I THINK I'M BACK

Hi Friends.  Sorry I've been gone for so long.  The heat (which started in early May) hit me really hard this year.  In fact, its still in the mid 70's but does get cold at night,  I wound up in the ER twice but am finally doing a little better.  I have been stitching except not much the last few weeks.  I have been crocheting little blankies for Angel Babies.  To be honest, I haven't kept up with keeping track of my 70 birthday projects but I will try and to figure it out by the end of the year.  Here goes.  Will be picture heavy.

Finish 10

Progress pictures.  (I know I have worked on some smalls but its gonna take some time to try and figure out which ones.)

 Simba

Pooh

Here are a couple pics of the blankies.  (I will be making a page for all that I do.)  I just mailed 21 yesterday.

I hope I still have friends reading this.  I really am going to try and do an update a couple times a month.

Thanks for stopping by.  Linda

10 B'day Projects and 2 Finishes

Hi Blogger Friends.  Thank you for all of the nice comments on my last post.  Sorry I haven't been around for a while.  I have been dealing with alot of leg pain and some nasty headaches.  I have been reading your posts and leaving comments.  I have still been stitching.  Lets see if I can figure out what I've worked on for birthday projects.  (My hard drive crashed the end of March and I lost all of my pictures.  Thankfully I didn't lose the ones on my blog or my facebook groups.)

5 B'day Projects and some progress

Hi Blogger Friends.  I didn't have much to show last week that's why I didn't post.  It makes me so sad that blogland is disappearing.  The first thing I do in the morning is read blogs.  I use to have 40 - 50 blogs a day to read.  I loved it.  It was my escape to the outside world.  Now, on a good day I might have 10 - 15.  I use to get 200 views on a post now I'm lucky if I get 50.  I will continue as a way to keep a record for myself and hope my computer doesn't crash.  Enough of the pity party.

I worked on 5 more birthday projects which makes me very excited.  I really might make it to 70 this year.

24.  Dear Santa, I Can Explain - Lizzie Kate

25.  Alice - AvroraCS

26.  Frozen - AvroraCS

27.  Ice Cream - Lizzie Kate

28.  Garden Cat - Satsuma Street

I am so loving the facebook group School of Magical Stitches and Literature.  It is such a fun group and the admins - Vickie and Kate are awesome.  The challenges are amazing.  I don't know when they find time to stitch.  There is weekly homework, monthly extra credit and ultimate for the year for both stitching and reading.  You don't have to be a Harry Potter fan (like me).  This is the only reason I will be able to do my birthday challenge.  You can do one or all or skip a month.  Whatever there is no pressure.  Go check out the group you might like it.  It sure motivates you to pull out those old WIP's and UFO's.

I also worked on Cars for the above challenge.  I'm going to be using it for 3 more challenges and hope to get it finished.  I know it looks close but there are still about 2500 - 3000 stitches left.  All those white stitches.  YUCK!

I also made a little more progress on Pretty Little New York by Satsuma Street.
