Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
Welcome to another edition of Floss Friday where I share what I have been cross stitching on during the week. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you can share any thoughts you have!
A little shout-out to Simba who wrote Tuesday’s post. Thanks Bud! I really needed the break.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #55”Can you believe July is almost over? Just a few more weeks and the kids are bacck in school. How crazy is that? This week has been pretty normal summer day here in San Jose, California. I hope everyone is enjoying their summer.
I am pleased to have finished my last two projects that I planned to finish this July.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #52”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”Whew! It’s been two weeks since I last checked in with everyone. A week of that was me off spending money in Reno on more quilting projects and supplies that I had not planned on buying! I went with my enabling buddies Mary Elizabeth, Toni, and Teri. We had a great time, shopped, ate, drank, and talked so much about everything under the sun. I am sure we solved all the world’s problems. LOL!
Obviously, I did take a project along and only actually worked on it the first night we were in Reno. I simply was too tired the other nights after being on my feet for hours. After getting home, I just sat in my chair and stared into space for a day or two. So not only did I not stitch much while on the road, I didn’t stitch much when I got back either. Despite all that I still managed to get stuff done. I have no idea how.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #47”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”How quickly the week has gone by. I feel like I ended April with a bang. I did get my 24 hours of cross stitching in and organized my upcoming month of May. It so nice to be home for more than a couple of days!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #41”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!
