My Sunday Stitchy Update 06/28/20

Welcome everyone!

It is hard to believe that 2020 is half over already! It sure was a "different" kind of year that is for sure and I am almost anxious to have the other half fly by as well. I just want to get through all of the craziness the world is going through.

Anyways ~ last week I was working on Dog Lessons for People and I finished up all the stitching on it earlier this week. I think I want to frame this one whenever I get back into a store.

Finished 06/23/20

Don't look to close because you might see an error or two but I love it! So now it is time for the next one so I went to the magically box that holds all my Masterpieces waiting to be stitched and reached in to see which one would come out! Please insert the drum roll here...

My Sunday Stitchy Update 06/21/20

First of all I would like to say Happy Father's Day to all the Dads, Mom, Grandparents, Uncles, Brothers and anyone else who has stepped up and helped raise the children out there.

In our home my grandson Jacob's 'dad' didn't want to be involved so rather than no dad Matt (my son) stepped up and did stuff with Jacob. He can't do a lot because of his disability but likes to take him places like the movies and other fun spots. He has also shown him how to be a respectful young man. So in the place of Father's Day our family's tradition is to celebrate Uncle's Day to honor him for his role in Jacob's life. We have passed our holiday idea on to other families who now also celebrate Uncle's Day!

Now for the stitching...

As I mentioned in my last post my floss order came in! Yay I couldn't wait to finish up that moon.

Mini Finish 06/15/20

and then what do you know... 

I FINISHED all the stitching on the Halloween Banner!! It felt so satisfying putting in the last stitch.

Here it is with all the stitching finished. It still needs to meet an iron, have the buttons attached and to be FFO'd but for now I am HAPPY.

First Stitch 01/07/19

Finished  06/15/20

As you can see it took a bit of time because the frog seemed to visit this piece a lot but I love it.

After that I picked up another piece to stitch for the rest of the week; Dog Lessons for People. I worked on it and worked on it trying to finish it up this week but it didn't happen. I do think it will be finished in the next day or two though.

My Sunday Stitchy Update 05/17/20

Dog Lessons for People

This was my progress last week on the 10th

and here it is today!

Progress as of 05/17/20

I made pretty good progress on it. It needs two more lines and one word and it will be finished. I don't want to jinx it but I think the next time it is out I can finish it up. 

Since we are talking dogs I thought that you guys

might want to see our collection of dogs.

They are ALL rescues. Bowser and Scruffy are the "old guys" at eight years old. Then we felt we needed another for some reason or another, so we looked online and saw Appa. When we went to see him we fell in love with him but he was so attached to Damian that they didn't want to be separated from each other so they came as a set. We jokingly call them The Twins and they are now four years old. Then my daughter  wanted a puppy for Christmas and she went to "look" around at the shelter and came home with Samson. They are a handful but how could we pass up those loveable faces?

My Sunday Stitchy Update 01/26/20

Hi everybody!

This week I felt the need to break out one of my new starts and this one looked fun.

I started it on Wednesday and when it is all letters it seems to go pretty quickly so this is what I had stitched up by Saturday evening. This was gifted to a friend of mine along with the fabric and she passed it along to me since she knows Tia and her dog obsession. I love the dog paw prints on the fabric, they are a nice little touch.
