I made a point to have a nice relaxing weekend, since this upcoming weekend is a flyball tournament. There’s never much time to do anything but flyball on a flyball weekend, so I try to plan very gentle weekends before and after.

I started a new stitching project, I discovered Long Dog Samplers last year but did not feel I had the stitching expertise yet to try one. This year, after working on linen all year long, I decided I am ready.

The pattern is Pavane for these times, and I am so excited to have finished the first page already. There are 9 pages. But, the next stitch along clue will come out this week so I’ll get back to that shortly. However, both the stitch along project and the temperature tree will be done at the end of the year, so I am primed to find all the other projects for the upcoming year that I can create!
