These months where the first falls midweek are strange. I feel like I should have already reported on my daily projects since I've already put several days into them in the current month! I'm just glad I remembered to take the pictures!
First up is the Daily Temperature Log using the "Temperature Stitches" pattern by Sarah "Stitching Mommy" on YouTube and Etsy.
September's stitch was the "Scotch Stitch" which is a diagonal variation of the Satin Stitch. It's actually one of my favorite filling stitches for needlepoint and counted thread work. I love the little pillow shapes and because it is worked in angles, it tends to cover better than the actual Satin Stitch which is either vertical or horizontal.
and a close up. It's been a month of very little variation, summer is hanging on into a warm autumn! I'm afraid this in going to be one of those years that dumps us into winter with very little of my favorite crisp fall, turning leaves sort of weather.
What the entire piece looks like now:
The "Mead Dragon" is coming along! See the September month end report for all the stats.
And I have put about half my hours for the rotation into the Just Nan "Butterflies, Blossoms and Bees". I am about to start the four little over one bees! Really looking forward to those.

It is still quite warm here too. I really like seeing your temperature project each month . Gail at the cozy quilter
