The piece below is a round robin piece belonging to Dusty in the USA. The round robin has been arranged through the Needlecraft Haven Yuku group. This is a lovely design, and I have stitched the bottom left corner:
I am going to be stitching on "A Spot of Summer" by The Drawn Thread for the rest of this week. Here is how it looks before I stitch on it again:
It should be finished by the weekend...if I can get the time to stitch!
We decorated the living room over the Easter weekend. It is now a pale lilac, with a cream colour on the ceiling. It didn't really need decorating (and there are rooms in the house that definitely do need decorating!), but we had bought some new curtains that were purple, and they wouldn't go with the peach colour on the walls! One of those "it seemed like a good idea at the time" moments...
My running is going well. We (the running group) are now coming to the end of Week 6, and are now on continuous runs for the remaining 3 weeks of the programme. If you had told me back in March that I would be comfortably running for 20 minutes without stopping by now, I would have laughed at you! I am definitely getting hooked, as I have signed up for the Race for Life (to raise money for Cancer Research UK), and also the Color Run (correct spelling) - both 5K runs, and the Color Run involves being covered in different colours of powder paint as you are running!!! I have also rearranged our weekend in Edinburgh for my birthday, just so I can do the 5K celebratory run with the running group! The weekend in Edinburgh will now be in September, and we are going to Windermere in the Lake District for the weekend after my birthday - so we're getting an extra weekend away...
Happy Stitching!
