Work In Progress Wednesday - Continuing with Summer One Thread Challenge
The projects below have all received at least one thread this week. Some were hard to put down after only one thread.
New Start - Lizzie Kate freebie - chart found here.
The Apple Pin Cushion
The House - continuing with the yard.
Snow Days -This project is on 36 count linen with silk thread.
The Scarf - I did one purplish-blue thread where the scissors are pointing.
Cross Stitch and Buttons
Blackwork Sampler - I started the second line of the border, but unfortunately, I discovered a mistake in the first line. I will have to do some unstitching before I can continue.
The Virgin Queen's Pocket - Betsy Morgan. I stitched one thread in the white area, where the scissors are pointing.
The Dogwood Afghan - scissors show stitched area.
Mt. Fuji Pouch
I feel good about making progress on these projects.

Work In Progress Wednesday - Trying Out One Thread a Week
I have many unfinished projects, some that have been neglected for many years. I recently read on Leonore's blog about her one thread a day challenge. I'm going to try out my own Summer One Thread A Week Challenge. (At least one thread). We'll see how it works out.
The apple pin cushion
The House - I added more green grass.
Snow Days - I stitched the blue where the scissors are pointing.
The Scarf - I added pale pink feather stitch where the scissors are pointing.
Blackwork Sampler - I worked on the border.
Cross Stitch and Buttons - more buttons.
The Virgin Queen's Pocket - Betsy Morgan. The scissors are pointing to the needle page where I stitched.
The Dogwood Afghan - white thread where the scissors are pointing.
Mt. Fuji Applique Pouch - I added the flower.
Mini-Nine Patch Quilt progress
Quiltwork (Ruth Dilts design) - I started this quite a while ago and maybe only posted about it once. When I pulled it out, I discovered a counting mistake and had to take half of it out, so next week, I hope to have added at least one thread.
So far, so good. We'll see how the next week goes.
