Parrots Update

I'm finally able to show an update on the Snooty Parrots.  They've been sorely neglected this summer but I buckled down and am now up to the current month's assignment.  Can I get it done in a week?  Well...that remains to be seen.  LOL!

Progress as of July 8th

Last Saturday we had a Tiara Club all day stitch and I made some real progress there.  On Monday I got together with some of my quilting friends and I stitched some more.  Then on Wednesday our guild had its monthly evening stitch-in and I started my August assignment.

July's assignment as of August 19th.
 
I didn't take a picture of the August assignment start.  It's really nothing special yet.  Just the green part of the vine on the right.  I'm tempted to keep going on it to the bottom but who knows if that will really happen.  I am anxious to stitch the parrot though.  Its coloring is slightly different than the one on the left side.  You'll have to check that out next time.
 
I'm going into the city tomorrow with a quilting friend to see a quilt display at one of the local museums.  It should be a fun outing.  I hope you all have a great weekend too.  Thank you for your visit today!
 
 
Until next time,
 
The Inspired Stitcher

It's such a beautiful sampler but I think lots of us get busy in summer with traveling and visiting places that we neglect a few things here and there. Glad this one was picked up again!
