Stitching with the Housewives – Quilts & Adventures

Floss Friday #198

While this will post back dated (because I can), I am actually working on this Sunday morning. I do not know how the week got away from me. My personal To Do list has been so long for this week and I have been frantically trying to catch up after more than a month of travel. I leave Monday for my last trip (I think) for 2026. Pesky things like bills, taxes, food, laundry, etc all needed doing. When all I want to do is continue the fun I had creating at the quilt retreat. So…

Welcome back my Stitchy Friends! I worked really hard on trying to finish my September WIPGO projects and I did! I can’t wait to share the progress.

Hello Stitchy Friends! The quilt retreat has gone well and today is a travel day back home. So hopefully, I can finish this post tonight, if not then Saturday. 🙈. With so much quilting, cross stitch time was pretty limited. Let me share what I did do this week.

Hello my Stitchy Friends! It has been another crazy busy week! Home only for a few days before heading off for my next trip. Just one more after this one and one class then I can settle into a nice rhythm for a month or two. (LOL!) 😂

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.

Hello Stitchy Friends! Last post of August. Can you believe it! The week has gone by quickly. As usual, my expectations were much higher than my time to complete those expectations. But I made a nice dent. So let’s take a look at this week’s projects.

Starts & Finishes

One! Just one new start with plans for so many more. LOL! My grandiose plans 🙄 have not come to fruitation this month. Yet, I can’t regret being an optimist. So let’s take a look at what I did get started.

Once again no new starts or finishes.

WIP Updates

While I may not have a lot to share this week, I feel pretty good with what I did do.

Welcome my Stitchy Friends! It has been a pretty good week. Still busy but found some stitching time. I just want to share with you everything. But first ✋🏼 Let’s take a look at the results of last month’s WIPGO.

Floss Friday #190

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.
