My Sunday Stitchy Update 02/04/24

This may be the quickest post ever! My whole house is sick; coughing, sneezing, watery eyes, stuffy nose. and on and on but I am sure you get the picture.  We have all been vaxed so I don't know what is going on other than I am TIRED of this stuff!!!!! 

This week I have stitched a few different things. 

First I added some more to Shades of Gold.

Progress 01/28/24
Added another 292 stitches for a page finish.


Then I decided to get a little start on the bookshelf for the Temperature Library!

Designer - Kristi DiClemente

I 'plan' on finishing the bookshelf first and then adding the books and knick knacks when I am done. So far I stitched 392 stitches on this piece toward my goal. 


Then I saw this little cute Valentine piece on the DailyCrossStitch.com page and thought it would be a quick stitch. Why do I EVER listen to myself when I think it will be quick? LOL 
Progress 02/03/24
I stitched 241 stitches yesterday.

And that is a wrap for today. I have to go make a cup of tea for my throat, find my nasal spray so I can breathe, get some tissues for my nose, take a suppressant for the cough and a get under my warmest blankie for the chill. 

Thanks for stopping by everyone and I hope to
see you under better conditions next week!

Have a wonderful week.

My Sunday Stitchy Update 02/19/23

Good Afternoon Everyone! 

Just a really short post tonight because I am not feeling to well and I still need to get in some stitching.

First up I have the Monday's SAL Update!

I love how quick this file stitches up every week and I think that is what will help keep me current. Sometimes when the weekly installments are large, I skip them and tell myself I will do it next week.

Next up I have a new start and a finish!

Well now I think I am off for an ibuprofen and a nap before my daughter cooks dinner and I look for something to stitch. 

Thanks so much for stopping by,
see you next week with another faithful update!

My Sunday Stitchy Update 02/12/23

Good Afternoon Everyone!! 

Today I am just going to jump right into my stitching. This week I have been stitching away on the Happy Valentines Day piece but I also managed to add in part six of the Blackwork SAL.

So first up is the next part of the SAL.

Part six are the leaves that are filling in the width of the piece. I wasn't sure about using the orange on them but I think it makes it look kind of like an autumn piece. After I finished them I went back to the Valentines piece.

Happy Valentines Day
Finished 02/11/23

And this piece is now a finish!

I am leaning towards finishing this as a pillow. I have to see what I have in the fabric stash. Then I need to find something else to stitch. Maybe another Valentiny piece? I have never really stitched Valentines before so it might be a good opportunity.

Thanks so much for stopping by,
see you next Sunday with another faithful update!
