Greetings, Gentle Reader, and a Happy day unto you.
First thing up --
The SFS May Report of Joy:
Month: May
Spent: $0.00 -- (Don't worry. It will NOT last.)
Allotted: $25
Earned: $10.00
Subtotal of May's accumulated earnings: $35.00
Holdover from last month: -$2.40
Ultimate May total: $31.60 --- Woohoooo! Extra hooooo!
Yes, as a matter of fact I am as shocked as you are. But never fear, I'm working at the shop this weekend so no doubt the joy of being in the black will overtake me.
Here are my earning finishes--- with big thank yous to my friend who needed dog/house sitting. Her excellent light and comfy recliner helped immensely with my productivity.
LKs (nope, not the colors they were charted for). They have their charms too. Can I figure where I put that photo? Nope. I guess it is high time I sorted out the flash drives.
A little bell ornie I've been wanting to do for years. I just love him. O believe another one of these will happen soon.
Another LK that happened post-house sitting. Possibly under the influence of the house-sitting high.
There's another finish -- a little candy cane from the same series as the bell. Apparently *someone* did not take a picture of that. Sigh. And there should be two more LKs, but *someone* can't find them to attach their charms. *Someone* has a lot to answer for!
And then some little bits of progress -- Prairie Moon's Home of the Brave which hadn't seem the light of day in a while. I do really like working on this piece. It is a nice balance of blocks of color and yet enough color changes to make it interesting. It just got sidelined because of commitments to other things, but I really want to see it under my needle more regularly.
One of those commitments... the baseball flag came back out to play a couple nights ago. This one.... I tell you. I stitch and stitch and stitch and get maybe an inch done. Sometimes I think that even if you left me in good light, in a cozy spot, with perfect audio books, no TV, and only this piece for a long weekend, I'd still only get maybe a row of those dang balls done.
Another powwow offering for your enjoyment because:
1. I promised you
2. I can't figure out where I filed the other pics I was supposed to be adding here.
I just loved the rainbow dying on the middle guy's head piece.
Though I am most partial to the shawl dancers.
...and shopping.....
Now, sally forth and have a wonderful rest of your day.
