that they have seen a Black Bear with 2 cubs, a marmot, several different moose sitings, and of course bison. Jannes has never been to either park while Caitlin has been, she was only 6 when we were there last. So… it is an adventure for both of them on their honeymoon. So glad they are having a great time although 30 minutes drive to her house and then back again everyday is getting old. Enjoy these few photos.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #142”Happy Friday! While the weather here in the PNW is more spring like this week, it still has been a great week. I even got in a 4 mile walk with blue skies! Let’s jump into all my cross stitch projects that I worked on this past week so I can get you caught up.
I had one finish this week. I had planned a start but wasn’t in the mood to start a new project. I know! That is very Peggy unlike.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #139”While things are slow moving on the quilting front as I find and organize my 50 boxes of stuff, I have all of my active cross stitch WIPS with me. Now I haven’t been able to find my extra needles, my floss stasth, my fabric stash, or my inactive wips, kits, or patterns, that still leaves me with a lot to work with. Let’s take a look at what I worked on this week.
I initially thought I had nothing to share for this category. I already forgot that last Friday I finished a project!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #137”Wow! First Stitchy post of April. This move has definitely knocked me off my creative crafty horse 🐎. At least I did get some stitching done before the move and just this week finally got settled enough to get going again. I have a few challenges since I haven’t unpacked the craft/sewing studio yet. Let’s get caught up!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #136”I am happy to be able to work on my cross stitch projects during this time of chaos called MOVING. LOL 😝 I have some things to share with you for this week as things are going very well. Not sure how April will go but March has been pretty darn good! Let’s take a look.
I started my final project for March but haven’t finished anything new. I am close so next week I will share my final finish with you.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #135”Hello Everyone! Sorry about missing last week’s blog. Just had a bad week so this week will be a lot since I did stitch everyday this past two weeks. LOL! 😝 Still working on the move which will be the theme for the next month.
I am excited that I have already started five of the six planned starts for this month and one of the two finishes for March. After a mediocre February, I am feeling good about March. Let’s take a look:
I got a great start on this WIPGO project for the month. I am already 1216 stitches into my 1500 stitch WIPGO goal. Feeling pleased as ice cream over this one. I have been looking forward to starting this Stitch Quarterly project from a year ago. I love the vibrant colors and it is a delight to work on. In just two nights I am already over half done with this project. Just love stitching on this navy aida.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #134”Welcome back! This week has been a fairly productive week with all my cross stitch projects. I am looking forward to sharing what I worked on this week. So let’s get started!
