My sister reminded me of how neglectful I have been in my Facebooking and blogging. No excuses, altho I have been busy with gardening and my son was here for a few days, too. But when I went to write this entry, I saw how very behind I am.
I finished my April stitching. I liked having spaces between the blocks, but did narrower spaces for May.
So here is May, finished except for one block which I will do tonight. My color scheme was coral, aqua and lime green, with a few variations.
The colors look different, depending on where I took the picture. This one, taken outside has a bluish tint.
On some designs I used more than one block, like this one that uses 5 blocks.
And this one that uses 2
I plan to do more of that in June and will also use brighter colors and some variegated threads.
I also used my page to document some things going on in my life, like finding a robin's egg in my driveway. No sign of a nest, but I do love that fabulous color. I had a lot of trouble depicting this nest. I think the only thing I got right was the color of the eggs.
I'll try to blog more often. I used to be so diligent, but it's easy to slip away.
I'm linking up with Off the Wall Friday.

Love 💕 the colors and the circles.
I can always recognize your work on the FB group page. I follow along and wish I needed one more project but I resist. I really enjoy seeing your take on this...so precise and creative and well done. The other day, I wore my jean jacket and wished it had some embroidery on it..... maybe I can try it. Sue
Your stitching is beautiful, Norma. The downside to social media is that every minute spent writing blog posts or posting to IG and FB is a minute of actual creative output that is lost. It's definitely a tradeoff!
