Working on September...

I haven't posted in many months...life became incredibly busy, and then for the past four months I've been very ill.  I couldn't even stitch for about three months!  It was torture.  Thankfully, I am on the mend and doing much better!  Here's an explanation of my illness, on my blog, in case anyone is interested.  

I also got behind on the cottages because I stitched other pieces in August/September (but all were CCN designs!)  This post on my blog talks about those.

I am back to stitching like a crazy lady.  I actually finished the June and July cottages over the summer, back in July/August -- I just haven't "finished" them up nicely yet.  I didn't make any changes, except that they are stitched on 32-ct Lambswool instead of 28-ct:






And I've finished "August", though I don't have a photo to show you -- what fun that was to stitch!  I loved the colors and made no changes to that, either.

Now I'm working on September and enjoying that, too.  Also no color changes.  Hopefully next time I post I'll have a real "finished" finish to show you.  Though yesterday and today I've been working on "Still Waters" by Plum Street Samplers.  I have to rotate projects around, or else I get bored!
