I finished my second finish and third of the #stitch9challenge
Why did I decide to do this?
In a previous post, I talked about stitching ADHD when I change my mind and do something different.
This is where there is a conundrum: torn between what I have committed to do and what I really want to do.
UGH!!
So glad I didn't do Stitch Maynia!
I finished my BBD Merrily, Merrily We Welcome Spring.
I posted it on Instagram and BBD FB page.
I also finished my third challenge piece.
It was a quicky and maybe this weekend I will finish it completely.
It is from Brenda Gervais: I Rest Thy Needle and there is a fancy little clamp box.
I have the box but, not the color she used.
So now more conundrum.
I started Chessie and Me Strawberry Alphabet.
I should show the picture on the pattern.
It is set in the sweetest little tray.
I have ordered it twice from the Attic and I don't know if they lose the order or it takes forever.
I have given up on them.
When you go to the website where the pattern. comes from, but all there is are stitching frames!?
Whats up with that.
Don't know how I will finish it.
Then I realized, it wasn't one of the projects I picked for the challenge.
If I'm not going to work on a challenge piece there is something else I want to do.
Now the conundrum is what to work on.
I'm thinking I may work on Hawk run since I think I could finish it in a few weeks.
They go fast!
Bob and I spent much of the day doing yard work.
I had about 18 plants that needed to get planted, a Henry Hole that needed to be filled in before I moved two perennials that were in too much shade.

Got that all done and I'm pooped!
My lilacs started blooming this week.
I brought some in the house and the scent is heavenly!!
That about wraps it up for this week.
Hope your weekend was great!
Have a wonderful week.
Keep on Stitching!!

Love your Merrily, congrats Monica! Lilacs are the best:)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your finish of Merrily, Merrily, it's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe Brenda Gervais piece is so pretty.
I have had the same result with the Attic.
I ordered 1 thing, and it took forever to come in the mail.
My friend had found a design there that she was looking for, an OOP, for a long time.
They promised to her, and put it aside.
When she called back, they had sold it to someone else!
She was so mad, I would be too.
Good luck on deciding what to stitch.
Have a great week!
