Okay, what is a Stitching Pie, I hear you ask?
Well, I am "stealing" yet another great idea from my dear Stitchy and Bloggy friend, Jo, from Serendipitous Stitching. Each month she includes a pie graph of which projects she has been stitching on - showing how much time, proportionally, has been spent on each one in that month.
I really like this idea, so I am copying it, thank you Jo, I hope that you don't mind, so here we go for September 2018 .....
(Note:I think it has been nearly two years since I last gave you a slice of stitching pie - my apologies)
Here is my September 2018 Pie...
... and here is the breakdown of minutes over the month for each September project:
Altogether I stitched for 10.3% of the month. This down a bit from October two years ago (when I last recorded my stitching time) when it was 12% but then, when you consider that I am ten times busier now then I was back then (I was actually not working at all this time two years ago and now I am working two days a week plus all of the house stuff!), I think it is pretty good.
Of course, I had better show you all of the pretties that I have been stitching on this past month - most of which you will have seen in earlier posts but not Peas and Qs recently, so I will start with that project.
This is the very pretty Peas and Qs by The Cricket Collection....
Sorry, the fabric is not ombre but the first pic I took was very washed out - see below.
Then, of course, there is my Happy Dance - Silent Night by CCN.
... and Winter in the Village by Stoney Creek.
... and my Antique Roses Sampler by DMC, which as featured a few times on recent posts.
My red bird hearts .....
... and lastly, Christmas Goose by Stacy Nash (if you think this looks familiar, I did stitch this about five years ago - check it out here - but I love the pattern so much that I am stitching it again as I think that I gave the first one away).

I find these charts so interesting. I am a one thing at a time stitcher so my pie would be very boring!!
Very nice, Kaye. If I did a pie, mine would look very much like yours!
Great post, you've eaten a lot of 'stitching pie' this month
Such beautiful pieces. I do love a stitching pie! x
They all look lovely. I don't think I could keep track of what I stitch, I stop and start way too much!
I like Pie! I'm like Astrid, I can't count minutes because of all the interruptions at home. When I go to my craft coffee morning I am always surprised at how much I get done in 2 hours with no interruptions! Someone else even makes the coffee!
