June Theme-a-licious

The monthly theme was Jumanji June.  I was supposed to stitch on an animal-themed piece.  So I stitched on my kit, The Pack.  This is an interesting design.  There are no partial stitches or backstitching.  The entire design is cross stitch.  I got a lot of stitching done this month.  Don't know what got into me, but I kinda like it.

Next month's theme is Jolly July.  I need to pick one of my many Christmas-themed projects for some Christmas in July time.

Topic: Do you find yourself more productive with stitching in summer or winter?

This  is an easy question.  I am definitely more productive in summer simply because my break is longer.  I am a school teacher so I have more time in the summer to have fun.  I have trainings to go to and things that must be done for work, but I'm not on a 7:30-4 schedule like I am the rest of the year.

This month I am working on Coke Santa by Stoney Creek, Noah's Journey by Dimensions, Snowdome Stocking by Donna Kooler, and the Fairy of Destiny SAL by Passione Ricamo.  I did not accomplish anything on my Fairy of Destiny this month.  :0(

May Theme-a-Licious

May's theme was May Memories.  So I worked on Mason's birth announcement.  I got a huge amount done in the home stretch!  The entire top half is finished, I just need to finish stitching  the bottom and back stitch the ark.
