June Wrap Up
It’s fair to say I’m in the grips of a slump at the moment, and my June reading definitely suffered as a result. At a glance, I did still get through a decent number of books, but there wasn’t a huge amount of reading in most of them. I’m hopeful I’ll have more success in July, but equally, I don’t want to put too much pressure on myself, as a bit of burnout was inevitably going to catch up with us all eventually. But without further ado, let’s wrap up June!

Favourite of the month: Somebody’s Daughter
In contrast to my lackluster reading month, June was great in terms of embroidery. I made some more sales through my little Etsy shop, including a couple of custom pieces, which was lovely. Here’s a look at the projects I completed throughout the month.
