How do you keep the back so tidy? Mine are always a hot mess.

I'm having a love hate relationship with this right now. It is coming out nice.

Green embroidery hoop. Scene shows a park with people in old timey clothes enjoying a lake.

That little boat was a pain in the ass.

Cross stitch project based on a Van Gogh painting. There is a vase with poppies and daisies on a blue table and flowers on the walls.

This is the first big project I did based off paintings. This one took a couple years as I was mainly quilting at the time.

Green embroidery hoop with cross stitch. A lake a grassy area area shown with people.

Made a bit of progress. All these people are a pain. Just like I'm real life.

My grandparents lived across the road from a Little League field. The crack of a bat is my favorite sound. Weirdly, I don't watch baseball.

It's the biggest one I've done so far. There's fifty pages altogether.

I can tell page 17 is going to be a real booger.

I'm second guessing getting the super detailed pattern.

Garden with many plants. A plastic bouncy horse sits among the plants. Post image

My sister and I got this bouncy horse as a gift when I was about 1. My parents have kept it for over 50 years.

Earlier this year part of the framing broke and couldn't be fixed. Instead of letting him throw it away, I had an idea.

I can't explain how tickled I am with Frank being in my garden.

I'll have to check it out. I'm still bummed I didn't see the original in theatre when it came out. My ex husband chose a different movie at the last minute. Still mad at him for that.

I've been wanting to watch this. Wasn't sure it's worth movie theatre prices. (Haven't been to a movie theatre since Jurassic World Dominion, which I enjoyed)

There is one in Lansing that will ship within Michigan. I've never bought anything from them. I was going to this year, but a farm a couple miles away from me started selling native plants this year.

Rose bush with delicate pink roses. Close up of two pink roses. A bumble bee is tucked inside one of the roses.

While I was watering plants this morning, I found some bees enjoying my native roses.

We have the AC on, a fan in each room, all the curtains shut and it's still unbearable in the house. It's so muggy, I may run to Menards for a dehumidifier.

I won't make you confess if I don't have to confirm how many half finished quilt projects I have.

This is my first SAL and I've kept up so far. I have a habit of forgetting stuff, so we'll see if I keep up.

Lawn with a flower garden. Yellow flowers starting to bloom.

Front garden is finally doing something besides grass and dandelions.
