Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
Welcome back my Stitchy friends! I am travelling today to Kentucky via Nashville. I am not sure if this will really post on Friday or if it will end up being on Saturday.
I have a lot to share today as I forgot to share the September WIPGO last time I posted in August. Which means this is my first time posting in September where I share the results of August WIPGO. I am going to tackle these first.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #195”Hello Stitchy Friends! Wow! Summer is just zooming by. I can’t believe we are already down to just a week and a bit left of August. Then we will be into all. I hope you have had a great summer.
I did have a finish this week, but no new starts. I have a list of five things I wanted to start this month. This next week, I had better jump on that!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #193”Hello my Stitchy Friends! It has been another crazy busy week. I ended up missing stitching a couple of nights but still made some nice progress that I can’t wait to share with you! Let’s get started:
Once again no new starts or finishes.
While I may not have a lot to share this week, I feel pretty good with what I did do.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #192”This past week was another full week of learning. This time I took a 3 day class in Portland to “Master” my new Bernina 990. That’s sewing and this post is about cross stitch. I only mention it because it meant that I was in traffic for an hour every morning and 90-120 minutes. When I got home, I had homework to do for the next day. By the time I finished my homework, I had enough time to eat and go to bed so I could do it all over again the next day. Not a lot of stitching happened.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #190”Hope all my American friends had a great Thanksgiving yesterday. Mine was awesome. Good company. Good food. I did have a bit of a food coma afterwards. Rained most of the day but since I never had to leave the house, it didn’t bother me much. Hope all of you had a great holiday!
Overall, this was a good stitching week. I even finished one of my WIPGO goals for November. With just 3 days left, I hope to finish my second goal. Let’s take a look at this week’s projects.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #159”Hello Everyone! I started thinking about Thanksgiving this week. I am looking forward to good food and company. It makes it one of my favorite times of the year. I look forward to the fellowship!
The week was productive. I hit all of my weekly goals and most of my monthly goals. Let’s take a look at this week’s projects.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #158”It sure was a busy September. I was on the road a lot, so I missed quite a few Fridays. I had a great time at the Quilt Retreat at Zephyr Cove on Lake Tahoe. I shared a little more in the To Do Tuesday #156 post.
The latest trip took me to Redmond/Bend, Oregon for a long arm training with Gammill as well as a shop hop one day. Learned a lot and met a lot of great people. The teachers were fantastic! I can’t wait until next year to do it again when I have more experience with my retrofited Statler.
Hello from Steaming Pacific Northwest. We are having another mini heat wave here with it supposed to reach 102F (39C). Lucky for us it is only for a couple of days with over 100, then it cools off for the rest of the week in the 90s. Oh yea!
I have continued to diligently work my active wips for the month. Let me share my progress with you.
I have no new starts this week but one finish.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #151”This is a special day. My daughter is getting married. I am thrilled to be gaining a son. They have been together for seven years. How time flies. I will share photos in my next post. So let’s get to this week’s cross stitch so I can get ready to go.
Just one finish this week:
Continue reading “Floss Friday #140”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.
