My favorite neighbor has a bday and is moving away w/n the next few weeks, so I stitched this for her as a bday/going-away/housewarming gift. "Bird Nerd" by Boomerang Stitches on 32ct "Willow" linen by BeStitchMe. Still have finishing to do, but I have a week left so we're on time! #crossstitch

Bluesky, I have not forgotten you, I just feel like I have nothing to share right now. I do have two stitches (Strawberry Naps, Cicada's Song) and three vidyas (Genshin, XCX, Rune Factory: GoA) so my downtime is stretched and progress is slow. 😅 Maybe xstitch progress pics by the weekend?

Ok, NOW it's officially done! I added some yellow flowers, my initials, and the year to fill in some of the spaces that were bothering me. On to the next! #crossstitch

New start! "Golden Sampler Fragment" by "Hello from Liz Matthews" on 32ct "Sugar Cream Pie" linen by BeStitchMe, floss from stash. The big tree in this one reminds me of the giant magnolia out in front of my childhood home, so I'm going to change the pattern up a bit to reflect that. 🏡 #crossstitch

I decided to go back to a #crossstitch I was working on last summer. This is "A Sister's Love" by Blackbird Designs on 32ct "Gold Rush" linen by BeStitchMe. Don't remember when I started this one exactly, but it's only the top 1/3 left to stitch, so I should finish it quickly.

New start! This is the pyramid-shaped pincushion from Stacy Nash's "Rosehill Farm" sampler, on the same piece of fabric as the pigeon, 32ct "Mocha" by Bestitchme. I'll finish it flat for the wall rather than 3D pincushion. Floss from stash, and changed the reds to pinks. #crossstitch

What have I been up to these past few days? Oh, Idk, kitting up a new #crossstitch, and enjoying my skell license #xenobladechroniclesx, and crying about the SAVEact and the Kennedy autism registry BS. Just girly things! 👯♀️

Progress on Kathy Barrick "Happiness"
Got the fence & some little animals. Maybe it's premature to initial and date already, but I need to figure out a nice/easy design that I can standardize for that, because LSEIGG [DATE] is CUMBERSOME but I want it to look nice. I don't like it yet. #crossstitch

Here's my start for Kathy Barrick's "Happiness"! On 32ct linen in color "Sugar Cream Pie" by BeStitchMe. I'm so excited to get to all the little animals, and to change her hair to look like mine (strawberry blonde, long, w/bangs). Dress monster first though! 👗 #crossstitch

I ordered a physical copy of #xenobladechroniclesx this morning and I'm so excited. I never got to finish it because the wiiu belonged to an ex. I've been waiting ten years for it to come to another system. It was one of my favorite gaming worlds to explore and I can't wait to get back 😭😭😭💖

SO. Friggin whooping cough is all over my county (and in the school district in my city!) right now, so I went to the pharmacy and got a #Tdap vax today. Next I'll go get the #MMR, because THOSE are happening too. Give me all the #vaccines so I can just get through these next few years. 🙃🇺🇲🙃🇺🇲🙃
