 After Anna Sophia Bircham, I pulled out Come Into My Garden by Blackbird Designs.  For some reason, I was dreading the flowers in the border but figured I could add at least one and maybe part of the alphabet.

I finished the top two rows of alphabet and one flower.


That seemed like a good stopping point so I've now got The Loneliness of Autumn, charted by Love Thy Thread out for at least today.

 Anna Sophia Bircham has been out the last few days.  After I finished the flowers along the top border, I stitched the border and it met up!

July has seen several projects.

Loara Standish has been sitting on my coffee table for a few weeks to try to incentivize myself to pick her up and meet my goal which was band 7 and to start band 8.  I did add band 7 which was the Standish stitch but band 8 was going to require more mental bandwidth than I had available.  Band 8 will either wait until later this year or next. 


Last weekend, my hubby decided he wanted to take a day trip to go visit some antique stores.  So I pulled The Castle since it is on 32 ct and easier to stitch in the car.  I didn't get a lot of progress but it is further along than it was.
 

Next was the Master.  I've finished all the 310 in this page and started on the next color.  


Since yesterday was 7/4, I decided it was high time I pulled out my kit of Lady of the Flag.  My MIL gave this to me years ago as a kit from Hobby Lobby.  


I have decided to stitch the called for colors except for the hair.  There is so much yellow already in this chart that I think I'm going to convert it to brown.  I've also substituted the fabric provided and will be using Constitution 30ct fabric from The Primitive Hare.
