Little by little, day by day

 I have made much less progress on Three Boats than I would like to, but life has definitely been getting in the way. Here is where I was three weeks ago. 

I have added some stitches to the sand and to the tree trunk. This is where I am currently.


I found time yesterday to get a bunch more done as Mom is back in the hospital and visitors are not allowed so I had a lot of free time. 

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

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


Thanks for stopping by!
