Well we have FINALLY had some chilly days here in Arizona! Overnight freeze conditions to and what the news always tells us is "Don't forget the three Ps; wrap your Pipes, cover your Plants and bring in your Pets!" I, for one am not that happy for the colder weather and I am already looking forward to summer! I hope you are not having to cold of a week though January is pretty frosty.
For me this was another week for Brringo and then the upcoming week will be the last until the next game which I think is in September.
So let's get busy with this week's prompts!
The number called was 19 "Stitch something with words." That lead me back to the Winter SAL I have been working on.
I added 338 stitches to this one.
The next number I had to work on was 3 which was "Stitch something from a non-U.S. designer". I picked my 2024 PP Blackwork SAL from Peppermint Purple but I will show that one a little further down on the page.
After that it was number 17! "The Stitch something that relates to your first, middle, or last name." It was an unusual prompt but I have seen my name has in a million places over my lifetime. When I was a young child I thought God had named every church after me!
The next prompt was a super easy one! Number 8's prompt was "Choose your favorite movie – stitch on a project of your choice for the length of the movie." Well my favorite movie is Pretty Woman with Julia Roberts and Richard Gere and I love these two actors as well. While I watched it I stitched something from Brooke's Books. When I found out Brooke passed away from cancer I felt the need to browse the charts I had from her and found this cutie in my stash. Unfortunately I could not find a finished photo of it so you will have to wait!
I put in 141 stitches on her fancy hat!
For the number 4 I had to "Roll the dice!" I don't remember what that means, what I had to do or why I picked the chart I did but I worked on the constellation for Virgo.

This chart was a LOT of counting over and over again
because of all the blank space but I got it and 85 stitches!
The next number was 12 and I needed to "Stitch something that is monochromatic!" Well I just happen to have one or two of those so I picked the Peppermint Purple Blackwork SAL because I wanted to try to finish the borders on it!
Combined with the prompt above I had 331 stitches
and the borders are finished!
The number and prompt for Saturday was 13; "Stitch something that was gifted to you or that will be gifted to someone else." Sooner or later this is going to be a gift for my daughter.
I only managed 67 stitches last night because I was exhausted!
Which finally brings us to today, Sunday! The lucky number was 7 with the prompt "Stitch something that someone else chooses for you." Though when I am stitching this piece I don't feel so lucky! Though every time Jacob picks something for me; this is it!
Dinosaurs
Flumpkin X Stitchers
Only managed 30 stitches in over an hour!
It seems like 30 stitches is 30 colors though I know that's not right but it is close.
So that is all the stitches for the week. Thanks for coming to look at them!
I hope you had a successful crafty week as well.
Stay Safe and Stay Happy
