Flannel blocks and lots of cross stitch

My neighbor is on vacation so another neighbor and I mowed their grass and our own grass Friday evening. After that I watered, so after two hours of that I was done for the evening. I was glad to have the mowing done so the rest of the weekend was for fun stuff! I got another 75 - 85 flannel blocks sewn together

Saturday I wanted to watch the Notre Dame game while stitching, but the game was on Peacock! Really? What the heck! After a conversation with my son I am going to breakdown and get rid of DISH and get the internet. He can hook me up with Hulu; he is allowed to give out his password to 5 people. I did spend most of Saturday doing cross stitch. I finish this small piece. I used some 28 count Lugana that I have had since the 80's and one strand of silk buttonhole twist over two threads. The Lugana is a light sage color although it looks tan in the picture.  I ran out of the black  buttonhole twist, so I used a 10 yard spool of a dark brown. I didn't have enough dark brown to stitch the 1889 so I used another brown. The difference in color is hard to see in the picture. I need to get some walnut shells to stuff it.

I then started a pincushion. I had bought a piece of 32 count gray linen and wanted to try it out. I am using Weeks Dyeworks Garnet.

I also worked on the pastel deer pillow top, but I will save that for my Tuesday posts. I watched the Browns lose to the KC Chiefs and called it a weekend.
