For me, this is the pursuit of any pastime that uplifts my spirit. Mostly in creative pursuits such as, patchwork, quilting, cross stitching, embroidery and dressmaking. I also enjoy gardening, painting, reading, decorating, & cooking. Some other aspects of life's journey, may be shared on occasions. We moved back home to Australia in February 2018

A Tad Late.
I've been somewhat remiss this month with not posting my Challenge for July. The challenge title, vaguely, as I remember, was something to remind one of Christmas. My choice was hardly depicting the correct season scene in this hemisphere. However, this small Prairie Schooler pattern scene has always reminded me of the Christmas season. I've stitched it twice before. I managed to lose it once in the street when I was looking for a suitable backing fabric & the second time, who knows? Third time lucky. I have the photograph, along with the piece in my possession, although still to be completed as an item. I really need to have a completion day & make all of this year's pieces into finished items, sometime soon.
I finished the August month's Challenge a couple of weeks ago. It is already photographed so I'll be on time for reveal, in early September. I must say how much I have enjoyed stitching these small pieces. A sense of accomplishment can be achieved very quickly.
