Stitching Wrap up For June

Despite us having the first two weeks of the month away in our caravan, I still managed to get quite a bit of crafting done in June.

My main goal for June was to complete the red knitted scarf, which was a great travel project.  Tick.

My main goal for May was to complete the solid fat quarter quilt.  Well, I was a few weeks late, but it was completed in June.

I had hoped to finish the corner to corner crochet rug, but that hasn't quite crossed the finish line. The main body of the rug is completed and I am currently working on the edging.  It is just rows of half trebles.  As it is rather mindless to work on, I'm saving it for my stitching days.  I expect it to be completed by the end of this week.

The Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks have been completed, also partly done while travelling.

The little donation cot quilt was a quick and easy project to complete.

I have finally started knitting my Long Paddock jumper.  The alpaca is beautiful and soft to work with.

The last thing I worked on was a quick little running repair on a couple of Christmas ornaments that I made many years ago.  They used to hang on the bookcase door handles at our old house and our cat, Joey, decided that they would be nice to play with.  I don't have a "before" photo, but they had both lost their hangers and the star one had a missing bugle bead and the others were loose.  Fortunately, I still have the container of beads, so was able to replace it and secure the others.  Now, they can be added to our tree in future Christmases.
