My last Christmas in July Finish

 

Designer:  Prairie Schooler
Design:  2024 Yearly Santa
Fabric:  18CT Dirty
Floss:  DMC
1st Stitch:  05/20/2024 - Last Stitch:  07/25/2024
For:  Me
Notes:  I stitched on this for 6 sessions in May and 4 in July

After I finished this Santa I decided I was tired of stitching Christmas so for the last 4 days of July I concentrated on Monet's Irises.  I stitched and watched the Summer Olympics from Paris.  I got quite a bit finished on Page 2 but I do have a mistake that I am trying to find.  Yesterday being August 1st I started my August Christmas ornament.  I also started Thread Milk's Splendor State of Ohio.  I have been using Ohio as my 25/7 project.
