Cross-stitch and crochet. They both require counting. Not sure what it is about counting, but somehow it calms me. I count a lot when I‘m stressed.

Yes, there are books. About 20 years ago, when Millennials rediscovered and revived the yarn arts (yes, I give them full credit), the tagged book was popular.

Sace I loved that book! There was a great pattern for a bag which I made and used for a lunch bag. 1d
TheBookHippie Ohhhh I‘ll have to get this book for my daughter!!!! 1d
lil1inblue I have this book! 🤩 I also find counting to be very soothing. 🥰 1d

@Catsandbooks have you seen her on IG or tiktok? This is my crafting goal!!! Each time you read a book you embroider a symbol of it on a sleeve! my hope is to wear a fun embroidered hoodie to Apollycon in April- but i thought the crafter in you might find this interesting!

The #FictionalTraveler prompt for July is #Water . Hopefully our reading will bring some refreshing fictional escapism for those of us who have been dealing with oppressive heat. 🥵💦💧💦

What will everyone be reading?

julieclair I‘ll be reading 2w
julieclair Oops! I missed @OriginalCyn620 and @MatchlessMarie when tagging. Hope I have everyone now. 💙 2w
MatchlessMarie I‘ve been doing some of these prompts out of order. I read Problematic Summer Romance by Ali Hazelwood for this prompt this month. It mostly takes place in Italy near the Ionian coast. I also added Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter to this prompt on SG which I hope to get to this year too. 2w

julieclair @TheAromaofBooks I love Mary Kay Andrews! 2w
TheAromaofBooks I don't think I have read anything by her before! I got this one at the library discard sale a few years ago, so it's about time I got around to it! 2w

The craft for the summer reading program was decorating a rubber duckie. I think Ernie would have loved it. :)

Mother‘s Day free books haul!
We were on our way to my mom‘s and a neighbor had things out in their driveway with a “Free” sign. I spotted stacks of books and immediately pulled in. 😅 There was a good selection but either they weren‘t for me or I already had them. But these three! The tagged has been on my wishlist for a bit. I love that there are post-it bookmarks left in by the previous owner. I can spy what crafts caught their interest. 🤣

Ruthiella Nice haul! 👍 2mo
