Another month completed and only the last quarter of the year left.
As always, there’s no plan at all – just thread a needle and begin. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t, but that’s how life is. I don’t judge the daily stitching; it is what it’s meant to be, however it turns out.
As usual, it’s mostly straight stitch and running stitch in various guises. Life is complicated enough at the moment.
There were poppies for my mother’s birthday earlier this month.
Today is a few back stitch squiggles. Two steps forward, one step back, a path that loops back on itself sometimes but still gets to where it’s headed eventually. Taking the scenic route, perhaps.
The other side is just another kind of perspective on where we’ve been.
And October tomorrow…
Onward and maybe upward. Most paths lead somewhere.
I’ll be back later this week with what I hope might be good news for those of you in the USA. 😎

I’m looking forward to October. Thank you Karen for helping me to stay calm during the chaos in the US.
You’ve done very well to stay calm amid the chaos! So glad a little stitching is helping 🙂
Love September and very much looking forward to seeing what October brings 🙂
Same here, Ellie. So glad the heat of summer is behind us. Looking forward to cosy evenings and a nice cardigan 😄
Well, isn’t this beautiful? It cheers me to look at it on this last day of September as I remember the lovely summer that passed all too quickly. Thank you, as always, for sharing so generously.
thanks so much, Stephanie. I’m not a huge fan of summer so I’m very much looking forward to autumn and winter ❄️
Reassuring to look at your stitching/ it cases me to reflect on what I need to do!!
thanks very much, Lyn. There’s never enough time is there… 🙂
Love the idea of drawing out a grid. I will definitely try. Thanks
Thank you, Diane. You can also purchase my templates if you don’t want to design your own.
