I've been missing again June WIPocalypse

Wow it has been so long that I forgot how to post - hit the publish button after just typing in the title.  OOPS.  Yes, I know that I said I was going to do better in May, and I surely did not - I am sorry, life is just too crazy sometimes.  This is going to have to be a short (for me) post with just a WIPocalypse update.  That, too, has something missing - accomplishments.  I am not sure which I have spent less time on, blogging or stitching.  The up side is my gardens have been tended, I have seen and celebrated the marriage of a darling couple, spent a very hot Memorial Day weekend camping, and helped my DD Lisa celebrate her birthday.  I also got into my reading obsession and finished off a number of books.

May's update

June updat
All that is to explain the pitiful amount of stitching I have done.  Here is the report:   On my Welcome Friends sampler, I finished the flowering vine going through the large Welcome letters and worked the border on the left side down a little.  I am going to stitch the rest of the message next.


May update

I didn't make any progress on Beachy Mood - just wasn't in the mood to stitch on this one.  I hope to work on it some in Jume.

I have started the June Lizzie*Kate monthly block that I hope to finish stitching this week.  I am going to be home this weekend for the first time in a while, and I would like to take that opportunity to do some finishing work with this one included.  Wish me luck!

Thank you so much for stopping by my little blog, and I really hope to do better at it soon.  I really do love the wonderful messages you leave.

Until next time, have a happy, healthy stitchy time!

I'm sure that you had a well spent month,even if it was not with cross stitching. The things you have done are also important, so don't worry about it: cross stitching times will return:-) that being said, I love,your pictures and updates and I'll keep my fingers crossed you have a lovely weekend with time,to do what you want.

Every stitch is one stitch more to completing something so don't fret and smile. I think you made great progress.

No need to apologize. Life catches up with all of us at one time or another. I'm having a terrible time trying to blog or stitch right now. Just too much going on!

What stitching you have accomplished is lovely. I think you've done a fair amount on Welcome Friends. This is such a pretty piece!
Hope you get some time for stitching soon.

Your pieces look great. Every stitch counts as one less tomorrow.

I think it's really hard to get much stitching in at this time of year... Everything you've done, is wonderful, though, Beth :)

Karen said...

Every stitch counts!

hope you find time to stitch in June....

It is good to hear from you. The good thing about stitching is it is always there when the other work and fun is done. Take care!

Your projects look great. Sometimes life can get in the way of cross stitching, it happens to us all.

Everything looks great!

Sometimes life gets in the way but I'm sure you'll enjoy your stitching even more when you get a chance to work on it this month.
