Reached my June Goal

with an hour to spare! I got the last bead in the skirt just before 11pm tonight! (I even took a picture of all of her just for Andie.) ;) Here is what I've finished:

Finished Stitching SG's Skirt

I can still make my monthly goal for June! I put the last stitches in her skirt last night (technically early this morning ). I just need to bead up that section take a couple of pictures & then she'll be all ready for her next rotation after I finish Kathy's RR. Here she is all stitched:



Have I ever mentioned that I have the best Hubby? The other day the kitties were playing & running around when one of them jumped up on my plant holder & knocked over my orchid. I have always wanted an orchid & had just finally gotten one for Mother's Day. When it fell it broke all the flowers off except one. Well, I got a new orchid plant last night from him!!!

Baseball is winding down here. Maria had her last softball game on Saturday. She really enjoyed this season! Paul has a couple of games & then playoffs will be next week. (Okay personal stuff over with, now on to stitching.)

I didn't get much stitching in on SG during the week but I did manage to sneak in a couple of hours over the weekend. I am aiming at having the skirt done by Wednesday. Then I can finish beading that section by Friday night. (Just in time for the annual 4th of July camping. Still have to decide to take with me. I think I'm leaning towards PR's mermaid freebie. I started her on the Labor Day camping trip.)



I received Kathy's piece for the MIra RR on Saturday. I decided to stitch Adia for it. So I have to go through my stash & see what I have so I can get the rest this week. Then I'll start her as soon as we get home next week.

Hope all is well. Happy stitching!

Another busy week has past! Paul won his baseball game on Tuesday. They are now 5-6 for the season & play their next game tomorrow. Maria's team won their first game Saturday! Friday was the kids last day of school. No freedom for 3 months.

Maria's new glasses came in today. I posted a pic on my facebook page.

I have gotten a lot done on Stargazer. I'm really hoping to reach my goal of finishing the skirt this month.
