It's not really a happy type of holiday but you can't really wish people "somber Ash Wednesday!" or something like that. I have no idea what I'm giving up for Lent but I have almost two hours before church today so I'll be thinking fast!
I don't feel like I got too much done since the last post, but there's been a lot of construction and home repair going on and I can't focus while there are strange men in and around my house. I can't really focus when my husband's home either, so who knows what my excuse is, haha.
Anyway, El Toro is still almost finished - just needs some hooves and horns and the title:
This was a bookmark freebie from cross stitcher that I started because there was too much light peach and black on El Toro and I needed some more color in my life:
There's some more red creeping up the rainbow of You're Awesome:
The roller skate is actually done according to the pattern, but I decided to backstitch it so it's now back at almost done:
I started Chinese Dragon from Riolis. I think this is the fourth pattern I have with that name, haha.
Final start was Dragon Hall from Long Dog Samplers. The palette is autumnal so I'm changing all the colors. But I touched the wall and top and now I'm stitching the next layer backwards to make sure I counted correctly.
A little flashback from our trip to Canada. It's terrible how politicians can ruin things. I hope our countries can go back to being friends and allies soon.
