It's Moving Along

 

Can I get this done before the end of July? And if I do, can/should I start something new?

 I put Poppers away but I am so close to a finish.

Trying to Finish

 I think I have 5 rows left.

Stitching with Friends

 I spent the day with my local EGA and made progress on Poppers by Kathy Rees.

I didn't take any pictures of the stitching going on around me. But take my word for it!

More Colors

These squares are so much fun to stitch. My colors are a little wild, but it makes me happy 😊.

Lots of Color

 Poppers is fun to stitch. Part of me thinks I should have done the original colorway. The other part of me is saying - just keep playing!

Poppers Progress

 I should be finishing up the needle book but I don't have the brain space. So a few more squares of Poppers.

 Well, it is the first International Hermit and Stitch weekend of the year. This is the idea of Jo's over on Serendipitous Stitching. There's a Facebook page too with lots of lovely eye candy.

I worked on three things.

The football game made it difficult to stitch but I managed to get a bit done.

FiberTalk Made Me Do It

 Well, sort of... I suggested we start sharing more needlepoint. So we are all starting a new project. Mine is Poppers by Kathy Rees. I'm changing from the original colorway to Colour Compliments conversion:

Here's my start:
