💖🤍💙July Stitching💙🤍💖

Hi friends! How are you? How is the weather? It is nothing but hot, hot, hot here!

Here is the July cubby shelf.
🎆July Square Dance by ME!🎆
I am stitching the entire Square Dance series, but the July pattern by Heart in Hand is of fish. I just was NOT feeling it at all, so I created my own pattern! What do you think?🎆 🌟Personally, Little Henry is my favorite.🐩I stitched two over two with DMC on 32ct mystery evenweave.

📚One of my very favorite authors is Rhys Bowen. I decided I needed a good series to read for the treadmill. I remembered I never read the Constable Evans Mysteries by Rhys Bowen. They are over twenty years old, but they are a good cozy mystery series. Great enjoyable reading for me on the treadmill while I "burn the butter"!  I am on book number 5, Evan Can Wait. Another great one!
I am still stitching patriotic pieces. I will share three more with you at the end of the week!

Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Proverbs 31:30

Have a safe week my friends!

Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Your July pieces are so pretty. I assume you added the poodle to July. That was so cute. I didn't know that Rhys Bowen wrote any cozy mysteries. I will have to look them up. I just got The Jany Austin Society on line from our library. I am looking forward to reading it.

Your embroidery is very nice :-)

Vickie, I hate the heat!!! I can't wait for cooler weather, I have my ac window units running 24/7.

Your cubby looks great but your July Square Dance is terrific!! I love that you added little Henry to it. Now, I have to go look up the original. I can't wait for my library to open, I need a nice light book to read. The RHys Bowen series appears to me. Stay safe!

As usual the cubby looks fantastic. It is hot here too.... staying in the mid 100s woke this morning at 6ish and it was 91.

Your cubby is adorable and I love the design you created for July; I wouldn't want to stitch fish either! I am going to see about Rhys Bowen at my library. Hugs and happy stitching and reading.........

Your July cubby looks great and your July design is adorable! I would have changed it too, fish? Of course Henry is a cutie.

Your cubby shelf looks lovely. It's very hot here too but the heat makes a good excuse for staying indoor and enjoy some stitching!
Have a great weekend
