Happy Wednesday stitching friends! This week Wednesday finds me relatively cheerful as I have a 4-day weekend coming up so tomorrow is technically "Friday"
I'm trying to keep myself as engagement free this weekend as I can so I can stitch my heart out and my butt square! I am finally seeing the home stretch on The Accolade! I even took it into work today so I can stitch during my lunch hour!
I have finished page 11 and I'm moving nicely into page 12 on The Accolade. I have absolutely no other stitching to show you this week... for obvious reasons!
Friday I celebrated my birthday. This year I was spoiled by my friends and at work. Lets just say there was almost too much cake! I received two lovely stitchy surprises from stitching friends (as I always say the kindest, most generous people in the world).
My friend Janice happened to be popping into Stitcher's Garden on a trip back home. I asked her to pick up two charts and a thread I couldn't get while I was at The Attic. Janice gifted me with the March/Arpil Year In Chalk charts and a skein of GAST I was missing. She also added a beautiful piece of 40ct linen!

California Stitcher so kindly sent me this handmade birthday card, Ink Circles chart (which could only be gotten with a donation) and nice threads! Thank you so much Annette!
Finally here's a few pictures I took while in SW Arizona a few weeks ago.
