Keep up is hard......

 Of course I made a golden effort to keep up with the blog again, and I have failed in that effort.  Why I keep thinking I can do this once school starts is beyond me.

What have I been up to?  I stared a Floss Tube Channel known as, what else.... The Disorderly Stitcher.  I use my computer, I don't edit, and I'm just as real as possible showing what I do manage to work on and talk about school.  If you see this post, come on over and set a spell.

End of summer, start of school......

 Well, summer is all but over.  We have one week left of summer break.  Teachers start back on August 22 and the kids come back on August 25.

I have allowed myself to be creative this summer.  So many projects worked on.

Two quilts quilted by the long armer - binding will be put on this winter

Cross stitch projects completed - jumped on the wagon again thanks to Covid

Cleaning up my sewing room

Purchasing (too much) quilting and cross stitch stuff


Purchasing a new sewing maching - Juki with only straight stitch capability

Now I have to switch gears into school mode.  Until next summer.....

Finally a post, Cross Stitch, Flosstube, and Instagram....

 This is totally ridiculous.... one year between posts.  So what have I been up to.......

School went well this past year.  It took a little bit for the kids to get back into the 'in school' thing.  

Gallbladder recovery went well.

My bad knee is still bad.... have to lose weight before they will replace it, but walking on a bad knee is difficult; so it is a Catch-22.

The one thing I have done, thanks to Covid, is jump back into Cross Stitch.  And, I am loving it!!!!  I have so many charts kitted up with floss and fabric and I keep buying more.  My husband said I will have plenty to do when I retire...if I can ever afford to retire.

I also started a Flosstube channel; Nancy The Disorder Stitcher.  Yesterday was my maiden voyage.  So far I have two subscribers!  I call that a win.  And I started down the Instagram lane;  @disorderlystitcher.  Learning all these Social Media things is interesting, but it feels good to figure it out and I have had a lot of inspiration to start the Flosstube.

So there we are.  I am hoping that these new journies will help me keep up with the blog.  Take care and Happy Stitching!


Nancy
