A Little Lost Mojo

I really don't know what happened this week. On Sunday, I was all set for the week. I had checked all the dates for the SALs I've joined this week and was actually planning on posting for each on the right day. I know... unheard of for me! And then... nothing! I think it was my boss' return from vacation. It seemed like as soon as she got back, we were all miserable! I lost my mojo, and didn't even have the energy to post the progress I had made during the rest of the month.

Oh well. Here I am now, and I might as well post what I have done and then just try to reinvigorate myself and do better next month. So here goes...


First up is the TUSAL hosted by Daffycat. The post was due on the New Moon which was the 25th. If you want to learn more about this fun and easy SAL you can visit here.














Next was the Smalls SAL hosted by Heather at Stitching Lotus. You can learn more about this SAL here. This post is due on the last Friday of the month, which was the 26th this month. Yes, you saw this piece earlier in the month when I finished it.













Finally, actually due today is the WIPocalypse SAL hosted by Melissa at Measi's Musings. You can learn more about this SAL here. This is the SAL I am most disappointed about this month. I was really getting a lot done on this, and I was sure I was going to hit 3000 stitches in for the month. My goal at the start of the year was to get a minimum of 50 stitches into this piece every day, but I was stitching at a rate of 100+ per day... up until this last week... when I got 200 stitches in :-(. Still hit a new record for stitches in a month... Ok, let's just get over it and try again in June.


What about my newest start? Well, that progressed a little slower than I would have liked, but it did progress and I am still really loving it.


Well, thank you all for visiting. Please leave a comment, I love hearing from you.

  1. I totally understand your disappointment in not meeting your stitch goal, but any progress is better than absolutely none. I have had those kinds of months. I think your projects are very pretty.

  2. Looks like you got quite a bit done even if you weren't able to hit your goal on that stunning WIPocalypse piece.

  3. You do have some lovely stitching going on. Don't worry about the stitching slump. You'll be back into it before you know it!

  5. Great stitching. I completely empathize about having a boss that makes everyone miserable. I am in a similar situation, but use my stitching as therapy. I imagine it's her I'm sticking my needle into...
