SK Effects of Caffeine - SAL Update 6
Yikes! This update is being posted much later in the day than I had hoped. The past three weeks have been a blur. Unfortunately, not a lot of progress was made on my Storykeep Effects of Caffeine cross-stitch.
Here is a photo of Randal Spangler's artwork.
Only 83 stitches were added. I am hoping to make more progress by our May 19th update. We have university graduation celebrations and Mother's Day coming up between now and then, so we shall see...
It reads: INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS OF CAFFEINE ON THE MIND.
I am still filling in the author's name: I. M. DRAGGIN.
I want to thank Avis for all she does to keep this SAL going! It is a bit different from many other stitch-alongs, as participants share progress on one project of their own choice. If you are interested in joining, you may find more details by following the link to her blog below.
I do hope you will visit everyone to see what they working on! We are in many different time zones, so if a post is not up yet, please check back later. Jess is taking a break for the moment.

The reason my post is later than I had hoped... I generally draft my SAL update on Saturday and schedule it to post in the wee hours of Sunday morning. However, I had an opportunity to help a relative out during my bit of free time before my husband and I left to attend an event at the McMenamens Edgefield Hotel. (We always enjoy the Edgefield, and learn a bit more about the history of the facility - which was once a poor farm - with every visit. You may learn more about it here.) We also had an opportunity to listen to Amadan perform. It was so much fun! (This high energy band has a Facebook page here.) This morning we enjoyed a yummy breakfast at the Black Rabbit Restaurant. (My fruit salad was amazing.) And on the way home, we stopped to watch Avengers: Endgame. Now it is time to tackle chores...
Thank you for visiting!

All progress, however small, is still going in the right direction.
Every stitch is a progress so keep up the good work!
Too much caffeine might not be good for your mind, so it was maybe the best for you to take a break from stitching! I am glad you had such a good day at the hotel.
Any stitching counts in my book...it all moves it forward. Outings are great. I saw Endgame with my grandson...we loved it and are going back to see it again!
Ooh! Going out for breakfast....that sounds like a great idea!
Still making some progress! That's how crafting is, I think. Sometimes you get a lot done, sometimes you feel like you got a lot done but it's difficult to see, and sometimes other things just get in the way. Like Helen told me, we're doing these for fun, so we should enjoy all the work we get to do.
Progress was made, AND it sounds like a wonderful outing which was not to be missed! I agree, that breakfast fruit bowl looks divine!
Busy day Saturday indeed! And eighty-three stitches is better than none. :-) Spring tends to challenge all of us with increased outside activities. I hope you can get in some satisfying stitching time in the next three weeks.
83 is better than 0! I hope Avengers is as good as I keep hearing. I have to figure out some time to go next week.
Well done on making a little progress.... a few stitches is better than none at all! Sounds like you have had a lovely trip and I hope you enjoy the rest of your week too!! Christine xx
83 stitches are better than none! And that fruit salad does indeed look yummy.
