March winds and Texas Bluebonnets

Another busy week at work and only a little stitching this past week. Spring is in the air here ever with a small cool snap.
The bluebonnets and Indian paint brushes are beginning to bloom everywhere. It is really a pretty sigh to see.
Also, went to Gonzales, TX this past weekend and watched my granddaughter ride in the last rodeo of the YRA season. She did really well. She ended up 5th in pole bending and did really good in barrels.
Here are pictures and my progress on the WIPs I stitched on last week and some pictures of Anna riding.

March Winds

March has always been known to be the windy month and today it is correct. We are to have a lot of wind and then rain, which we need here in SE Texas. A good time to get some stitching done inside. Sunday was a great and pretty day, I set outside all afternoon and stitched.
Here is my progress on several of my WIPs that I stitched on last week. I also finished the May Calendar Girl, now on to the June Calendar Girl

The end of February and the start of March.

February 2016 has now come to a close with an extra day this year. Yea , an extra day for stitching. I have now completed 7 items this year so far. March will be really busy for me at work as I work for a CPA and it is tax season. My way of relaxing in the evening is stitching. Here is my completed stitching for the past week and my progress on several WIPs.
