Clayton's Scrub Stitchin' - Day 2 - Wednesday

I had one of those "faffing around" mornings...then did a bit of shopping.

I have almost finished the quilting on My Kinda Town...a couple of stars and the border to go.

Night time - more on the Birthday Flower for April - Daisies.  I have reached a roadblock, as I am missing one DMC (a light blue to fill in the petals) and I do not want to unhoop it at this stage....

I imagine everyone is now settled in at Baradine - hopefully there is a bit of sewing happening in the midst of the catch-ups!

Clayton's Scrub Stitchin' - Day 1 - Tuesday

Well, here is another year that I haven't gone to Scrub Stitchin'.
And I know it doesn't start til Wednesday - but if I had gone, I would be travelling today - so I will just call this Day 1.

I am not as well organised for my Stay at Home Claytons Scrub Stitchin' - but I have plenty of sewing to do...

I have my Sunday Stitchers Mojo Project deadline on Sunday, so I am quilting My Kinda Town.  I had the top finished in July 2024...not sure what happened to it in 2025, but this is the month to finish it.

I spent most of the day working on this...

followed by some cross stitching.

For those travelling on Tuesday - I hope the day went well and you are not having any fuel problems.

Birthday Flowers - January

During December, I worked on a Cross Stitch SAL - the design was a mystery, and there were 80 stitches to do each day....Easy Peasy ...kind of...in December?? When life is already busy enough??

I didn't get around to finishing it off for Christmas 2025 -
The last pattern arrived on Christmas Day or Christmas Eve,..LOL

BUT to continue the saga

A few of us (De & Helen) were doing the same project...you know...."enablers" both of them!
AND the designer (Anna) offers a yearly membership which includes free patterns and also three of her "for sale" patterns for free.  So, I signed up for a year.

In 2026, the monthly project is Birthday Flowers.  I have finished January - a bit late....of course....

Helen purchased some stretchy frames from that place overseas ...and kindly gave De & me one each - and then kindly framed mine - just to show how easy it was...LOL   (not really).


Anna's designs can be found here.

Just in case you are tempted....(don't blame me though)
