July 6th Jolly July post
Jolly July #6
I have lots of Mill Hill beaded ornament kits, so I've pulled out several to try to complete during July. So far I've started 2, including today. It's a cute little kit - a "Gift Tag". I probably should really make time to complete some of these ornies so they don't pile up...maybe day 7 each week?
Today, Thurs. July 6th ( you can see why I didn't get this posted Sat.) is a sad day for our family. My brother-in-law Calvin died today after an extended illness. We just got hospice set up on Thursday, so at least the family had a couple days of their help, which was a blessing. Love you Calvin. We will all miss you terribly.

Jolly July #5
Day 5 of Jolly July ornament challenge. It's sad in our family right now because we put my brother-in-law on hospice care yesterday, and it hurts my heart to see my sister and nephews and nieces going thru the pain of losing him. Is it ok to say I'm glad he'll be out of pain? But we will miss him dearly.
I did a little stitching just to keep on track. Today it's a Mill Hill kit called Winter Holiday. It's a panda, which is for my nephew who came up with the nickname "panda" when he was a kid and still uses it. I saw this ornie and had to stitch it. Happy Stitching all!

Jolly July #4
Happy 4th of July! It was a beautiful day here, with cloudy skies, about 78 degrees, and a light breeze. Great for sitting out to watch a hometown parade! Met at Mom's place, with Aunt Doris, cousin Gary and my sister Lori all watching Parade Marshal Uncle Myron go by! This was part of the Derby 150th year celebration, and since he was born here, so is one of the eldest Derbyites and certainly has the longest history in the city, he was selected as Parade Marshal. Pretty neat I think.
Today I'm stitching on Val's Stuff "Jingle My Bells", an ornament kit from a couple years ago. One of those projects that I thought would be fun, but brought home and put away instead of stitching. So, here we go for 2019!
Have you noticed I seem to have a "type" in my ornaments this year? Something about that checkboard border must really draw my eye. I promise this won't show up on every ornie!

Jolly July #3
And...to continue the first two posts, I stitched on the June pattern from Crazy Annie's 2019 Country Christmas series. I know, they all look a lot alike, but I promise they are 3 different projects! The checkerboard border is the same on all the ornaments in this series. It's kinda fun, and makes it easy to stitch the borders on each pattern when they come in. I didn't make much progress on this one. today. But, any progress is Progress! Happy Stitching!

Jolly July 2019 - #2
July 2nd - Jolly July continues with the bonus project that was in the Crazy Annie's May packet. This is the beginning of Jolly Ornament. (posted on the 3rd - family concern came before posting yesterday, but I did get some stitching done on it!) Need the white on the border, then add the Ornament and it will be done!
