WIPocalypse June

 This month I worked on 3 projects.  Little Fairies at Play  page 9

 Garden of Faith Hope and Love

Butterfly Fairies Night.  A little progress made on each one.

This month's question is do you stitch more in the Summer or Winter.  I was just thinking about this as I looked at my meager progress.  I do stitch more in the Winter as I am trapped more inside.  The Summer brings yardwork, trips and other outside activities.

I will be watching the Summer Olympics as much as I can and stitching while watching.  But I will not be participating in the stitch a-alongs.  Of course I might change my mind.  If I do participate it will be on the one where I go for distance on one project.

 Worked on Butterfly Fairy Night this week.  Only 2 nights and stitched just a few lengths into the moon.  I worked late every night this past week so not much stitching time.

On Saturday my sister ran with my Dad in a 5K for Fathers Day.  He was the oldest participant and got this flag.  They finished in 42 minutes.  Not bad and my Father enjoyed it.  He will be telling us about it for a long time.  He has dementia and short term memory is usually gone but this he is talking about.  Good memories for the family.  I went as the official photographer and my brother, his wife and 7 of their nine kids were there to cheer them on.  We all enjoyed it and are looking forward to next year's Fathers Day run.

 Little Fairies at Play got some attention this past week.  Even though I did not take part in the HAED Challenge #2 - extreme cross country stitching, I did decide to try cross country stitching over part of a page.  It does seem to go faster.  I just noticed when I took this picture I have a Fairy and part of the castle appearing.

Sunday we spent the day at Michigan International Speedway watching the race.  Perfect weather.  Here is Clint Boyer zooming past. 

Last week I worked on Garden of Faith Hope Love.  I only got 2 days of stitching time and only about an hour each day.  We have been working outside.  Power washed the house, mulched and planted flowers along with yard mowing.

I have also been working late each night trying to keep up at work.

This week I am back working on Little Fairies at Play.
