Another Stitch-a-thon at Mom's has come to an end and we were not disappointed. It was different this year, not necessarily as productive as in the past but a great time nonetheless. The kiddos were here two of the four days and we grilled and swam so it was a nice trade-off and everyone got to take part.
Our days started with Mimosas......
Boston daughter worked on cross stitching, crocheted a beach coverup and worked on her animal quilt. Boston girl also had an announcement…..she has been promoted to VP of the engineering firm where she works. She is the director of Human Resources and has been there 18 years, starting when there were 1500 employees. They now have 6,000! So proud of her….as I am of all three of my children.
Below. 1. She started cutting a quilt with campers to take to the campground. 2. She had all the animals pieced for the animal quilt and was able to true up and start joining them. 3. She took time to spin some yarn on the deck. 4. She crocheted a swimsuit cover.
Three of the four quadrants trued up, one to go. 
Philly girl took a different approach for our crafting weekend. She is into journaling. She worked on adding a record of her inventory of everything from patterns, to zippers, to pencils, to presser feet she has to her Journal. Much like us cross stitchers who use the X-Stitch ap, she plans to have this journal with her when she is pattern and fabric shopping, etc.
Willy Man spent the night on the 4th and took Heather's place when she had to leave to go back to work. I set him up at our work table with stamps, pencils and paper and he had a grand time.
After the first two "misses" - upper left - I learned to better select fabrics for the best outcome. I have another 20 sets of fabric cut, coordinated and ready to assemble in the background.
And Buddy cat was never far from being part of the action.
