 I have finally finished page 5 of Little Fairies at Play!  I don't do any stitching any more on the weekends and usually only have an hour at night to stitch.
 Here is a close up of page 5.  That is 38,032 stitches complete.
 My son graduated from high school 6/14/14.  Here he is with my daughter.
 And my daughter and her husband showing off the bearded hats one of his co-workers made for him.
These are my kids along with my nieces and nephews.  They are a good bunch of kids.

I hope to work my stitching in to have more regular updates.  I am off to the tractor pulls for 2 nights this weekend.

June WIPocalypse

I can't believe I have no stitching progress to show since the last WIPocalypse!  I am often so tired at night that I just fall asleep.  I have also found someone to spend my weekends with and do things with.  We hung new shutters on my house last weekend. 

My son graduated from High School last Saturday and that was an all day event.  This is busy season at work and I go in early and try to stay late when I can.  I am also spending more time with my dad as we don't want him driving as he has had too many accidents.  And his memory is not the best.

I miss my stitching and I am so close to finishing another page on Little Fairies at Play. 

This month's topic is Have you ever attended a stitching get together or retreat?  I am very lucky that I belong to a group called Hoosier Stitchers.  It is free and a very friendly group.  I have attended the monthly get togethers in the past.  Just hanging out with people who enjoy stitching, eating good food, looking at everyone's WIPs, happy dances makes for an enjoyable day.  It makes me so relaxed, happy and gets your stitching mojo going again.  I really need to attend a get together soon.  Then I might have more updates to my stitching.
