My Sunday Stitchy Update 08/03/25

Happy Sunday!  Welcome to August and I am glad that you were able to stop by.  I can remember when we were small and we always thought August was the hottest month of the year but I guess it is really July in most places including Chicago where I lived most of my life. In Tucson though they say August is the hottest month of the year and I can believe it! We are still having lots of hot weather with  barely any rain I am getting in some stitching. 

I know, I know... I fell behind with emails again this week but I am definitely going to catch up, during the upcoming week I hope! I hate when I fall behind so I don't know how or why it is always happening to me. I think I get so but I much junk email that I get tired of going through it. I spend more time deleting and unsubscribing from junk than I can stand. What I want to know is how they always get my information. 

This week I was finally able to finish copying the Snowman chart so that I could actually read and stitch it easier! The only problem is that I also saw all the mistakes I made doing the outline of the chart, oh well. I took all of that out and started again. Didn't do to much on it this week but some is better than none. 

Put in 274 new stitches this week.


So after a couple of days on the Snowman I switched over to the 2024 Blackwork piece when I went to the Mall. After I got home I just kind of stuck with it for the rest of the week and it is over half way finished! Once it is finished I can start on the 2025 version!!

Put in an additional 480 stitches this week.


Tomorrow I plan on going back to the Snowman at home and I am not sure about what I will stitch at the Mall because I will need to spin the tiny decision wheel.

Thanks a bunch for stopping by and please don't hesitate to stop by again next week!

Love you guys!
Stay safe but stitch a lot!

Greetings Faith: I am really looking forward to seeing the 3D snowman, I love snowmen but do not like snow it is too cold here in Minnesota.
Lovely progress on the Peppermint Purple design, you are so close to finishing.

Meanwhile down under we are experiencing a very wet and cold August so far. I'm not complaining, Winter is my favourite season. I wish it was at the end of the year like yours though. I've always wanted a snowy Christmas. Not that is snows at all where I am.
Both your wips are coming along really well. D'oh about the frogging that you had to do though.
