Hello everyone!
July has been a bit of a crazy month with travel, really hot weather, a ton of stitching (hooray), and my inability to keep track of time. I totally forgot it was the last day of July today. eek!
If you participated in the month-long focus, please let us know how you did! I decided not to do a focus this month after the intense work on Witches Wheel in June. Instead I participated in a game on Semi Sane Stitchers over on Facebook that was a variant of the game Uno, and bounced between four specific pieces as a spin was made each day to determine what I’d work on. I got a ton of progress done on those pieces this month, and was very happy with the result.
I have three pieces off to the framer at the moment. It’s always so satisfying to get things framed so I can put them on the wall. I still haven’t taken the plunge to do any framing myself, although I think I will learn for some of these smaller pieces I have in my finished projects roll. Custom framing is just so expensive – eek! The end results will be gorgeous, though.
Off to get my brain and planner prepped for August. This month went by too fast. Have a good month!
Best,
Melissa
