Here we are at the end of July. I'm typing this on Thursday evening, July 30th. I'm quite certain I will not be cross stitching on Friday so I am sharing my cross stitch stats for the month now.
I completed 4,783 stitches on four projects.
American Sampler by Crocette a Gogo', a WIP. Nothing new here this week.
Peace on Earth by Shepherd's Bush, a new start. I finished the flowers in the top left corner this week.
Meek & Humble by Teresa Kogut, a start and finish. This is one at the framers.
Wilding Hill Manor by Little Robin Designs.
This one got the most love this week. That moon is huge, and it was making me a littly batty (sorry!).
All in all, it was a good month for cross-stitch.
Our local nursery finally got in some decent basil plants. We've been without them all summer. It's nice to have them growing just off the kitchen.
First up was hubby's homemade pasta sauce. I didn't think to take a photo.
I will need to take a little blogging break soon. My Mom's older sister has been placed in hospice care. We are anticipating a road trip to Ft. Walton Beach any day now.
Until then, I'm getting things ready to be away from home. I'm also working on the table runners I mentioned in Monday's post. If all goes well, there will be a post on Monday, August 3rd with a quilty update.
Thank you to my friends who return each time I post and leave the nicest comments. You all make my day!
Enjoy your weekend and I'll see you soon.

Beautiful basil plants, Jeanna. And I love seeing the progress on your stitching.
I am so sorry to hear about your aunt, Jeanna. I will keep your family in my prayers. You have had a good stitching week. Love your new Halloween stitch. Look at all of those bats and the glorious moon! I am in love with your America Sampler ; the colors are so pretty. Safe travels , sweet friend. Hugs.
Wilding Hill Manor looks to be a great design, you have a good start there. Basil is featuring heavily here too as our tomato cropping is well under way.
A sad time for your family❤️. xx
It appears that you had a good stitching month. Have a lovely weekend.
I am so sorry to hear about your aunt. Peace be with you.
Looks like you have great progress on your projects. Yay on the basil!
I'm so sorry about your aunt.
So sorry about your aunt. You did good with your stitching. I liked your little pun about the moon!
I hope you have some special memories you can share with your aunt. Even if she can't talk to you, she will enjoy hearing your stories. You made great progress on your cross stitch projects this month! I like the moon/bats one and chuckled over your batty comment!
The new Halloween project is a fun one! I love the moon and the bats. And that basil - so green and lush - I bet it makes the homemade sauce really yummy! I'm so sorry about your aunt - have a good, safe trip. Hugs!
Your Basil looks so healthy and full;))) So great to have it fresh at hand...
Your Halloween stitchery is so cute--love the moon/bats. Hope things go better for your Aunt...hugs, Julierose
There seems to be no end to the cute patterns for cross stitch!!
Sorry about your aunt being placed in hospice care. Have a safe trip when you go to see her.
Thank you, GM. I have more cross stitch charts that I will never have time to stitch. I suppose collecting them is a hobby on it's own. I appreciate your well wishes regarding our inevitable trip to Florida.
I'm sorry to hear about your aunt. Have a safe trip. Keep cross stitching your lovely projects!
