Stitching Stuff: Week 17 of 2026

 


Spring storm season continues. We were lucky Thursday night, all we got from the storms that spawned the tornadoes out west was heavy rain and a lot of lightening. We had some rain and a bit of thunder from the storms last night. All the tornado warnings were south of us.  I will be glad when storm season dies down a bit. 

The stormy weather hasn't affected my stitching time. 

 

  • 15 minute days/week = 7/7 days
  • 15 minute days/Apr = 24/25 days
  • 15 minute days/2026 = 114/115 days
  • Success rate = 99.13%

I've only missed one stitching day this year. Not bad for being almost a third through the year.  Time does seem to be flying.  I'm not ready for it to be May already.  

How are you doing at getting in your stitching time?

Those storms and tornadoes are scary. I'm glad that you were not in their path. You are still doing very well with your stitching numbers!

I watched your area as the supercells progressed east and was hoping you'd be spared. Enid sure wasn't, but thank goodness no fatalities. Yesterday we were under the gun - fortunately for us the tornadic storms went a different direction. I am afraid with all this activity in April, we will end up with a dry May - hopefully not!

Wow, that's a great success rate. 15 minutes a day can make a difference. :)

It is definitely hard to believe that this time next week it will be May! It's so cold and gray here today that I'm wearing my down coat. We would love some storms, but not the crazy kind, lol! Just some rain would be lovely. It has been a good week for sewing, though - can't complain about that! You're doing great on your sewing goals!

Hi Kate, I feel better about just having snow here. I can do without those wild storms. It's finally spring here :-) I've been stitching so many hours on my Views piece that it would count for a few weeks' worth! I'm glad that it's done - on to other fun things!

I always think about you when the storms roll through and pray for your safety, Kate. We got a spot of rain yesterday- not much, but any rain here is welcome. Woo Hoo on getting in a lot of stitching time this week. I know that fills your heart with glee! Hugs.
