Binding progress, watering, and X stitch projects.

I am plugging away on the hand stitching the binding. I only have 12 more inches to sew. After that I have a bit more in the ditch stitching that won't take very long and this project will be done.

I needed to go outside to water the plants since it is so hot. It was 93 at 6:30 p.m. It took me about an hour. I have one flower bed I didn't get watered, so tonight it will be first to get a drink. That heat just sucked the life out of me!

I have been cross stitching a little. I have to still stitch the stems in on the right side of the John Wick sampler. I think I will work on the left side next and then figure out how to work the bottom border.

I like to have a project to stitch when I am just sitting at the merch booth before shows. I found this sampler on ebay for sale and took a couple screen shots.

There is a lot of stitching to do that I don't need to look at the picture for. I did figure out last week that I made a mistake in the zig zag border. It should be 3 X's wide and not 4. Oh well, I will make it work! I can just stitch the borders and the rows between the lettering and not have to count or look at the picture. Here is where I am so far.
