#230 ~ HAED Mini Aquarius Rising ~ 16.40% completed

 Yay, I over achieved on the target 15% ....


Switching out to HAED Mini Magic Book, and would like to set a target of reaching 12% at least. Then I will have a new start.  To facilitate this, I’ve spent time today updating DMC inventory spreadsheet.

#228 ~ HAED Mini Aquarius Rising ~ 12.56% completed

 


I’ve set a target to a least reach 15%, the 300 stitches tonight have made a dent in it.

It too is being converted to diagonal full squares.

Hope you have all had a decent weekend?  Rain, buckets of the stuff, has stopped play here.

#227 ~ HAED Alpaca ~ 38% completed

 Phew, finally reached my goal, and converting to diagonal squares is going well.

Now back over to HAED Aquarius Rising with a goal of 5%.

#226 ~ HAED Alpaca ~ 37.76% completed

 


Stair step diagonal seems to move along quicker, so I will be using this method to reach 38% target before I swap out.


I’ve finally figured out how to do a screenshot on my android tablet, and have saved it to a cloud location, now all I need to do is work how to get it on here to show you the Pattern Keeper stitched image on progress.

#225 Project Sussex Garden ~ update

 So far this month We’ve a managed to consume 12 bags of compost for various planing positions.

I popped out to Thorpe’s at Horace this afternoon and another three bales found there way into the car ...plus these beauties...


A white Peony, a white passionflower, a white Lewesia, a white and purple Dianthus.  Oh, and a Euphoria.


I usually only buy singles as I can propagate from most things over time.  So far this year I’ve divided loads that we purchased last year.


The flash of bright blue behind is my pew.  The beloved one has given it a coat of teak oil, and it is just covered up to protect it until it has a new pergola over it.

#224 ~ HAED Alpaca ~ 36.31% completed

 


A really bad storm has rolled in after a reasonable Bank Holiday weekend, but the good news is that I’ve had a chance to do a lot of stitching this afternoon - 501 actually, and am so close to another diagonal finish.

This weekend we’ve also managed to build a broad bean support ... although heaven knows what kind of mess they will be in tomorrow morning.  If it is still standing and the plants are alive I’ll take a photograph.

Good news also is that I have a day off tomorrow, so will knock the remaining stitches to complete that goal and push on to the percentage goal.

Stay safe all.
