Fours Seasons WIP

Since we have started remodeling the house, it’s kind of been a mess. Nothing is in its place… and it is starting to affect my everyday routine. I am going mad! :) Anyway, I haven’t hardly been able to concentrate on anything. So, I am in a bit of a slump. I’ve been stitching regularly, but not quilting at all, and I miss it. So hopefully I can get back into the swing of it again soon. Have any of you noticed if your house is a mess that you can’t focus? I wonder if that is a common problem :)

I have pictures! I have been working on the 4 Seasons! The first time in almost a year. So I started working on the border on the bottom left hand side. The Winter side. Fitting for summer right? :) I forgot how many color changes are in this piece, but that is what makes it so pretty. AND this chart has no backstitching, bonus! Anyway I am making my way along on it.

Also I forgot to post a picture last month of the Jayne’s Attic RR I did. The chart was from Bent Creek, but my job was to stitch the blue church birdhouse and tree. Isn’t this an adorable chart? This was Elaine’s RR.

I'm the same way about a messy house - i just can't focus on my crafts! Everything needs to be in it's place first!

I'm the same - when we redecorated two of the bedrooms (at the same time!) the house was in a mess for ages and I couldn't focus on anything.

Love the pictures!!

As for a messy house correlating to a lack of concentration ... that would surely explain a lot of my problems. LOL!!!

Both pieces look beautiful! I am the same way about a messy house, I can't settle in if I'm looking at the mess.

Remodeling IS such a mess! Chaotic as well,to say the very least! :D But when it's finally finished, you'll be so glad you put yourself through it.

Keep stitching!
