 Mary Clayton is still out and I'm still feeling good about spending time with her.

I'm hoping to finish page 6 tonight.  There's just a big flower and a "w" left

 Not a big update.  I finished the mermaifs tail on the Mermaid of Salem Bay on January 9.  I started the text and I got hung up.  I think I just don't like the text and will probably take it out and leave it out.


On Jan 9, I started Cider Dragon from Paine Free Crafts 

I added just over 2000 tent stitches.

Mary Clayton  from HATS has come out to visit.  I would like to stitch her till she's finished.

 On December 31 I decided to start Anna Sophia Bircham by HATS with the HDF conversion.  I really enjoyed stitching her but I'm not real sure about that gold.

Then on 1/1 I started The Mermaid of Salem Bay from The Primitive Hare

I'm thinking about one more start this month so we'll have to see what happens.
