May was May Memories. I decided to go for Making Memories with The Dark Alphabet designed in memory of Lisa Roswell and also my Joan Elliott Round Robin piece which is about making memories with new friends as we all stitch on each piece.
Has everyone seen enough of the Dark Alphabet yet? If so, then look away now....
And the Round Robin again:
June is
Jumanji June
Is it a jungle out there in your stash? Give some love to the projects with animals or birds.

Due to the Small Boy's late night habit my evening stitching has been pared to the bone and now consists of two Round Robins and Papillon Around the World in 80 Stitches. I really don't want to fall behind after only two parts! None of these have animals or birds.
The Spring Challenge for Samplermakes does have animals and birds so that will fit the theme nicely, it's my daytime stitch. Here it is as of today:
The idea is, we were all given a selection of Spring motifs to arrange and stitch as we chose. I've flipped the tree to have one of the other side too, there will be a bird, a peacock, a rabbit and a butterfly added. The fabric is Slightly Lilac by Sparklies, 28count stitched over 2.
Finally, my Giveaway is now closed. The names will be put into a hat and the totally random boy will chose three winners!

Wait a minute...those round robins are totally in theme...after all, robins are birds!! :) The fairies are amazing! And never too much of the Dark Alphabet. :)
