Quilts & Adventures

Floss Friday #173

Hello Stitchy Friends! It has been a very busy week and the next week looks to be just as busy. Let’s take a peek at what I have been working on this week.

Starts & Finishes

Just one new start for this week.

START: August Square Dance by Heart in Hand

I got a good start on the next in this series that I am working up as one yearlong banner. The theme is beehives. 🐝.

WIP Updates

The rest of the week I worked on my list of WIPs. I only got to stitch 6 out of 7 nights and some nights it was for only an hour. Progress is progress.

Rolling into my second week of March feeling real good about what I got accomplished last week. How about you? I had a great Friday on a zoom call with my quilty friends. It was a good day hanging out with friends.

I plan to link up with Carol at Quiltschmilt for To Do Tuesday. Just go to her last blog post for the current link.

Floss Friday #172

Hello Stitchy Friends! Another update on what I have been up to this week on my cross stitch projects. Felt like a good week!

FINISH: July Square Dance by Heart in Hand

To Do Tuesday #173

Wow this week flew by! I can’t believe it is already Tuesday again. My calendar has been packed with “doing things”. Still attending a number of live Zoom seminars on various subjects which are interesting as well as meeting with vendors for my home as I gear up to do some sewing studio basic upgrades such as wiring and lights. Plus some shades for each of the sewing rooms. PNW is an interesting beast with the darker winters and the very light summers. When the sun shines, it is unbelievably blue skies. When it rains, we have some many shades of gray that nature provides that it could teach fabric & quilt designers a thing or two about color.

I will be linking up with Carol’s Schmilt To Do Tuesday again this week. Just click on Blog Post at the top of the page to find the link to To Do Tuesday for this week.

Floss Friday #171

Welcome back my stitchy friends! It has been crazy busy week as I have spent time indulging my inclination to learn. I just love to learn! I haven’t learned any new things about cross stitch this week, just enjoyed the process on making little “x”s.

Starts & Finishes

I only had one new start this week. Starting is always the hardest thing for me. This is one of the reasons I have recently been starting projects that have been on my bucket list.

To Do Tuesday #172

Rain. Rain. Rain. We are full on PNW winter now. We need the rain and the snow pack. I have not seen the sun often this past week, but it has peeked out 🌥️

I will be linking up with Carol for To Do Tuesday again this week. The link is below.

Floss Friday #170

Hello my stitchy friends! It has been a wet and busy week. It was nice to find some time to stitch and unwind. I can not believe how fast February is flying by!

Starts & Finishes

No new starts or finishes for this week.

WIP Updates

Made some great progress this week. Let’s take a look.

To Do Tuesday #171

It is here. ☔️. The rain has arrived here in the Pacific Northwest. We even had a little sleet yesterday. They said it would snow. I couldn’t see how that would happen. It is just not cold enough. The cool thing about the rain here is the sun often peeks out through out the day. 🌦️ So cool. I even seen the most amazing rainbows🌈

I plan to link up with Carol who is also in the Pacific Northwest just more North. Check out all the projects.

Floss Friday #169

Welcome back to my cross stitch blog! I was distracted this week with other crafty projects that you can check out here but still a good week. We have continued to have pretty nice weather for a February in the PNW. Starting this weekend we will be falling back into the normal February weather patterns – rain. So enjoying the last of the sunshine ☀️

Starts & Finishes

Surprisingly, I have had some activity in this category with three starts and one finish.

To Do Tuesday #170

Hello Quilty Friends! Welcome back. This week started off with a bang and ended with a crash. LOL 🐿️. I got totally distracted with other crafty projects. Good news is I finished a few things on my artsy to do list as well as making some progress on my quilty to do list.

I will be linking up with Carol again this week for To Do Tuesday. Check it out!
