JUNE.

 We are  now  well into  the month of June already .

The last 6 months went past me so quick 

And we have lost the beautiful sunny hot days and we are now having our fair share of rain, good for the garden thou.

But oh how I miss the sunshine . Never mind I am sure it will be back.   

                              Its back BIG TIME 

 It's back  just to hot now can't sleep . To hot to do any thing  we can't even sleep .

I am having to wear sun glasses now, my eyes don't like the brightness yet,

I was planning to stitch way more this year but time is so short so not so easy, but I try and get a few stitches in each day if I can .

It is so relaxing to stitch I still love to pick up a needle .

I have many hobbies but cross stitch is my all time best . 

Now be are 6 months into the year that past by so quick for me , another 6 months will be Christmas ! So is it time to start stitching 

For Christmas !  I think I will add some Christmas stitching in the Mix.  I had the dentist yesterday and the well woman appointment in the afternoon , all good so that, is out of the way. 

I finished my Spring flowers and on to my next project .

I have also been cleaning my big craft room out another area to do then I can get back to more stitching . I have given bags of goodies to the knit and natter group. I never knew how much I had in there over  the years it build up , also its hard to let it go. The puzzle I am doing is way to hard and I am still working to put 5 parts in every day .

There are over a thousand parts so its getting bigger and bigger.

Today another hot one , and its only early. 

And now it's so hot we can't do any thing !!!

So I thought I would put a post on .

I have been so slow at stitching this month.

Thank you for my lovely Birthday cards which were  so many.

I am still having trouble putting them on my PC so will try to get a few photos on here .


                    Thank you ,Jutta love every thing .

 


  Thank you Gabi , again I love both thank you.


   Thank you  Erna  love your card but my PC will not let me put it the right way up '

My PC is still playing me up it won't let me do many things on here any more . I will be looking out for an Apple Mac soon. I loved my old one.



 

I did get this one stitched for last Spring it's now Summer !



Below is an older one of my old ones to show 

 

I will leave you with some flowers in the garden , before I melt away.






   

 


 

                     

Enjoy your  Summer weeks , until it gets cooler I think I will .
            Stay inside . To hot to stitch Knit or even cook .
Take care , keep cool and drink plenty of water.

  1. I have been reading about your heat wave over there June - not fun at all. We are in mid winter here so I wish I could send you some cooler temps. Your stitching & your garden are beautiful as always. xx

  3. So nice to read your update, but I'm so sorry about your heat wave. Europe has definitely had it worse than here. We've actually been only in the 70s and are often wearing sweaters in the mornings! But, come mid-week, we are going to be getting temps in the high 90s, too. Your garden looks just beautiful, June! We haven't done much at all to ours since we were in Italy for two weeks. We may go to the nursery today to purchase some flowers to plant. Pretty birthday cards and stitching. I hope you had a wonderful birthday! ♥

  8. Yes that last heatwave wasn't pleasent at all, and we are set for another one this week! Unlike you i prefer the cooler weather over the heat, I like the sun but the heat is not good for me. Glad to see you are still getting some stitches in. Take care x
