 Well I got a little more stitching done this past week.  Not much.  I think I will switch projects and see if that helps get me motivated.  I did go garage sale shopping on Saturday and picked up some more leaflets for .10 each.  I got a few Paula Vauhn books and some Stoney Creek leaflets.
 Sunday we went to the Zoo.  The weather was perfect.  We have one of the top rated zoos in the country here at Ft Wayne.


It was a good way to spend a beautiful afternoon.  I tried to take a picture of the lions but the sun was so bright I couldn't see thru my camera and ended up with a picture of trees.  But the male and female lions were out posed just like in the movies.

May WIPocalypse


I have hit a stitching slump.  I was going gangbusters on Little Fairies at Play and should have finished page 5 by now.  But I haven't pulled it out since the end of April.  I have been working on my new start a little on and off.  Again this project normally would only have taken 2 weeks and it has been a month since I started it.

So not much to report for WIPocalypse.  I love big solid stitch projects and I don't really have anything I want to see designed.  I just stitch whatever catches my eye.

Well I have not been stitching much lately.  Here is my meager progress on Jump for Joy.  This past week I went with my father to Holland Michigan to see the tulips.  We spent a day touring various places.  Lots of beautiful flowers.  I ordered 20 tulips and they will be shipped to me in October in time to be planted.
