Stitch The Summer Olympics


Hosted by The Naptime Stitcher

This is 100% for fun to share our love of stitching...there are NO RULES and NO CHALLENGE POLICE.  I will be sharing my stitching projects across social media with the hashtag #stitchthesummerolympics.  I will be tagging @thenaptimestitcher on Instagram and also on the Facebook page The Naptime Stitcher.  These are what I plan to stitch for each day/event but they are subject to change.  I'll be posting progress pictures here also.  Come cheer me on or better yet...come join me!
