Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
Hello my stitchy friends! It has been a wet and busy week. It was nice to find some time to stitch and unwind. I can not believe how fast February is flying by!
No new starts or finishes for this week.
Made some great progress this week. Let’s take a look.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #170”Welcome back my Stitchy Friends! We have had lots of sunshine here in the Pacific Northwest. I am totally enjoying every moment. How about you? My evening stitching time has been abbreviated this week due to life. I missed one night altogether because I was finishing a book. 📖
I ended up with no new starts or finishes. Although I did spend a day going through all of my projects I had pulled for January to figure out what comes next. I have a total of 4 friendstitch projects from December. I have decided to start three of them this month. Two are quite small and can be finished fairly quickly. They may rollover to February.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #165”Hello My Stitchy Friends. Welcome to this week’s update on my cross stitch projects. I appreciate you stopping by. While I did not stick to my plan, I had a good week. Let’s dive in.
No new finishes but I do have one start. I was definitely feeling festive.
I am still playing catchup (again) 🤣 I never posted last week because it was quilt zoom day and then I just … forgot. Oopsie! So here we are making up for lost time.
I have a bit to share with you but first wanted to just let you know I have been on a hunt for the fabric I knew I purchased for the June WIPGO project Field Guide to Dragons. I searched in all my unpacked cross stitch supplies (and realized I am missing all of my 14 ct aida hmmm). Then I realized that I probably had put it in the tote bag of cross stitch haul that still needs to be scanned and organized. I looked in that tote twice. I went to put away some recent haul from 123 Stitch and my new FQS Stitch Quarterly in THAT tote. Guess what I found? Yep, the missing fabric. What a relief!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #143”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.

December 26th was a very rainy day to contrast with today where we have sunshine. The joy of being in California!
I seem to still being have some focus issues this week. I have been reading a whole bunch and being distracted from stitching or quilting. 📚 All is good, I am planning a New Year’s Stitch-A-Thon to work on any WIPS that are on my goals list but might have been slighted during the month of December. 🧑🎄
Continue reading “Floss Friday #123”As with my quilting, I struggled to work on projects at Caitlin’s house. I was thinking since she now lives in a house instead of an apartment, that lighting would be better. Unfortunately for her, there is practically zero overhead lighting and I wasn’t prepared. Instead of stitching, I was doing.
I shared a lot of the things I did while in Vancouver and all the good food I had in my last post.
There are lots of photos. If you don’t feel like reading, take a peek at the eye candy.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #122”Hello Everyone from Vancouver, Washington. It was a foggy day as I drove in this afternoon but whenever there was a gap in the fog, we had sunny skies. I left sunny and bright San Jose with temps of 71F to be here with temps in the 40s. Now it feels like winter and the Christmas season.
Let’s take a look at what cross stitch projects I worked on this week as well as how November WIPGO wrapped up.
