My Sunday Stitchy Update 06/02/24

Afternoon Stitchers!  I hope you had a wonderful week. 

This week I only worked on a couple of pieces but on one of them I finished all the stitching!  

I started working on the Happy Birthday Card to reach my acrostic goal but when I got to the number I needed I decided to keep stitching and the next thing I knew... I finished all the stitches! 

Happy Birthday Card
Astor Place
'Greeting Cards for All Seasons'

Finished 05/27/24
360 stitches finished this one off

Now I need to finish it off as a birthday card to be mailed in August to a friend of mine in Illinois. 


After I finished that up I was also finished with all my acrostics for the month of May. So with nothing in particular to stitch I decided to add some stitches to the Winter 2024 SAL. 

Winter 2024 SAL
Designer - Alyssa
Progress 05/31/24
added 630 stitches this week

The more I use this color fabric the more I love it! I am usually a white fabric kinda stitcher because I am not that good at deciding what colors to use but this color was listed as the preferred color so I took a chance and am I glad I did. I may just have to add a few pieces of this color to my stash. 

I have also been cleaning off my hard drive of old files and organizing other files to make better sense and so I probably won't be able to find them again when I need them!  When I wasn't 'organizing' I still managed to stitch everyday! 😊 

I also figured out my goals for June and here they are:

                  
I think these are more than manageable and I am almost finished with one already.

So that is all I have for you this week so I guess I am off to stitch until dinner. Today is breakfast for dinner; waffles and sausage links. Do you guys ever have breakfast for dinner? How about leftover dinner for breakfast? Maybe pizza or the side dish you had last night? 

Thanks a bunch for stopping by to visit me.
Stay happy and safe.

Congratulations on finishing that cute Birthday card, Faith! I love the color of the blue fabric, too, and the piece you're stitching looks wonderful on it. And yes--I truly love having breakfast for dinner :) I love breakfast, but don't often eat it in the morning as I'm usually not hungry until noon! Have a great day ♥
