Welcome to another week! I hope you had a great week and that you did not get any of the bad snow storms and tornadoes that have been going around. We have only had colder temperatures here and they made me miss my winter jacket! I gave it away when we left Illinois and headed for warmer days! Hopefully the warm days will come back soon.
Well the colder days are good for something! Sitting in front of the TV with the remote, a cup of hot coffee and some stitching. So let's see what I was able to do with those distractions in mind.
The first thing I stitched this week was this cute piece with the quilt on it. I have always been drawn to quilt designs and I think that is because of their symmetrical elements; though I haven't really stitched any because they never really fit in with the "decor" of our home. This time I decided I was going to stitch it anyway. I will just need to find a spot for them when I am finished.
I was able to put 446 stitches on this in two days.
Then I moved over to Jacob's Penguin. He is coming along nicely but it feels like he is turning into a chicken instead of a penguin! Hopefully he will switch back with the next stitch. 😊

After that I decided that the Stitch / Stash piece needed some attention. That purple flower was not looking to promising. Thankfully, I found that it was four stitches to high! So darn it, I had to rip it out so I could reposition it. I didn't get to the purple flower but I think it will be stitched during the next session. Guess I should buy the beads that I will use in place of the french knots now!

I put in 273 stitches on this.
Then I thought I would work on the kitty! I love this picture and the saying is a good reminder for people; have patience, take a minute and breath! The world is such a fast and busy place.
So that is it for the week.
I am thankful you were able to stop by for a quick minute or two to see what I have been doing. I hope you have a wonderful week coming up and you are able to get in lots of stitching. I am off to decided on somethings to stitch for the next week.
Stay safe and keep stitching.

Sorry about your cooler weather, Faith! It has been wonderful here--in the 60s and 70s this week (although tomorrow we are getting a random day of high only in the 40s!). But, you've made good use of the colder weather and done some great stitching. That little penguin will be so cute. Sorry the frog came to visit on the I stitch sampler. He's been visiting me, too, lately :) Enjoy the second half of March--another year speeding by way too quickly!
