It took a Month...

Finished the September section.  Modern Folk Embroidery - MFE2021.

August section completed. 

Courtney Collection - Pelican (reversed).  Finished page 7 of 20.  Bottom left side.  

Stitching Comforts from Needle Bling Designs.  A design I bought, so I'm gonna stitch it.  It was a new start, and I got a long ways into it.  It's not a favorite.  I tried it on a different fabric, and then restarted it on white with dmc flossed. 

Blackbird Designs - Cats on Parade.  A finish.  On Gingerbread lugana PTP 28 count, one over one.  Used Anchor black.  Still need to do the stars for the top and bottom if you make it into a roll.  But it's not very big, so I'm not sure what to do with it.  Finish #10 for 2021.

That's a 4 inch ruler, and it's wider than 4 inches, but it does make you realize it's not very big.  

It was a weird month.  I had two teeth pulled.  I tried to give blood, and that failed.  I got poison ivy using my new string trimmer.  My energy is just zapped.  It was crazy hot.  I'm trying to do better.

Nothing impressive...

Newcastle Bouquet - Teresa Kogut.  Finished the border outline.  

                                         

Been almost a year since I picked it up.  It's back in the pile again.

Blackbird Designs - Cats on Parade.  Got this far before just burning out on it.

I got my second covid shot, and it just kicked my butt.  Dropped 7 pounds in 3 days.  I was worried about my kidneys shutting down.  So stitching was just out the window.  Still catching up on the sleep, but I am feeling much better.  My attitude is that if the dead virus kicked me that hard, the live virus would be really bad.  I did a restart on a project, but I only got a couple threads in, so nothing really to see yet.

Updating progress...

MFE2021 SAL - Fruits of Plenty - May.  Completed the 5th section.  Modern Folk Embroidery.
Floral Motif Sampler - Scarlett House.  This was the a new start.  On PTP Vellum 28 count lugana, one over one.  I love this fabric for this.  Using called for fancy flosses.  This fabric color has to be a new favorite for me.  I would have purchased more, but they were already sold out.
Blackbird Designs - Cats on Parade.  This was a new start.  Using black anchor floss 403, on PTP Gingerbread lugana 28 count, one over one.  Mine will not be very big if I make it into a pincushion.  That is why I put the floss and the ruler in the photo.  The camera flash is washing this out so never go by my photos for color.
