SAL Slow Progress

Three weeks have flown by and it is once again time to report on my Stitch-Along progress. Between the holidays and my mother's illness, stitching has slowed down tremendously. In times of stress, when I wasn't baking, I did manage to add some stitches to Three Boats. Here is where I was three weeks ago:


I had just recently finished my second page.

Here is where I am now: 

As you can see, I am filling in the sand on the left-hand side and continuing on the tree trunk. Since I am working on this piece sideways (the bottom of the scroll frame is on the left of the photo), I enjoy seeing the photos when posted as I can appreciate the picture itself, not just the individual stitches. 

Thanks so much to Avis at Sewing Beside the Sea for hosting this Stitch Along.

Please take the time to visit the other bloggers below who are part of this stitch-along.

    I hope your mom is feeling a bit better each day. It’s such a worry to have a sick parent. It’s interesting to watch your picture reveal itself as you add more stitches. Take care

    So sorry to hear about your Mum being poorly. You still managed to stitch and show progress so well done. Sometimes life gets in the way of crafting.

    I hope your mother is continuing to improve each week. We're all hoping for 2021 to be a better year in. general. Hang in there, do what you can, and don't worry about what's not getting done. Enjoy every stitch you're able to make!
