TUSAL July New Moon -- AKA The ORT Report
Happy July!!! We have had a miserably hot June in North Texas. The drought is awful and my yard is turning brown no matter how much I water. Not sure how much more of this we can take. Wild fires pop up constantly and the wind never stops blowing. We need a break. Please pray for rain for my little part of the USA.
I am happy to announce I completed 3 stitching projects in June and I have a few goodies in my bag to work on in July. My little jar is getting full, but I just keep smashing it all together so I can add more and more ORTs. This little jar has come in handy, especially when I only need one (yes, one) stitch of yellow to complete a project. So I dug through my jar of odds, ends and scraps, found a bit of yellow that would work, one-half stitch and viola, project complete.
I wish all of you a safe and happy 4th of July, no fireworks in North Texas this year to the extreme drought and fire danger. We are spending the weekend in Dodge City Kansas at a World of Outlaws race--woohoo!! Thanks for stopping by. I really appreciate all your comments.
See ya!!
