Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
Happy Friday everyone! Another gorgeous Fall day here. Woke up early as I still adjust to the time change. Well let’s take a look at all my cross stitch projects that I workedx ont his week.
I got everything I planned plus a little more this week with starting 3 projects and finishing 2!
Last Friday of October already. Honestly this week has felt like the last week of October but I still have 7 more days of October! How exciting. The November WIPGO projects are out and we will take a peek. By default, that means we know the December projects as well. I have chosen not to go there. I am excited about winding down October and starting on November. Let’s get started!
The goal each month is to work on the project at least five times or have a finish.

This week I was able to finish TWO projects! So exciting.
We are experiencing pleasant late summer early fall weather with temperatures around 80 for the next few days. A welcome reprieve from the 90+ temperatures earlier in the week. I am looking forward to fall. It is truly my favorite season of the year. Nice temperatures, beautiful weather, kids back in school. Just love it.
I have all these fall projects I want to start so I have made a push to try and finish all those projects close to being done.

Let’s take a look at what I worked on this week.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #100”Welcome to this week’s edition of all things cross stitchy. I spent the last three days attending a virtual conference on my latest hobby of surface pattern design. It was fun but would have been more fun in person. Got some great new ideas and some encouragement that I am headed in the right direction. This surface pattern design journey reminds me of my quilting or cross stitch journey. So much information, so much enthusiasm, a so little courage to go for it. 😂
Moving on to what I worked on this week. I ended up taking last night off but I still worked on a number of projects this past week. Let’s check it out.
Continue reading “Floss Friday #97”Hello Everyone! The weather here is San Jose is slightly less sweltering than the last two days. Thank goodness it has at least gotten down to 70 every night. It is very rough when it doesn’t cool down even after the sun has gone down. Next week I will be heading out to Reno for the Reno Quilt Festival and visiting with friends. We haven’t decided whether we are coming home next Friday or Saturday. It is possible I might miss next Friday’s post.

It’s been a productive week being home. Worked on non creative stuff this week that need to happen which is always good. Now on to the fun stuff.
Just one new finish this week
Continue reading “Floss Friday #92”Happy Friday Everyone! We have a gorgeous bluebird day today with predictions of rain tomorrow. Don’t you love Spring? Sunny and warm one minute; cold and rainy the next.
I did not realize until I was checking my stitching calendar that I had one finish and one start.
Whew! Finding these photos was a chore. A few years ago I didn’t do a good job labelling my photos. I wanted to show how I have finished this Let’s Talk Series when I finished the framed chart in April. I look forward to finishing all of these! I love these colors!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #89”Happy Friday! It is a relief to have tax day behind us here in the US. Of course, being retired my return is pretty straight forward but it is still a pain in the ###. I would much rather think about all the fun things I could be doing instead! So let’s talk cross stitch today on this gorgeous spring day in San Jose.
I worked on one of my WIPGO projects this week – Year of Celebration Season 2 with one finish and one start as well as one other new start.
