Goodness me! Time really got away with me in May! Have to say, we enjoyed a visit from daughter & husband earlier in the month (aka Lindashee & Mr Lindashee, or Megan for this SAL). Their visit meant trying to catch up on housework (dust & cobwebs) beforehand. I failed sadly. Lindashee ended up spotting more and going round with a duster on a long stick the night they arrived lol. Also meant lots of socialising with other family members during their stay. So not much time for crafting.
Anyway, 3 weeks ago, this was the photo I shared.
And for this time.
More greys but I haven’t stitched the white on his belly yet. I hope other ladies in the SAL were more productive!
Avis, Claire, Gun, Christina, Kathy, Margaret, Jackie,
I can certainly see progress and a little is better than none. I keep picking mine up but just sit with it on my knee at the moment. I really must try harder as I miss you all x
I used to love a good chat with my mum in the evening while she stitched. Either way it’s looking good and this cross stitch looks familiar, where did it come from, if you don’t mind me asking?
it’s a kit by a French company “Royal Paris”
And penny just dropped . . . Suzy ^^ Thanks for stopping by.
It’s some progress anyway and I think you can be forgiven for how big of a house to clean you have.
A little progress is still progress. Visiting with family is much more important.
A win-win; time with family and a little cross stitching on the side!
Hey, I think you made good progress with all the fun stuff going on. And I didn’t know Megan was your daughter! I think there are many connections in this group. I am just a tag-a-long lol.
lol yes Megan is our daughter, I usually refer to as Mrs Lindashee. She lives in England (not far from our second son (aka Mr Viking) and usually tries to visit once a year to catch up with us and our eldest son (aka Mr Tattoo). As for you being a tag-a-long . . . far from it! You’re part of the group! None of the rest of us have ever met in person, we all just came together through our blogs, and virtual friendships blossomed ^^
A little progress and lots of family time – a win win in my book!
Family visits are more important than a self-imposed deadline for a project. Your daughter sounds like mine!
lol. I grew up with a mother who was very house-proud, and kept things spotless. And think that’s why my attitude is “there’s more to life than housework”. Daughter seems to have have inherited the “dusting/cobweb gene”.
I could have written that too!
I could use a Lindashee dusting my home as well 🙂 You still did some progress.
OK Megan, when are you coming to visit? We could do with a clean up here LOL. Plenty of lovely stitching considering you were playing host (cleaning supervisor :-D) this time.
Megan is needed in my house too!!! And I am in England! All progress is good progress, no matter how small – and I can really see the difference in the little fellow.
Sounds like a lovely time spent with your family. I could use some help with the dusting too 😆
I still see progress! I love how that big dolphin is swimming right out of the design.
Progress is progress and family time is more precious 🙂
