what piece did you pick when you played monopoly? who did you play with,
how long would the game go on? were you a buyer of property and put
houses on them?

who kept the bank?

I didn't play Monopoly much.  I heard someone call it Monotony once and I fully agreed.  My boys asked me to buy that game at a thrift store and I only agreed if they promised to never ask me to play with them.  Thankfully, their wonderful Dad didn't mind playing with them.  I wasn't a horrible mother, I did play other games with them.

I like getting gifts.  It is one of my love languages.  They don't have to be big, fancy gifts.  My granddaughter gave me a loot bag from her birthday party.  She had an extra and she told me since I am special to her she wanted me to have it.  That melted my heart!  I don't know if I will eat the candy sucker but I am definitely going to try the watercolours!

I like sunshine and warm weather.  We are finally getting some heat.  It is such a treat to sit outside and enjoy my deck.

    I haven't played Monopoly in years and have no idea what piece I chose! That game would never end! It's finally warm here too. I've been eating outside on my deck. So nice!!

    I think of Monopoly as kind of a long, slow game, too... How fun to get a birthday treat bag!

Slow Stitching Sunday

 How did it get to be December!  I really meant to fill in the big gaps in my November slice!  I still might.  We will see how it goes.  I got a lot of other stitching done in November so I guess that distracted me from this project.  There is only one slice left to stitch on this project and I find myself jumping ahead to next year. I wonder if I want to do another monthly project like this for next year.  I like having a monthly project.  I might consider doing a mixed-media instead of stitching.  Not that I couldn't incorporate some stitching into that though.  I have no clear idea at this point and that's okay.  I have to get through the holidays!   I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/

  I am still working away at attaching my circles to this piece.  I have added some other stitching as well.  I am very keen to add some beading to this one but that must wait.  Beading needs to be the last step.  I don't need the frustration of my threads getting snagged on the beads.   Progress can feel oh so slow.  Especially when it is because I am distracted by other projects!

 I enjoyed stitching my September slice.  I got out my book by Carole Samples Treasury of Crazy Quilt Stithes.  It has wonderful combinations of stitches.  I have had this book for years and never properly used it.  It uses basic stitches in interesting combinations. So, I didn't really learn any new stitches but I did enjoy combining stitches in new ways.  I might find that more helpful in the long wrong.   The weather has still been cooperative for stitching outside.  The week ahead looks good too.  I might get a jump start on my October slice.  It is sad to think about putting away the deck furniture but it can wait at least a week.
