    Congrats on the finishes of WMUTech, oksewglad, sync, and Janice!

    I finished one tonight that I started on last year but put away for the past 8 months. It is for a gift for my nephew who has a birthday at the end of the month so I will post a picture after I gift it.

    I am trying to post my finishes that I have already received credit for this year, but the pictures keep going sideways. Is there a secret to getting them to attach straight?

    If I'm posting from my iPhone, it does seem to matter if they are correctly oriented when the phone is in the vertical or portrait position. (I often take pix with the phone in landscape orientation.) Had the same problem with the pic I posted below. I edited it on the phone to be correct in portrait and it posted correctly here. Beyond that, I haven't a clue. Don't let the sideways pix stop you. We can turn our heads! We love all pix!!!

    This is the first time I'm posting from my phone, so I apologize in advance for any stupid words.that show up.
    I loaded another flimsie on the longarm on Saturday and got one.row of a new panto stitches on it. I'm very hopeful that it will be a July finish for me. Then I have a couple of yardsale flimsies that I will size down into kennel pads and donate to our local animal shelter. So that should get me a little ahead for August.

    Love the cross stitch too. As previously mentioned I didn't know those were real words so I learned something new today. I think i'll copy the words for some future project. I have a 3 inch notebook just full of inspirations.

    I know I will have one that will be finished by the end of June. It is a table runner and I just need to add the binding.

    However, I do have to admit that I am taking a break from UFO's to do my Row-by-Row. I have 4 rows completely done, and another one almost there. I am hoping to get that finished up yet tonight. My goal is to have it quilted by Sunday. There is a lot of applique to the rows I am doing, so it does take some time to get a row done.

    Congrats to everyone on their finishes....
    Leta - what a great WH. I am sure the recipient will love it.
    Sync - Love the colors and the quilting on the Great Niece quilt. As so many have said, what a great little owl.
    Oksewglad - Love your piece.
    Janice MCc - I don't think I have ever heard that song before and like how you pull the two together.
