On the Fright Night Friends, I stitched the 3 pumpkins. The two pumpkins on the side of the middle is in Kreinik threads. It really slowed me down. The sign below the pumpkins are 90% Kreinik. My goal is to complete the sign this week and hopefully I can pick up speed after the sign is done. The good news is I finished page 2 and now on page 3. :D :D
I have a new start, Little House Needleworks Songs of the Season. I am stitching the pattern on Hand-Dyed Fabrics by Stephanie Meadow. I just love the colors, a mixture of blue, green, and yellow. This picture is half of part 1 and was able stitch this part in 2 days. Part 2 came in this past week and there is lot more stitching in that section, so that will take a little longer.
This past weekend one of my groups is having a super Stitching Weekend Challenge, which ends on July 31st. As of Monday afternoon, I had made 2300 stitches. My original goal was 2500 but I changed it to 5000 last night. Some of the stitches in the LHN was counted. I have a finish and a new start, my second one this week.

I will be finishing this into an ornament this week. I will show the finish piece next week.
I started this piece last night, Sunday. It's a lot of fun. The pattern is from Stitchy Kitty. I am hoping to finish this piece by Wednesday. I will be giving it to my friend. I don't have any fur babies but I do have a fur nephew and 2 fur nieces. I am thinking personalizing it, but not sure yet.
Are ready for the winner? Because I am since I am done with my update. There were only 4 that express interest in the traveling pattern. I wrote the names on a piece of paper, shook them in a bag, and pulled a name. The winner is.....
Congratulations Meari!!!
Meari will be getting the pattern soon and she will offer it on her blog when it is ready to travel again.
I hope you have a great week!
Hugs,
Vicky
