Hello everyone!
It’s a beautiful Sunday here in New England – one of those days where you know you NEED to spend as much time outdoors as possible because it doesn’t get much better. I’m hoping to spend a good portion of this afternoon on my patio, a drink and stitching by my side, just soaking it all in.
If you’re crazy like I am and are participating in Stitch Maynia this month, I hope that your progress is going along as you’d hoped! I’m doing well. A few days behind on the daily project calls, but nothing that I can’t catch up on before the end of the month. 🙂 I won’t lie, though – I’m looking forward to the more relaxed stitching again after this challenge. Settling into the June/July One Month challenges will be a refreshing change. I’ll be focusing on I Love New England for both months, and will be doing it as a strand-per-night challenge (one 12-inch length). That should get me moving nicely toward a very rewarding finish!
Upcoming One-Month Challenges
June and July are our two back-to-back monthly challenge months. As always they are optional, and you can design that challenge however it fits your life – as two separate months, as one two-month block of focus, or just fitting in a month in the middle as your life allows. As always, remember – it’s just one stitch a day. One often leads to more… and you’ll make great progress! Every. stitch. counts.
I want to get a couple of small house chores done so I can slack off and stitch all afternoon… so time to get moving. Have a lovely rest of the Memorial Day weekend if you’re in the US, and enjoy your June stitching!
Until next time,
Mel.

Please remember that this stitch-a-long is intended to be fun – so if you’re too busy to post, too busy/ill/etc. to stitch – no worries! Post when you can and share what you have going, even if you’ve only been able to toss a single stitch into it. If you miss a few months, not a problem – just jump back in when you’re back with us! It’s not a race or a competition – we’re all just here to cheer each other on with our progress.
