I reached a stopping point on Evening in the Park Wednesday night.

I had originally converted the dark blue in the outer ring to something I didn't likeuch at this point.  After a rummage through my stash I came up either this color which I like very much.

Next, I pulled out SS Daybreak from HAED.  My goal was 1000 stitches.   Since this is stitched in tent stitch, I double that to account for both legs.   I've added 2170 tent or 1085 full x's.

 Chatelaine's Evening in the Park  is still out.  Last week I pulled out the color I had originally converted that dark blue in the outer bit and discovered it was way too light.  So I went on a stash dive and come up HDF Knives Edge which is beautiful here.

Polar Mandala from Chatelaine made an appearance .  The center is now about 1/4 complete.  The rest should go quicker though since that bottom left corner has a lot of color changes and rest is more blocks of color.

Then I've not been able to settle on something g to stitch.

Ann Bowers has been out and saw a little progress.

I started restitching TW"s The Castle.  I originally stitched those 30ish years ago.  It was framed and hung over my son's crib when it was taken by a tornado.  It's taken almost 20 years for me to decide to restitch.  I didn't get much of a start but its ready when I am.

Finally Chatelaine's Evening in the Park came out and felt pretty good so I hope to continue with it.

 I've struggled to settle down with a project so I've visited a couple.

Dairy Darlin got some love and I should be able to finish it next time it's out.

Game of Swannes from Ling Dog was next.  I was in a roll until I got to the bit under the vase.  Since I pulled these colors from stash, the color I chose here wasn't doing it.  So away it went for a bit.

Next is a planned start of Airships and Floating Castles (OOP) from Tilton Crafts on 28ct rose monaco 2x1 tent.  I havent made as much progress as I'd like but its still progress.

 I finished page 3 of Feathers in the Wind from Tilton Crafts after about four years of struggling with the white at the top. 

Love how the hair turned out!

I finished page 8 of He Came With the Rain 6/17/22

 Feathers in the Wind from Tilton Crafts came out Friday for an event with Full Coverage Fanatics on Facebook.   I've struggled with the big area of white on the white fabric for the last couple of years.  This year, I've managed to power through it and start hair.

My goal for this year was just to add stitches.  I'm now hoping to finish the page by this weekend so I have a couple of days for another WIP before a new start on 7/1.
