Happy May!
Ideally I should have posted this yesterday , however I was busy hosting a meetup for deltiologists and philatelists (read people who still send old style letters and postcards) . It was a holiday yesterday in our state -State formation day, a good chance to host a meetup.
I love to host meetups, I have been doing that since 2015 ...however they are a lot of work mainly because human beings are not easy to please and with the world under influence of social media , people don't find any value in meeting in person .
After a lot of anxiety and frustration, I can say we had good time yesterday , hence the late post.
I know for many of you stitching every day is a way of life , however I tend to get distracted easily by social media and watching online series that's why I took this challenge. The idea is to stitch at least for 15 mins everyday.
I have done this personal challenge called "Stitch Every 'Day' in 'May' in 2020, 2018 and 2016. As I'm returning to crafting this year, I would like to bring back this challenge.
I will be knitting alphabet wash cloth and cross stitching a gift for a friend's 40th birthday during this month.

The last few times when I did this challenge some of you joined me, join me this year too if this is something you would like to do .
I'm not going to make it a SAL or any compulsion to post on blog. Just use #stitcheverydayinmay if you post pictures on Instagram. I will post an update on the challenge at the end of month.
Hi Mini, Barbara here, from @flashinscissors. Just to let you know I’m going to try to join in. Are you using a tick sheet for this? Or just stitching when you can? ☺️👋🙋♀️xx I’m joining in on Instagram as I’m not blogging at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI stitched more when we were traveling than I have since we got back home Saturday night. In fact, I've done nothing in the past several days. Good luck with the challenge. Nice to know that you are getting back to crafting.
ReplyDeleteVery nice 👌
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your challenge! I stitch almost every day, but the beginning of May I was traveling a couple days and visiting a friend, and not stitching while there. That's okay, though!
ReplyDeleteLove that you're doing this challenge.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea for the month of May! I'm very late with posting, but I have stitched every day. I didn't realize you are on Instagram too...I'll have to look for you there! Love the Alphabet squares! I really wish I could knit!! Happy Stitching!
